Track Insight / Lyrics
Rust, shine, in neon's light
Under ferry docks at first light
A worn compass, heart alight
With bearings to a distant night
Battered leather, scratched and worn
Guiding me to where I've never been born
No sign of dawn, no notion of morn
Just me, alone, beneath the neon scorn
Quiet defiance, midnight wanderlust
Restless, seeking, forever in the rush
No concrete route, no familiar sun
I'll follow my own, and have just begun
Shelter under neon, refuge from the night
Guiding my journey, till the first light
Through the city's maze, I'll find my way
Under neon, to a brighter day
Rust, shine, in neon's glow
Reflections of lives I'll never know
Their stories, their dreams, their destinations
Echoing off the waves, in this solitude
Quiet defiance, midnight wanderlust
Restless, seeking, forever in the rush
No concrete route, no familiar sun
I'll follow my own, and have just begun
Shelter under neon, refuge from the night
Guiding my journey, till the first light
Through the city's maze, I'll find my way
Under neon, to a brighter day
Leaning on the dock, against the tide
Pacing the lines, I let my spirit glide
Tapping the compass, to recalibrate
Mapping my path, through the city's divide
Shelter under neon, refuge from the night
Guiding my journey, till the first light
Through the city's maze, I'll find my way
Under neon, to a brighter day
Rust, shine, in neon's haze
Hearts aglow, as dawn arrises
I'll hold my bearings, never astray
Guided to a new horizon's rays
