Track Insight / Lyrics
Rusted compass in my palm, the needle's lost its way
Midnight highways stretch before me, city shadows sway
Gas pumps pulse like alien hearts, reflections glitch and blur
Lonesome diner, endless coffee, till dawn's merciful flush
Painfully reaching for the radio, static eats my breath
Lonesome signals floating through the void, no destination in sight
Abandoned rest stops, teen love graffiti, melancholy midnights
A lifetime's worth of stories wait, but none point me to the light
Hey, neon puddles, streets alive, could you shine the way?
Lost and wandering, worn out, in this restless endless day
Hey, heart of neon dreams, can you hear my whispered plea?
Take me to the edge where shadows bleed, where the city's pulse is me
Synthetic dawn rises slow, sirens wail through midnight air
Police lights strobe like fireflies, chasing sleepless predators there
Pulse of the metropolis, beat of my estranged heart
Mirrors and shattered glass, neon's ghostly sparks
Finding solace in the noise, in the city's disarray
Maybe here I'll lose myself, find a way
Lost in labyrinthine alleys, concrete canyons close in
Neon crosses bleed into rainbows, as my faith begins
Street performers weave their spells, fire dancers twirl nighttime
Magical escape from despair, in this wild cosmopolitan shrine
Hey, neon puddles, streets alive, could you shine the way?
Lost and wandering, worn out, in this restless endless day
Hey, heart of neon dreams, can you hear my whispered plea?
Take me to the edge where shadows bleed, where the city's pulse is me
Then and now collide in stages, ghosts of lovers leave their marks
Shattered windows, scattered trash, echoes of chased hearts
Yet in the wreckage hope unfurls
in the gritty beauty that remains
Maybe here I'll find my direction, in neon's endless refrains
Pulse of the metropolis, beat of my estranged heart
Mirrors and shattered glass, neon's ghostly sparks
Finding solace in the noise, in the city's disarray
Maybe here I'll lose myself, find a way
Neon lights ascend to heaven as
I let the city guide me home
Rusty compass back in my pocket, a new path starts to glow.
