Ghosts of the Neon

[Verse] Wires pulse the city's breath shadows hide the mess Lurking screams from alleys deep spill into the midnight creep Skies torn open streets that bleed truth gets lost in hungry greed Whispers linger in the smoke none's the wiser none's the hope [Verse 2] Music’s crashing broken bone in the corners shivers groan Basement clubs where truths unfold silent cries not growing old Words like daggers pierce the dome can't find silence can't find home Walls close in on shattered souls running wild on burning coals [Chorus] Ghosts of the neon fade away chasing the emptiness of day Falling like ashes in the breeze caught in the nightmare can't appease [Verse 3] Concrete jungle falling fast nothing sacred nothing lasts Haunted train rides trackless fear leaving nothing but a tear Flashes of a life not there echoes fill the haunting air Breaking dawn yet still it hides the shadows dance till hope subsides [Verse 4] Fingers grasp at fleeting truth window panes reflect the youth Chasing dreams they can't define hearts are broken without sign Neon lights that flicker grey in the night they lose their say Lost within the flashing screens life dissolves to fading dreams [Bridge] Empty laughter broken notes sinking boat that never floats Voices echo through the void scream at fate they can’t avoid Echoing through haunted halls waiting for the final calls Ripped apart by savage time left alone no reason rhyme
