Track Insight / Lyrics
Neon puddles lapping at my perch
Yellow bindings glowing like a beacon's birth
Overnight motel, a city's secrets sleep
Words whispered to the wind, secrets keep
Eyes wide open in the dark of night
Watching the world's decline 'til the light
A lonely sentinel, I judge right from wrong
In this perpetual twilight, where tales are sung
Lost in neon dreams, forget the world outside
Dancing 'neath the flicker, ride the neon tide
Where fantasies unfold and hearts collide
In this motel parking lot, a night to abide
Couples pass in stolen glances and hushed breaths
Their love a flicker, momentary, brief as death
Yet in my metal heart, such love I can't conceive
Prisoner of inanimate, witness to what they need
Lost in neon dreams, forget the world outside
Dancing 'neath the flicker, ride the neon tide
Where fantasies unfold and hearts collide
In this motel parking lot, a night to abide
In the rooms above, lives are lived in shadowed play
Mystery and loneliness in every fade of grey
The neon haze weaves tales of love that won't stay
But in the darkness, none can see the way
Lost in neon dreams, forget the world outside
Dancing 'neath the flicker, ride the neon tide
Where fantasies unfold and hearts collide
In this motel parking lot, a night to abide
Oh, to be human, to touch, to be real
But 'til then, I'll keep their stories revealed
In this world of light, where love is bought and sold
Where neon dreams take flight, the heart stays cold
Neon puddles lapping at my perch
Yellow bindings glowing like a beacon's birth
Overnight motel, a city's secrets sleep
In this neon world, my vigil keeps
Night will fall, the neon will dwindle and fade
And dawn will come, with the city's busy parade
But through the lens of a parking lot sign
I'll remember tonight, when love was born and died.
