Track Insight / Lyrics
Cruisin' the streets in my cab
Summer heat makes the dashboard sag
Before this shift, I was late
Rush hour's gonna make me wait
Melodies of siren sirens mix
With every red light, my worries fix
In the backseat, a passenger tight
Waiting to share a stranger's plight
I leave the traffic's nervous grind
Escape into this iron sanctuary I found
Fire escape latticework a hiding place
Just me and shadows, time drifts away
Nightlights, softly glow
Lure me to the shadows below
Nightlights, a distant hum
Whispers secrets to the world I've fled to
Cramped in this cab, I'm going nowhere
The city's circle, my thoughts' cage there
A stranger in the driver's seat
We're both searching for what we can't meet
He leaves the traffic's nervous grind
Escape into this iron sanctuary found
Fire escape latticework a hiding place
Just him and shadows, time drifts away
Nightlights, softly glow
Lure them to the shadows below
Nightlights, a distant hum
Whispers secrets to the world they've fled to
In this limbo, silent and still
Two lives entwined in one city's thrill
Nightlights flicker, stars descend
A fleeting truce between two journeys' ends
Nightlights, softly glow
Lure them to the shadows below
Nightlights, a distant hum
Whispers secrets to the world they've fled to
Dusk turns to dark, neon fades
Sirens rise, a new day's made
He exits the fire escape rungs
She steps out, night's profound song done
