Track Insight / Lyrics
I'm the lone pilot, standing on the flight deck
Checking thrusters, tired, my heart a heavy weight
Behind me, a drive-in, gone to seed and wrecked
Neon lights reflecting off the dew, so far away
My thoughts drift out to the empty parking lot
Where lovers once sat close, dreaming of a shot
But now it's just me, the stars and some machines
Trying to find my place, chasing all my dreams
The silence creeps in, hard to ignore
What drives me on, to live to fight some more
Neon thrill, I chase the glint
Dust and sparks, a lonely sprint
Fueling up, feeling alive
Neon thrill, ride or die
I've got a plan, a vision, my own way to fly
Commute through the night, 'til the sun starts to rise
Fueling up on small town diners, cheap coffee and pie
Passing by the abandoned drive-in, wondering why
They let that dream die, those summer nights so bright
Now it's just a memory, a fading light
But now it's just me, the stars and some machines
Trying to find my place, chasing all my dreams
The silence creeps in, hard to ignore
What drives me on, to live to fight some more
Neon thrill, I chase the glint
Dust and sparks, a lonely sprint
Fueling up, feeling alive
Neon thrill, ride or die
No ghosts, no regrets, just fuel and a plane
Took the leap, left the past in vain
For the thrill of the night, the rush of the unknown
I won't stop, until my journey's shown
Neon thrill, I chase the glint
Dust and sparks, a lonely sprint
Fueling up, feeling alive
Neon thrill, ride or die
Neon lights, fading in the dawn
Me and the plane, flying on
Tired eyes on the horizon's glow
The neon thrill, I know I'll never let it go
