Neon Rome

(album: Flight Risk - 2022)

Traded in the static for the darkness and the cold
And the generator's dying now and I've been put on hold
Just a running on a program that's severely insincere
Got a murder hornet cornered where do we go from here
I said from here
Here

Just a running on a program that's severely insincere
When we traded in the static where do we go from here
I said from here
Here

Traded in the static for the darkness and the cold
And a generation's dying now and I've been put on hold

Tearing through those city lights
It just gets faster by degrees
Calibrating the cost
It's all just so meaningless to me
Moving through those city lights
It just gets faster by degrees
Calibrating the cost
It's all just so meaningless to me

A neon rome is playing just inside my frontal lobe
Time and space and motor skills have kept the volume low
Naked and erratic pretty soon we won't exist
But the drop down menu offers nothing nice to go with it
I said from here
From here

We traded in the static for the darkness and the cold
And a generation's dying now and I've been put on hold

It ain't getting any better with the neurotoxin glow
Doctor Friedman tells me sweetly that there's nowhere else to go
It's a perfect pixelation that has left no stone unturned
It's a careful recreation and we should let it burn

Tearing through those city lights
It just gets faster by degrees
Calibrating the cost
It's all just so meaningless to me
Moving through those city lights
It just gets faster by degrees
Calibrating the cost
It's all just so meaningless to me

Bow down
I just won't bow down
I just can't bow down
And there ain't no way around it
Bow down
I just won't bow down
I just can't bow down
And there ain't no way around it

Tearing through those city lights
It just gets faster by degrees
Calibrating the cost
It's all just so meaningless to me
Moving through those city lights
It just gets faster by degrees
Calibrating the cost
It's all just so meaningless to me

Bow down
I just won't bow down
I just can't bow down
And there ain't no way around it
Bow down
I just won't bow down
I just can't bow down
And there ain't no way around it
