Bailando nos trilhos (version 2)

Verse

Neon cuts across my eyes like a blade

Concrete turns to water under tire marks made

Engine hum, smoke trail behind

Every street I take, one more piece I leave behind

Rust on chain-link, wire in the dark

Bassline climbs up through my chest like a spark

Tires kiss the black and never look back

The city's my mirror, every skid a crack

I lose myself before I touch the ground

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel the street fold under me?

Every turn is one more mile of being free

Chorus

Drifting through São Paulo in the dark

Picking up where yesterday left its mark

Bailando nos trilhos, losing every line

Verse

Sidewalk turns to water under steel and heat

Rearview shatters into a million different streets

Floor drops out from under, engine never stops

Every favela alley's another way I drop my grip

Sirens scream behind while I turn the bend

Neon bleeding into daybreak through the window of my mind

I don't need the mirror when the road does for me

Bailando nos trilhos is the only truth there'll be

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel the street fold under me?

Every turn is one more mile of being free

Chorus

Drifting through São Paulo in the dark

Picking up where yesterday left its mark

Bailando nos trilhos, losing every line

Bridge

No name

No face

Just smoke

Just base

Concrete

Water

Floor

Drop

I lose myself before I hit the ground

This is how it feels to leave my skin behind

Chorus

Drifting through São Paulo in the dark

Picking up where yesterday left its mark

Bailando nos trilhos, losing every line
