Track Insight / Lyrics
Midnight pup under neon skies
Echoes of industry, forgotten sighs
In rusted fields of empire's past
He wanders, a ghost, aghast
Four a.m. and the streets are cold
High-rise windows, glinting gold
Cars zip by with calls of delight
The solitary hound, his heart takes flight
Oh, he's counting footsteps past the wall
Where brick and stone hold ancient tales at all
He's a midnight wanderer, free and wild
Through the city's dreams, he's got the skill
Rubber heels on concrete dreams
Graffiti whispers, urban themes
Sounds of nightlife, bars and clubs
Rousers, but the pup's in a funk
Oh, he's counting footsteps past the wall
Where brick and stone hold ancient tales at all
He's a midnight wanderer, free and wild
Through the city's dreams, he's got the skill
Dum, dum, dum, dum, dum
Dum, dum, dum, dum, dum
Towering ruins, industrial musk
Nature's creep, reclaiming rock
The stray's outcast heart beats light
With loneliness, but also delight
Oh, he's counting footsteps past the wall
Where brick and stone hold ancient tales at all
He's a midnight wanderer, free and wild
Through the city's dreams, he's got the skill
In railbed grass and littered space
He's safe from the urban race
Fast asleep, curled in a ball
The city's secrets, only he'll hear them all
Oh, he's counting footsteps past the wall
Where brick and stone hold ancient tales at all
He's a midnight wanderer, free and wild
Through the city's dreams, he's got the skill
So let the neon lights gleam bright
And city sounds paint night and day
Our midnight hounder, he don't mind
He's free to roam, come what may
