Verse
Corner store neon, bleeding on the tar
Amber on the pavement where the taxis are
Four a.m. shadows lean against the wall
Static from a window, low horns and all
Concrete still warm from the heat of the day
My feet know the rhythm, they won't lose the way
Dust on my sneakers, smoke in my chest
Every step a heartbeat, I forget the rest
Pre-Chorus
Can you feel the pull in the wire overhead
Humming out a signal, pulling me ahead
Something in the current, something in the glow
Tell me when to stop, but I don't wanna know
Chorus
Streetlights keep talking, keep talking to my feet
Move me down the boulevard, down the empty street
Streetlights keep talking till the dark turns thin
Gonna keep on moving till the lights come up again
Verse
Broken bottle glitter on the sidewalk crack
Shadow of a dog trailing at my back
Bassline from a window, three floors high
Catch it in my ribs like a second sky
Tin roof rattle where the wind cuts through
Empty bus stop bench, no one waiting too
But the current's got me, current's got a name
Same road, same groove, never quite the same
Pre-Chorus
Can you feel the pull in the wire overhead
Humming out a signal, pulling me ahead
Something in the current, something in the glow
Tell me when to stop, but I don't wanna know
Chorus
Streetlights keep talking, keep talking to my feet
Move me down the boulevard, down the empty street
Streetlights keep talking till the dark turns thin
Gonna keep on moving till the lights come up again
Bridge
Somewhere past the water tower, sky starts to bend
Orange bleeding into blue, but I don't wanna end
The lamps go quiet one by one, giving up their shine
But my feet don't know it's over — they still keep the time
Chorus
Streetlights keep talking, keep talking to my feet
Move me down the boulevard, down the empty street
Streetlights keep talking till the dark turns thin
Gonna keep on moving till the lights come up again
Outro
Lights come up
Feet still moving
Lights come up
I'm still moving
