Lyric

Neon’s bleeding through the evening gray

Footsteps echo someone’s name

In a window, I saw your face

But no one’s ever asked, “Are you okay?”

Passing eyes, they never stay

Words can’t help us anyway

My voice drifts into the wind

Not alone, but it still feels this way

Under the red light beat

My heart keeps time with the street

No prayer, no promise to keep

Just shadows where memories sleep

I’m walking through the noise and the pain

Still breathing, again and again

Someone’s crying far away

A broken dream rolls down the lane

No time to stop, no time to mend

I turn another corner again

Where did I lose my way?

Maps can’t tell what hearts can’t say

All I believed in fades like smoke

But I’m still alive, still holding hope

There’s pain we never see

Flowing with the city’s beat

Between kindness and what’s right

I’m asking the quiet night

The traffic light blinks slow

Same rhythm as my soul

I know there’s more than rules to obey

Something real we can’t betray

I don’t need the strength to fight

I just want the courage tonight

To never hurt the ones I love

And light one small star above
