Black coat soaked in city breath
Fedora brim hides eyes that see too deep
Puddles mirror chrome and flame
While ghosts in flying cars whisper my name
Streetlights bleed through midnight haze
Each step I take dissolves in vapor trails
That spiral up to where the sky cracks wide
Revealing green-glow voids where dreams reside
Neon echoes in the rain
Call me back but not by name
Machines hum lullabies I can’t unlearn
While stars collapse in silent turns
I trace your face in window steam
Of cafes selling futures by the gram
The past is just a dial I twist
To static hymns from satellites gone dim
Neon echoes in the rain
Call me back but not by name
Machines hum lullabies I can’t unlearn
While stars collapse in silent turns
If time’s a loop we’re stuck inside
Then let the vortex pull me through
Not to tomorrow —just to you
Neon echoes in the rain
Call me back but not by name
Machines hum lullabies I can’t unlearn
While stars collapse in silent turns
