about

‘Overnight’ is a heart-rending track, with Alamay reflecting candidly on past relationships. A gorgeous, melancholic slice of R&B produced by Omar Cassius, his minimalist percussion, sparse sparkling guitar, and brooding bass provide the perfect backdrop for Alamay’s heartfelt vocals.

lyrics

Made it hard for me to call home
I’m unsure of where you called from
Know you hate me when the lights here
But it’s me you say you’re sold on

Let you take me till the nights gone
No love for who you take from
Nothing pays you like the mind's fear
But it’s me you said you're sold on

Know I’m hurting but your headstrong
I’m a burden to your mind's song
Empty letters that you left here
But you told me you were sold on me

Gave you words that you were far from
Gave you pieces that I grew on
But you hold them overnight here
But it’s me you set your soul on

Made it hard for me
Know you hate me when
But it's me you set your soul on
