Track Insight / Lyrics
Midnight shift, harbor's still
Pier's skeletal bones stand tall
Salt stings my nostrils, bitter and cold
Staring out at furious black
A city's pulse, a ceaseless beat
Way up in the skyscrapers' height
Neon threads strobe-lit, electric heat
Fueling the machine's appetite
Nightwatcher, scanning the dark
Reeling in signals from the neon shore
Telescoping, inevitable spark
Connecting us to a lonely, dancing score
Weathered, circuitry of the mind
Just trying to make sense of time
Fading out to nothing but a hum
Dreaming of a life before the drum
Then suddenly, bass-laced thunder
Tectonic shockwaves through the ground
Baying synths and piercing strum
Vocal chops sharpen up, lost in sound
In the eye of the hurricane spin
That's where I find my peace within
A ridiculous blur of lights and pace
But in the chaos, I discover grace
A city's pulse, a ceaseless beat
Way up in the skyscrapers' height
Neon threads strobe-lit, electric heat
Fueling the machine's appetite
Nightwatcher, scanning the dark
Reeling in signals from the neon shore
Telescoping, inevitable spark
Connecting us to a lonely, dancing score
Lone sentinel through city's sleep
Fixing fractured moments in a neon keep
Where the rhythms pulse and strobe and slide
To a beat that's always one step inside
Wild surges, staccato fire
Fractured light through layered desires
An anthem born of neon, pitch and noise
Empowering every step, and all our joys
As morning starts to seep through cracks
I'll yield the night to a new dawn's tracks
But my heart will hum with neon's thrum
And carry that electric pulse, wherever I'm from
