Track Insight / Lyrics
Neon puddles, rhythmic chatterbox ground
Footsteps echo in a lonely town
Whispers of lives catching wind and leave
A solitary pulse, an instant's relief
[Pre-
In sterile hollows of the neon maze
Flashing signs, their eerie painted daze
Advertising false promises of escape
From the cold inexorable voided space
And I'm lost in the neon night
Chasing shadows, flickering delight
Neon nightshade, my perpetual plight
Commuting through the neon night
[Build-
Tire tracks worn, gravel crunch beneath
Dusty retinas and the parked Witnessess
Of lives displaced, a human geography
Velocity in the shadows of the city's ecstasy
Neon nightshade, pulse and fade
Throb and bleed in the neon shade
Neon nightshade, endless drudge
Lost in neon, unsung in the pledge
The roaring hum of neon's gilded cage
A masquerade of light in endless rage
From one sterile packeted dream to the next
Fleeting rebirth in a desensitized sect
And I'm lost in the neon night
Chasing shadows, flickering delight
Neon nightshade, my perpetual plight
Commuting through the neon night
In fluid succession, the city sleeps
951 and dreamless, artificial keep
As I navigate, my steps unsure
Through subway stations, a lifecycle
Neon nightshade, pulse and fade
Throb and bleed in the neon shade
Neon nightshade, endless drudge
Lost in neon, unsung in the pledge
The neon glow hum, my lullaby
drifting through the city's indifferent sky
As I dissolve back into the scenery
An unnoticed specter of the neon dreamery
