Track Insight / Lyrics
Riding shotgun in a cruiser cab
Foggy eyes glued to the T, down the track
Clock hands crawling like barbed wire
Cigarette smoke swirls, tasting bitter fire
But then I spy your lonely smile
Under caged lights in a gas station mile
Your wandering hands on a pocket watch
Sentimental things, like heartbeats clutch
In this neon canyon, our paths collide
Lost and found, needed to hide
In this neon canyon, stars align
Midnight fuel, raw desire, neon signs
Fuel pumps hiss, hoses hissing sighs
Coca-Cola fridges humming, neon scrapes the skies
You lead me to your crumbling doubts
I cling to rags of truth in severed roots
But then I spy your dusty broken shoes
Swapped stories, laughter, leather squeaks
Rainwater echoes in a stolen glance
Summer's ghosts, no future chance
In this neon canyon, our paths collide
Lost and found, needed to hide
In this neon canyon, stars align
Midnight fuel, raw desire, neon signs
Two strangers, a milepost monument
Two hearts navigating, boundless discontent
The din of highway, the hum of night
Our collision course, moving fast, out of sight
In this neon canyon, our paths collide
Lost and found, needed to hide
In this neon canyon, stars align
Midnight fuel, raw desire, neon signs
Your smile fades to a distant light
Like passing cars in the rain, gone with the night
I flash my own fleeting grin
In this neon canyon, love and pain entwined
