Track Insight / Lyrics
Static hum fades to dawn's fishbowl glare
Ghostly echoes of a city yet asleep
Rain-slick pavement, alleyways ablaze
Neon fractals dance upon the gray
Midnight's chill oozes from the walls
As he drifts, a phantom through the night
Effervescent dreams in shattered glass
His heart a compass lost, no direction found
Phantoms of his past collide with chance
In the urban sprawl, he's forever drowned
Chasing shadows, through the neon haze
A solitary figure, his steps a blur
Haunted by the ghosts of yesterday
In the city's underbelly, he's the king of night
Pulse of the metropolis, a restless tide
He fights the undertow, it pulls him down
Echoes of another life, a fleeting stride
A final chance, to turn it all around
Neon storm surfacing from the depths
Pulsating rhythms, his spirit's lifted
From the ashes, a phoenix rises high
In the strobe-lit night, his resolve ignites
Through the concrete maze, a path untried
The city's secrets whisper secrets his way
In the frenzy, a clarity with distance buys
He's found his purpose in the neon ray
Effervescent dreams in shattered glass
His heart a compass lost, no direction found
Phantoms of his past collide with chance
In the urban sprawl, he's forever drowned
Chasing shadows, through the neon haze
A solitary figure, his steps a blur
Haunted by the ghosts of yesterday
In the city's underbelly, he's the king of night
In this world of dark and endless light
He finds solace in the city's endless fight
A rebellious spirit, a heart alight
He'll keep on running till the dawn takes flight
Neon fractals, shattered glass
A path unwinds, into the night's vast
He's found his home, in the city's embrace
Forever chasing the shadows of his past
Static hum returns, the dawn breaks through
He disappears into the urban crowd, a faceless few
The city's heartbeat, a lullaby sung
As he succumbs to the neon's siren's throng
