Wet pavement glows in cobalt blue
I walk the grid to find a clue
My copper wires hum a song
I search for where the lost belong
Cold alley wind hits like a blade
I seek a place to hide in shade
A yellow eye looks from a heap
Where broken metal falls asleep
Curl up close on this old foam bed
Soft white fur and a glowing head
Warmth in steel and a steady beat
Safe away from the rainy street
I feel your breath against my shell
A secret kind of magic spell
You purr a tune of gold and grey
While all the city fades away
Curl up close on this old foam bed
Soft white fur and a glowing head
Warmth in steel and a steady beat
Safe away from the rainy street
The skyline burns in acid green
The strangest pair you've ever seen
A rusted heart and a velvet paw
Beyond the reach of any law
My sensors read a gentle heat
A rhythmic pulse, a tiny beat
I keep the winter from your skin
Until the morning light creeps in
We share a space of grease and rust
Two lonely souls in a cloud of dust
The concrete hums a low refrain
To wash away the city stain
Curl up close on this old foam bed
Soft white fur and a glowing head
Warmth in steel and a steady beat
Safe away from the rainy street
Curl up close on this old foam bed
Soft white fur and a glowing head
Warmth in steel and a steady beat
Safe away from the rainy street
Just a spark in the deep below
Nowhere left for the two to go
