Midnight Tesla Tramp

[Verse] Late at night in the darkness In a Tesla bound for nowhere I met an old man driving His face worn from dawn's wear [Verse 2] Spoke of days when steam arose From river boats on Mississippi lines "Son We've traded hearts for lithium And dreams for dollar signs" [Chorus] But oh The wheel keeps turning In this quiet hum we're learning We’re bound by unseen chains Lost in digital refrains [Verse 3] We rode through empty highways Neon lights and plastic trees He sighed "These roads ain't what they promised More lost souls in the breeze" [Bridge] He handed me a crumpled map Said "Here’s where all my ghosts reside" In every crease A tale to tell Of forgotten loves and pride [Verse 4] We reached a town of hollow homes Where screens replaced each touch He whispered “Change is comin’ But does it change too much?" [Verse] Neon glow and busy streets Lost in the night we feel the beat Feet tapping echoes loud Don't need words in the crowd [Verse 2] Taxi horns and bright marquees City whispers sordid dreams Sidewalk pulses heart of steel We chase the rush we feel [Chorus] City lights they shine so bright Lost in shadows of the night Dancing till the dawn we see This electric harmony [Verse 3] Skyscrapers tall they touch the sky Look up high and wonder why Concrete jungle on the move Find yourself in this groove [Verse 4] From uptown to downtown lanes Feel the rhythm feel the rain Sleepless city never sleeps Secrets hidden shadows keep [Bridge] Brothers sisters strangers too In this dance we feel brand new Every step each heartbeat sway Under lights we find our way [Verse] Golden skies glow bright We run into the night Hearts racing in delight Sunsets in our sight [Verse 2] Colors paint the air We dance without a care Loving this wild affair Moments that we share [Chorus] Chasing sunsets every day Never let the light slip away Feel the warmth in every ray We will always find our way [Verse 3] Shadows growing long Whispering our song Together we belong In this world so strong [Bridge] Miles we've yet to go In the orange and rose Through the ebb and flow Love will always show [Chorus] Chasing sunsets every day Never let the light slip away Feel the warmth in every ray We will always find our way
