Track Insight / Lyrics
Each step a compass, poised on the edge
Of a city waking, darkness cedes
To the twin suns rising, pirouetting high
I'm a gunslinger, no longer dry
Ghosts of the past, like a distant hum
Echoes of love, both sharp and numb
I'm a man on the move, running from the pain
To where the shadows dance, and the sirens reign
Oh, the city beckons, with arms open wide
A neon jungle, where the lonely hide
In hazy bars and secret trysts, under neon skies
This is where I go, to let the night surprise
The fog rolls in, like a lover's caress
The neon hum mingles with a derelict's distress
I sway to the rhythm of this urban heartbeat
Where dreams are made, and broken in the streets
Ghosts of the past, like a distant hum
Echoes of love, both sharp and numb
I'm a man on the move, running from the pain
To where the shadows dance, and the sirens reign
Oh, the city beckons, with arms open wide
A neon jungle, where the lonely hide
In hazy bars and secret trysts, under neon skies
This is where I go, to let the night surprise
In the mist and the murmur, I find my easier guise
A phantom, a wanderer, an outlaw to the cries
Of society, of risks, of the consequences I've faced
In the city's embrace, I've found a safer, a newer place
Oh, the city calls, with a siren's sweet song
Luring the desperate, the dreamers, all wrong
In the neon's gentle glow, I'm reborn anew
A ghost of the night, forever true
(thinning guitar and piano answers)
I'll wander the neon, lost in the haze
A gunslinger, a dreamer, chasing the daze
