AFTERIMAGE

KAGE

Don’t blink

Stay in the afterimage

Don’t fade when I blink

Stay in the afterimage

You’re gone but I still feel it

Run — run —

If love is a flash, I’m chasing the sink

Stay in the afterimage

’Cause you’re the last light on my skin

City lights on fast-forward, I’m racing the rain

Smiling like I’m okay, but it cracks in the frame

Every song on the radio sounds like “almost”

Every road that I take still leads back to your ghost

I keep moving so I don’t fall apart

But the night keeps pulling on my heart

Hold still—hear the buzz

Like the air before it floods

If I stop, I’ll feel it

So I run through the cuts

Stay in the afterimage

Don’t fade when I blink

Stay in the afterimage

You’re gone but I still feel it

Run — run —

If love is a flash, I’m chasing the sink

Stay in the afterimage

’Cause you’re the last light on my skin

Oh-oh— afterimage

Oh-oh— afterimage

Hold—then go—

Loop it one more time

I’m laughing with strangers, I’m loud in the crowd

But inside it’s a shoreline, and you’re pulling me out

I scroll past the memories like they don’t hurt

But they burn like a match when it hits the dirt

Tell me why the good things disappear

Right when they feel the most real

If I lose you again

Let it be in the light

If I’m stuck in the dark

Be my spark for the night

I’m still here…

I’m still here…

Stay in the afterimage

Don’t fade when I blink

Stay in the afterimage

You’re gone but I still feel it

Run — run —

If love is a flash, I’m chasing the sink

Stay in the afterimage

’Cause you’re the last light—

The last light on my skin

    AFTERIMAGE

    KAGE

KAGE's AFTERIMAGE turns lingering emotion into momentum-like a flash of light that stays on your skin.
A subtle cue and a one-beat pause open the door, then the chorus lands immediately with a hook designed to stick.
Cinematic textures meet fast pop energy, making it work both in short clips and as a full-length emotional arc.
Made for turning points, night scenes, and the moments you replay.

Artist Profile

  • KAGE

    KAGE is an artist who creates music that exists between reality and memory. Blending emotional pop with nostalgic city pop textures, KAGE explores feelings that are difficult to explain, such as missing moments that never happened and memories that feel real but do not exist. With a cinematic, anime-inspired atmosphere, the music captures fleeting emotions, late night thoughts, and the quiet longing for another version of life. Rather than telling stories, KAGE focuses on delivering pure emotion, something listeners can feel even without understanding why. Music for the memories you never had.
