Track Insight / Lyrics
Empty drives-in wrap the night in blue
Streetlights way up high casting shadows on my wall
I grab the brass scope, count the cars going by
Footsteps echo from my room, the only sound
In the dark of winter, the drive-in's lot
Only my reflection's company, I break the lock
Setting out on foot, I step into the cold
Looking for a light, a heartbeat, a soul
Neon puddles under my feet, streets alive
In the city's arms I feel at home tonight
With every step I'll find my way to the light
Neon steps, these neon steps
Four-on-the-floor kicks under my soles
Synths whip up a fever in my soul
The disco dots and lines seem to grow
I move to the rhythm that only I can know
Case closed on the midnight chase
Squelches and bass lines, I slip into place
Lights turn up an arc of red and blue
I know now where to find you
The drive-in's front lawn, a sea of asphalt black
I head to my rendezvous point, looking back
For signs of company, the city in my eyes
Spotlights dancing, neon arcing in the skies
Neon puddles under my feet, streets alive
In the city's arms I feel at home tonight
With every step I'll find my way to the light
Neon steps, these neon steps
From chainlink fences wrapped in ivy to the top
I peer through the darkness, watching the clock
Don't look back, don't hesitate
The moment's all that matters, no regrets, no debate
Neon lights align in a glowing path
Squelching bass, the city's heartbeat, that's enough
Footsteps echoing, faster and faster
Reaching out, claiming my place in the wonder
Dancing in the neon, closer to the light
In the city's pulse, I've found my home tonight
