Lyric

The Echoes Stay

aokiemi

Midnight fills the room

Shadows stretch across the floor

The city sleeps outside

But I still hear your voice

Your coffee cup remains

Where you left it that last day

I tell myself to move it

But somehow it still stays

The curtains barely move

In the restless evening air

Every corner of this house

Reminds me you were there

I keep reaching through the dark

For a hand that's disappeared

Holding onto memories

That slowly reappear

The echoes stay

Long after you're gone

Calling my name

When the night comes on

The echoes stay

Inside every wall

I thought time would fade them

But they survive it all

Oh oh

I still hear the sound

Oh oh

Of you around

The echoes stay

The echoes stay

The echoes stay

The hallway feels alive

With footsteps that are not there

A thousand little ghosts

Floating through the air

I know it's just my mind

Playing tricks again tonight

But every fading memory

Feels painfully alive

Every silence feels too loud

Every room becomes a sea

And I keep drifting farther

From who I used to be

The echoes stay

Long after you're gone

Calling my name

When the night comes on

The echoes stay

Inside every wall

I thought time would fade them

But they survive it all

If I close my eyes

You're standing near

Then morning comes

And you disappear

The echoes stay

Long after you're gone

Like distant lights

Before the break of dawn

The echoes stay

Inside every room

Following me slowly

Through the quiet gloom

Oh oh

The echoes stay

Oh oh

They never fade

    The Echoes Stay

    aokiemi

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.
