Track Insight / Lyrics
Neon signs flirt with the night
Diner booths creak with the weight
Of lovers' whispers, of broken dreams
And the hum of the neon that streams
Through the heart of the 3 AM town
Where the lost and lonely come around
Neon pulse, beating bright and strong
Guiding me through where I don't belong
Neon pulse, a lonely refrain
Calling out to the stories unseen
Fingerpicking the shadows blue
A melancholy tune anew
From the backstreet bandstand plays
Flavors of disarray in craze
Coffee cups clink, papers burn
As the neon lights start to turn
Neon pulse, beating bright and strong
Guiding me through where I don't belong
Neon pulse, a lonely refrain
Calling out to the stories unseen
Honeyed drawl of waitresses' sweet
Descriptions of roadside treats
From the diner's greasy spoon, drenched
In the city's forgotten stretches
Cocked hat and tube socks too
Places that no longer wait for you
Neon pulse, beating bright and strong
Guiding me through where I don't belong
Neon pulse, a lonely refrain
Calling out to the stories unseen
In the neon glow, the travelers meet
Outcasts, dreamers, souls on skid row
Each an untold chapter in this place
Where the lost and lonely find a space
Neon pulse, beating bright and strong
Guiding me through where I don't belong
Neon pulse, a lonely refrain
Calling out to the stories unseen
Neon signs keep watch over the night
As the diner fades into the light
And the pulse of the neon remains
A lonely heartbeat, an endless refrain
