Neon Velocity

Verse

Crosswalk flashing, city breathing neon rain,

You bump my shoulder, static in my vein,

Vending machine hums a blue electric hum,

Your laugh hits harder than the bass drum,

Train doors closing but I let it leave,

Six syllables and I can't believe.

Pre-Chorus

Heart's on a wire, sparking down the street,

Am I falling or just losing my feet?

Colors bleeding, sirens turn to song,

Tell me if this rush is right or wrong.

Chorus

I'm running at neon velocity,

Your name's the only gravity,

Skidding through the lights, out of my body,

Neon velocity, crashing into you and me.

Sirens turn to symphony,

I'm running at neon velocity.

Verse

Rooftop signs are spelling out your face,

Elevator drops but I don't brace,

Phone lights up, my thumbs won't stay still,

Every text a shot of chrome and thrill,

Midnight bus is speeding through the haze,

I'm burning through a hundred yesterdays.

Pre-Chorus

Heart's on a wire, sparking down the street,

Am I falling or just losing my feet?

Colors bleeding, sirens turn to song,

Tell me if this rush is right or wrong.

Chorus

I'm running at neon velocity,

Your name's the only gravity,

Skidding through the lights, out of my body,

Neon velocity, crashing into you and me.

Sirens turn to symphony,

I'm running at neon velocity.

Bridge

Slow it down, just for a second,

Let me feel this heartbeat echoed,

Maybe falling isn't falling,

Maybe it's just flying, sideways, glowing.

Hold my hand through the flicker and the blur,

This is the only speed I've ever wanted to occur.

Chorus

I'm running at neon velocity,

Your name's the only gravity,

Skidding through the lights, out of my body,

Neon velocity, crashing into you and me.

Sirens turn to symphony,

I'm running at neon velocity,

Neon velocity, straight into you and me.
