Underneath the Neon Sky

Verse 1

Concrete still holding heat from the sun

Windows glowing like a thousand fires

I'm just a silhouette in all this light

Ten years on the same four corners

Watching everything go up and climb

Every scar I kept is currency now

Paid to wait for something bigger than me

So I stay put, watch it change around me

Nineteen turning into twenty-three

Pre-Chorus

Something's pulling in the heavy stuff

Chorus

Underneath the neon sky

I feel it coming and I won't ask why

This is what was always meant for me

I am underneath the neon sky

Verse 2

Streetlights flicker, then they come alive

Every color bleeding into blue

Sirens soft now, distant traffic hum

Bass from that open window, shaking my thumb

I used to count down every passing day

Now I'm standing in a different kind of way

The fire escapes are glowing gold and white

I built this body for one final fight

Not for glory, not to prove a point

Just the feeling when everything goes right

Pre-Chorus

Something's pulling in the heavy stuff

Chorus

Underneath the neon sky

I feel it coming and I won't ask why

This is what was always meant for me

I am underneath the neon sky

Bridge

Maybe this is where all the waiting ends

Maybe tomorrow morning I start again

No more shadow leaning on a stranger's wall

I am standing tall under everything that falls

Chorus

Underneath the neon sky

I feel it coming and I won't ask why

This is what was always meant for me

I am underneath the neon sky
