• Neon Is My Night - Light


    Can the North Star guide the way,
    When eyes can no longer see it?
    Do constellations shine above it?
    My heart can't quite believe it.
    If the aurora borealis
    Lights up the northern skies,
    It's lost to me,
    On city streets,
    Neon is my night - light.

    Oozing up through sidewalk cracks
    Come people of the night.
    In black and red, the walking dead,
    With ghostly skin and eyes.
    Are they after peace or poison?
    Will their souls ignite?
    Freaks abound,
    Tightly wound,
    Neon is my night - light

    Blues and pinks and yellows glow,
    Cutting through the sky.
    Flicker, flutter, flash and flare,
    They eat the night alive.
    No one's here to tuck me in,
    To ease my tears away.
    I dread in the dark,
    Cold and stark,
    Neon is my night - light.
