Neon City

nocturnal creatures prowling prepare for silent attacks in the dark last thing you hear is the howling when i sink my sharpened fangs in your heart some of us went with masters slowed down, taking the easy way out some of us kept running faster held ground, that's what life is about so i ride on the edge of the darkness white wolf in the endless night some call it brave, some call it heartless some say it's the left hand path, they’re right in the shadow of the starlight one final warning cry in the shadow of the starlight my soul is soaring high in this life you hunt or you're hunted and you will never make a catch out of me the only thing i've ever wanted is to roam the earth and be truly free

was it designed with future man in mind by some stranger who left it all behind? was it built on the ruins of rome? all i know is it’s the place i call home i’m gonna see you there tonight i’m gonna see you there every night i dream of neon city it’s gonna set my soul alive rockin’ hard, ridin’ free in neon city i’m gonna see you there tonight its rainy streets are all we’ll ever need a living being, this city never sleeps we’ll watch the sky as distant stars collide i’ll meet you in the city, on the other side those city lights i see them glowing they call for me, they call for you the day will come i seize the moment some dreams were meant to come true

once only fantasized now sent to scan the skies for protection of the world a small sacrifice but do they even have the keys to this sword of damocles? watching since you crawled on hands and knees strong is the gaze of the law looking at the crystal sky - beware the evil eye all around the midnight air - beware the evil stare now it says it’s seen the light repeals all civil rights declaring martial law of the evil eye only darkness in the streets we’re marching to its beat swallow hard the lie we once believed strong is the gaze of the law looking at the crystal sky - beware the evil eye all around the midnight air - beware the evil stare on a mission in the sky - we need the evil eye when i am gone you will be there - i greet the evil stare

i was struck by lightning that’s how i came to be my muscles tightening the power came to me there's electric tension i set the voltage high like a combustion engine running hard and burning up tonight turning up my systems currents flowing free you’re charged for resistance but listen, i'm on a power spree electric man here to make a stand here to cause a storm well you been warned electric man here to make demands with thunderbolts and lightning yeah you been warned i’m too hot for grounding but two is all i need my wired heart is pounding as i reach my peak when you can’t recharge me i seek another form brains upload in mach speed i’ll live on in the motherboard when you miss the friction use my circuitry like a bionic piston forever in your magnetic field

years of hiding in secret and now i’m finally caught my only crime this crime of thought don’t trust what you think the mind’s a powerful prison higher still i sink into the tower of wisdom will you give me the key to the gates of me i’m going into the light night skies illumination divine stay awake to awaken the mind white lights reflections reach the dark all the corners of my heart interrogations in an age of machines am i awake or in an endless dream? don’t trust in your thoughts not in a powerful mind higher still i fall into the tower of light will i ever be free from the prison that’s me i’m going deeper inside night skies wherever you are i’m shining with the stars this is the end of the dark i’ll take us far beyond

am i a man or machine a titanium piston for heart in any battle supreme tearing human tissue apart - we stand in line they put us right back on the street programmed for cyber patrol protect cities like pallas athene and still no sign of a soul - still mystified fighting, surviving under mind control when the dream is gone will i see the dawn in the night patrol am i the devil incarnate doing deeds at their command in infrared and the darkness unable to make a stand - reality bends in a state of illusion nerve impulses rendered useless i wait for the fusion when the madness blends with the lucid again all predetermined, all shall be known a lethal verdict cast in stone and now i understand that i was built to last the future’s out of my hands and what do i care of the past maybe all i need is the city streets if the world is out of reach so i fight hard in the night guard let ‘em have their sleep

never cared for the powers that be somewhere out on the streets the line’s crossed and out of reach i can’t find it don’t try to understand i’ll never be the kind of man to answer to a higher plan i hardline it how long has it been that i’ve been gone how long can it go on i’m never coming home from the danger zone god knows i tried but something tells me no i’m not turning back never coming home are you ready to face the heat? are you willing to bleed? you pay the price of a killing breed no compromises this path is a winding road it goes on, never coming home every man has to walk alone so hardline it how long has it been that i’ve been gone and still i must go on there ain’t no turning back i’m already home
