FYODOROFF Neon River: Where the Lights Drown

The last train left an hour ago
I'm counting cracks upon the floor
The neon bleeds through broken blinds
Writes your name upon the door
I traced the wires through the wall
Followed the current to the source
Found a city built on sighs
And a love that ran its course

And the static in my head
Sings the words we left unsaid
Every streetlight pulls me in
To the place where we've both been

Down in the neon river
Where the lost souls swim
Every color tells a lie
About the state we're in
I can't find the surface
I can't find the ground
Just the sound of a thousand hearts
Beating without sound

You said this town was just a dream
A beautiful mistake
Now I'm awake and all I see
Is the rippling light on a shattered lake
The nightclubs spit out empty kids
With mascara running down
They're all searching for a kiss
In the lost and found

And the DJ plays our song
But the words are all wrong
Every beat just drags me down
To the lost and found of this town

Down in the neon river
Where the lost souls swim
Every color tells a lie
About the state we're in
I can't find the surface
I can't find the ground
Just the sound of a thousand hearts
Beating without sound

I saw your reflection in a puddle of oil
Rainbow colours, poisoned soil
I reached down to pull you out
But you were never there, no doubt

It's just light

Down in the neon river
Where the lost souls swim
Every color tells a lie
About the state we're in
I can't find the surface
I can't find the ground
Just the sound of a thousand hearts
Beating without sound

Down in the neon river
Where the lost souls swim
Every color tells a lie
About the state we're in
I can't find the surface
I can't find the ground
Just the sound of a thousand hearts
Beating without sound

A thousand hearts
Beating
Without
Sound
