Track Insight / Lyrics
Shimmering city lights dance in summer dusk
Neon signs flicker, mapping out my rush
Lost in tunnels, I track the past
On a subway map from '82 at last
Creeping metal spikes on an iron fire escape high
Climbing slow, I search for a glimpse of the city sky
Dusty maps, torn and worn, reveal secrets of the night
Passerby whispers, a forgotten fight
Safely hidden from the public eye
A stranger's tale, a long-lost sigh
Neon tracks that wind and twist, guiding me
Through the shadows of what's been, to set me free
Each illuminated path, a story yet untold
Paving the way to a love grown cold
Abandoned stations, traincars in decay
Echoes of lives lived, ghosts that drift away
Forgotten love letters, crumpled and stained with tears
Unspoken words that fester, years and years
Safely hidden from the public eye
A stranger's tale, a long-lost sigh
Neon tracks that wind and twist, guiding me
Through the shadows of what's been, to set me free
Each illuminated path, a story yet untold
Paving the way to a love grown cold
As I climb the metal ladder, higher still I rise
Toward a sky that's darkening, selfish stars that glimmer wise
The city's heartbeat pulsing, rhythm of the underground
A symphony that speaks, ancient secrets unbound
Neon tracks that wind and twist, guiding me
Through the shadows of what's been, to set me free
Each illuminated path, a story yet untold
Paving the way to our love, now made bold
Homeward I creep, shadows following close
A stranger's tale, forever lost in neon glows
