Lyric

Empty Apartment Lights

aokiemi

Cold coffee by the bed

Midnight buzzing in my head

City lights outside my room

Glow against the blue

Keys drop onto the floor

Silence waiting by the door

TV playing just for sound

No one else around

Laundry hanging by the chair

Perfume floating in the air

Little habits keep me warm

Till the sadness storms

I learned how to be alone

Made this place feel like home

But some nights hit too hard

Like an empty heart

These empty apartment lights

Keep me awake at night

Everything feels alright

Till I need someone beside me

I smile through every day

Act like I am okay

But loneliness still stays

Like shadows all around me

Oh oh

Late night loneliness

Oh oh

Inside this quietness

Rain taps softly on the glass

Hours moving way too fast

Scrolling through old memories

Trying hard to breathe

Friends all say I look alive

Doing good and doing fine

Maybe they are partly right

Just not every night

I can dance inside this room

Sing beneath the silver moon

Still sometimes I fall apart

In the dark

These empty apartment lights

Keep me awake at night

Everything feels alright

Till I need someone beside me

I smile through every day

Act like I am okay

But loneliness still stays

Like shadows all around me

(Call me)

Even just for a while

(Hold on)

Till I finally smile

(No sleep)

When the silence grows

Nobody really knows

These empty apartment lights

Flicker into sunrise

Maybe someday I will find

Someone waiting beside me

Till then I will survive

Through every lonely night

Learning how to keep alive

Inside this quiet city

Oh oh

Empty apartment lights

Oh oh

Another sleepless night

    The Echoes Stay

Before The Dawn Arrives is an album about the quiet hours of living alone.

After gaining freedom, we often discover something unexpected: silence. There is joy in having a life of our own, yet moments of loneliness and uncertainty can still appear in the middle of the night.

Through EDM and pop sounds, these songs explore midnight conversations with ourselves, empty rooms filled with memories, lingering echoes of the past, and the small but persistent hope that appears before sunrise.

Freedom and loneliness often exist side by side. This album does not try to choose between them-it simply listens to both. If these songs can keep someone company during a sleepless night, then they have found their purpose.
