Track Insight / Lyrics
Rusty watering can abandoned, left behind
Faded paint, scratching weeds, and overgrown vines
Blue lights flash, highway blur, constant hum
Sunday swap meet on the other side, where life's begun
Hearts beating fast, speed of light
Tires screeching into night's delight
Oh, neon river, winding through my dreams
Where the edge of town meets midnight's schemes
Suburban song, pulsing neon beat
Come alive, my little hydraulic feet
Crevices stuffed with trash, bottle caps, and gravel
Where runaway lovers hide, adolescent revel
Graffiti angels watch over vacant lots
Kids on skateboards, punk rock southern chortles
Underneath the overpass, city's sparks and wheels
Midnight underpass, where secrets all reveal
Oh, neon river, winding through my dreams
Where the edge of town meets midnight's schemes
Suburban song, pulsing neon beat
Come alive, my little hydraulic feet
Discarded love letters, crumpled and stained
In alleyway alcoves, city rain
Where anything goes, in the dark of night
A haven for the hopeless, the outcasts take flight
Fluorescent fog drifts, veil of discontent
Voices in the shadows, hearts in torment
Pulse racing, chasing high
Neon underpass, city lights flashing bright
Dizzy, lost, I'm on the run
Hoping for a place to call my own, till morning sun
Midnight highway stencils, fading gum,
Neon shadows dance as I outgum
TB-303 lures me further, where overpass love resides
In the rhythm of the city's heartbeat, I abride
Overpass whisper, guiding me on
To where the neon river flows to the dawn
