Track Insight / Lyrics

Neon buzzes through the glass Buses hiss and footsteps pass You hold silver in your hand One last choice before you land Your old jacket smells like cigarettes Tickets wrinkle in your pockets Dusty cameras guard the door Waxed floors hold twenty more You trace circles on the glass Each bright promise slides past Your last dollar spent in blue Waiting there and chosen for you The cashier turns the brass key down Watches midnight pull your sleeves down A red lamp hums above the rings Curls of dust are little wings You fold maps across the seat Every road is incomplete But the engine knows the way Like a stranger through the day Neon buzzing at the pawn shop Broken bracelets and heartbeat slow One more mile before you stop One more chance before you go Neon buzzing at the pawn shop Silver echoes, clocks all slow Hold the night inside your hands Take a chance and hit the road You found snapshots in a coat Half-developed, now afloat Smiling strangers by the bay Blurred headlights washing gray Your mother circles through the frame One-inch squares that spark the same You tuck the picture to your chest Taste the city through the lens A bus sighs down the violet lane Rattling windows soft with rain You lift your camera to the sky Finding ghosts where freight trains fly The pawnshop window glows like snow White reflections start to go You take a picture of the dark Save the light inside your heart Neon buzzing at the pawn shop Broken bracelets and heartbeat slow One more mile before you stop One more chance before you go Neon buzzing at the pawn shop Silver echoes, clocks all slow Hold the night inside your hands Take a chance and hit the road Stop the lens and count the sound Three soft knocks upon the ground Every farewell leaves a mark Every spark begins the dark If you lose your way tonight Let the broken windows shine Keep the snapshots in your soul Let the open highway roll The pawnshop sign flickers twice Tremolo waves beneath the ice You load the camera with the dawn Waiting where the sidewalk ends The suitcase rattles underneath Full of echoes underneath You grip the strap beneath your wrist Hold the map inside your fist Neon buzzing at the pawn shop Broken bracelets and heartbeat slow One more mile before you stop One more chance before you go Neon buzzing at the pawn shop Silver echoes, clocks all slow Hold the night inside your hands now Take a chance and hit the road You keep the picture in the light Buses wake the fading night One more road and one more spark Neon hums inside the dark
