Track Insight / Lyrics
Amidst a chorus of urban sirens loud
Train wheels screeching by with nowhere to be proud
I stalk the streets alone, shadows on the wall
No destination, no reprieve, no right or wrong to call
But when the night begins to paint its face
I find my home, my drug, hardwired in this place
Mindless nights, lost in city lights
Hypnotized by neon strokes dancing through the night
No anchor holds me down, no dawn will bring the end
I'm adrift in this perpetual night, forever I'll contend
Staring back at reflections, eyes reflecting dim
Image of a soul in flight, consumed by unseen whim
Synthetic pulse, a numeric score beneath my skin
Data flow and beat in sync, programming begins
Engineering desire, rewriting my mind
High voltage fiction, lies I can't unwind
Midnight sun on glass and steel, unpolished truth revealed
Urban jungle wild and free, no confines or ideals
Empty eyes through passport gates, worlds beyond compare
Yet unmoored, without a fixed code to repair
But when the night begins to paint its face
I find my home, my drug, hardwired in this place
Mindless nights, lost in city lights
Hypnotized by neon strokes dancing through the night
No anchor holds me down, no dawn will bring the end
I'm adrift in this perpetual night, forever I'll contend
Lost within the urban sprawl I
find a strange sense of calm
The artificial lullaby, an escape from the hollow alarm
But what price solace found in bits of code and light?
Trading heart for pixelated delight
Lost in the abyss, I've found my home
In the city's artificial womb, where I am never alone
Mindless nights, thinning into dawn's pale glow
A day dawns worthless, but the night will always grow
Neon underbelly, my true and only home
