Fading Into Dark (Neon Ritual Overdrive)

Neon bleeding through the sand in my mind Heatwaves flicker into skyline lights I left the silence but it followed me here Still hear the wind in the wires Dust on my jacket, engine running low Endless horizon, nowhere left to go Burnt out sun hanging over my eyes Freedom tasted like a quiet goodbye Now it’s reflections in a chrome-lit street Ghosts in the glass where the shadows meet Same road different skin on the world Same lost, same girl I traded sand for electric skies But the silence never dies It just changes shape tonight I’m fading into dark, but the lights don’t lie They’re screaming through the night, getting brighter all the time From the desert to the city, I ride alone Same fire in my chest, different kind of unknown No rules in the dust, no peace in the glow Just me and the machine wherever I go Throttle whispers like a memory Every mile rewrites what’s left of me Billboards calling out a thousand names But none of them feel the same Concrete veins where the rivers died Neon rain on the sleepless side Still I chase that invisible line Between lost and alive City breath on my skin so cold But it burns like the sun I know In the static I hear it call I’m fading into dark, but the lights don’t lie They’re screaming through the night, getting brighter all the time From the desert to the city, I ride alone Same fire in my chest, different kind of unknown No rules in the dust, no peace in the glow Just me and the machine wherever I go Engines echo in an empty head Every road I took still led me here Sand or steel, it’s all the same Different cage, same flame Hear the sirens in the wind now Feel the current in my veins Every light a silent warning Every turn another name I’m fading into dark, but the lights don’t lie They’re tearing through my soul, getting brighter as I ride From the desert to the city, I let it take control Same fire in my chest, but it’s burning through it all No rules in the dust, no peace in the glow Just me and the machine with nowhere left to go Neon fades into a distant sun Road goes on though I’m undone Somewhere between the dark and light I disappear into the ride
