Light still on
Male vocal modern emotional synth-pop with retro 80s influence, 98–104 BPM driving mid-tempo groove with rolling road-motion feel, clear kick and snare pattern and side-chained wide stereo pads, pulsing bassline and rhythmic arpeggiated synth, delay throws on vocal phrases with soft female echo layers behind the lead, mood of late-night acceptance and memory without heartbreak, energy builds from movement to reflection to release then continues forward, cinematic image of a car moving through neon reflections at night.

Lyrics
Verse 1
Passed your street again
Didn’t slow
Curtains glowing
Amber gold
Almost turned my head
Let it go
Kept my footsteps
Through the cold
Pre-Chorus
Didn’t pull me under
Like before
But the hurt still
Knows the door
Chorus
The lights still on — still on
Down your road
Someone’s living
I don’t know
Don’t need you
Still feel you
In the dark when I’m alone
Lights still on
I move on
Not together
Not gone
Post-Chorus
Still on… still on…
Verse 2
Heard your name tonight
Didn’t break
Just a flicker
In the wake
For a moment
I was there
Then it faded
In the air
Pre-Chorus 2
Doesn’t pull me under
Like before
But it opens
Something more
Chorus 2
The lights still on
Down your road
But it doesn’t
Take me home
Don’t hold you
Still know you
Like a melody I know
Lights still on
Fade to dawn
Different life now
Same song
Bridge (drop)
Some rooms stay
In your bones
Even after
Moving on
No return
No goodbye
Just a place
We survived
Final Chorus (lift)
The lights still on
Far behind
Rearview burning
In my eyes
Not forever
Not forgotten
Just a ghost I recognise
Lights still on
Night is gone
I can carry
And move on
Outro (soft)
I don’t go back
I don’t erase
You’re just a light
I don’t chase
Still on…
