Runes in Neon 10

Verse

Steel beams catch the city glow

Runes in neon, they won't go quiet yet

Chain-link fence where the fire used to be

Now we're running on a rhythm I can't read

Pipes beneath the parking lot throb

Concrete cracks where our shadows drop

I was lost before this street took hold

Now my footsteps answer to a story untold

Pre-Chorus

Something's rising under the blacktop skin

Tell me how long we can run before it pulls us in

Chorus

We're running through runes in neon, we don't stop until the lights give way

Every pulse beneath the street is calling out my name tonight, we ride or die in neon

Verse 2

Wires drip like rain from a wire above

Sparks off metal where our shadows move

Windows shatter like a thousand drums

I lose my name before I lose my thumb

Bassline digs under the curb, it knows

Every step is currency, every heartbeat owes

I was broke when this block found me low

Now I'm running richer than I used to know

Pre-Chorus

Something's rising under the blacktop skin

Tell me how long we can run before it pulls us in

Chorus

We're running through runes in neon, we don't stop until the lights give way

Every pulse beneath the street is calling out my name tonight, we ride or die in neon

Bridge

Maybe I was born for this kind of glow

Maybe running's just a language I already know

No names left on a map somewhere cold

Just asphalt breathing, warm and bold

Chorus

We're running through runes in neon, we don't stop until the lights give way

Every pulse beneath the street is calling out my name tonight, we ride or die in neon
