Meet Me At The Stateline

[Intro]
[bluesy overdriven electric guitar solo with heavy vibrato]
[acoustic guitar strumming, bass, and drums enter]

[Verse 1]
[gritty male vocals]
Friday night in a rusted out town
Neon buzz like a humming sound
Every story eventually finds this place
Where your troubles get lost in the space
You don't ask questions, you don't keep score
You just walk through that swinging door
Leave the weight of the world behind
Step into the blur of the stateline
A little smoke, a little sin
Everybody here's trying to live again

[Chorus]
Meet me at the stateline
Where the light shines something divine
Where heartaches fade out of sight
In a midnight shimmer and a neon light
If you're looking for a place to disappear
Where the truth gets soft and the air runs clear
When you're tired of the life you've been
Meet me at the stateline

[Verse 2]
She's got boots that tell a story too
He's got a past he won't talk through
But in this crowd they all blend in
Like ghosts in the rhythm of a hymn
No one's judging what you left outside
No goodbyes, just a long slow slide
Into the music and the borderline
Where all souls go to feel fine again
No maps here, no real names
Just a fire in a restless flame

[Bridge]
[electric guitar solo continues]
It ain't redemption, it ain't a lie
It's just somewhere to pass you by
Between the wrong and the right
There's a thin blue strip of night

[Chorus]
Meet me at the stateline
Where the noise turns into sign
That maybe you don't have to choose
Between the good and the ones you lose
If you need a place to start again
Where the night don't know where you've been
When the world cuts a little too tight
Meet me at the stateline

[Outro]
[electric guitar solo with high-register bends]
Yeah, leave it all behind
Meet me at the stateline
