Track Insight / Lyrics
You turn the bolt on nitrous line
The station hums on borrowed time
Your knuckles bleed on frozen steel
This crossroads knows the weight you heal
Midnight mechanic, tune the dark
Let the engine find its spark
Neon bleeds on grease-stained hands
You build the speed no law demands
The taxi meter ticks outside
I've driven roads you'll never ride
But tonight I watch your fingers dance
On pistons taking second chance
Midnight mechanic, tune the dark
Let the engine find its spark
Neon bleeds on grease-stained hands
You build the speed no law demands
Rain writes sermons on the glass
Each drop a mile, each mile a pass
You torque the head to spec and feel
The motor wake and start to heal
Midnight mechanic, tune the dark
Let the engine find its spark
Neon bleeds on grease-stained hands
You build the speed no law demands
Old drivers know the truth by heart
The machine and man, they're not apart
You listen close to what it sings
A wrench turned right makes broken wings
The pump light flickers, bugs commit
To dying where the neon sits
You fire the bottle, hear it breathe
A thunder none can quite believe
Midnight mechanic, tune the dark
Let the engine find its spark
Neon bleeds on grease-stained hands
You build the speed no law demands
Midnight mechanic, own the night
Turn the shadow into light
Engine hums in midnight rain
You drive on anyway
