Track Insight / Lyrics
You're in the alleyway, writhing in trash
Former glory, a crumbling aftermath
Of dreams and long-forgotten promises
Discarded like trash, not even a name
[Pre-
But I'm here, an old subway map '82
Watching over you, under neon guiding light
You can't escape your past, but maybe you can
Find a way to rise through the darkest of nights
Neon lights ablaze, a reckoning in sight
Confront the shadows, let the demons take flight
Rise like a phoenix from the ashes and smoke
In this neon wasteland, break the chains, make a choice
Both hands gripping the rail, heart's a breaking drum
Longing for the freedom that you could have won
The city pounds like a jailer's heavy door
But inside, a fire's burning, refusing to be more
[Pre-
I'm just a map, but I've seen it all
The highs, the lows, the walls you've enthralled
This crossroad's the start, where every story unfolds
Take the path you choose, and make your tale be told
Neon lights ablaze, a reckoning in sight
Confront the shadows, let the demons take flight
Rise like a phoenix from the ashes and smoke
In this neon wasteland, break the chains, make a choice
No dusty legend, no faded lore
You write your own, on the walls once more
The city's your canvas, your brush in your hand
Paint a new picture, reshape the urban land
Neon lights ablaze, a reckoning in sight
Confront the shadows, let the demons take flight
Rise like a phoenix from the ashes and smoke
In this neon wasteland, break the chains, make a choice
In this alley way, the flames die down
A new dawn breaks, as your story's found
The city's alive, the neon still gleams
And you, standing tall, are breaking the scheme
