Track Insight / Lyrics
Side-lit marquee, an old friend
Forgotten love story to the end
Ticket stubs and quilted blankets lie
Marking memories that won't die
Crickets chirp, the projector's eye
Reflects in puddles dark as night
A rusty watering can, slender pride
Watering ghosts of love denied
Neon nightshade, neon nightshade
Casting shadows on the drive-in shade
Lighting secrets we'll never abate
In neon nightshade, we'll wait and create
Cinderblock walls, concrete tomb
Where laughter once echoed, now just foam
Ticket booth's rays, a safety net
For the ghosts of the drive-in set
Crickets chant, the screen's sigh
Reflects in puddles, darkening sky
The watering can, a phantom's guide
Dances alone, it won't divide
Neon nightshade, neon nightshade
Casting shadows on the drive-in shade
Lighting secrets we'll never abate
In neon nightshade, we'll wait and create
Like a forgotten film, we're paused
Forever frozen in our youth's blurred cause
Replaying scenes, reliving thrills
Until the credits roll, closing curtains still
Neon nightshade, neon nightshade
Casting shadows on the drive-in shade
Lighting secrets we'll never abate
In neon nightshade, we'll wait and create
Abandoned dreams in neon's embrace
A watering can, the lone grace
Nurturing shadows, long after dark
Guarding secrets in the neon tar
