Bilingual
The gridlock breathes below me, a slow electric vein
This glass is cool, your ghost is in the rain
A million answering machines inside the sodium glow
(And the silence is a frequency I'm starting to know)
The concrete knew your footsteps long before we met
It holds the echo now, a cold and final debt
So turn the voltage up inside this hollow chest
Drown the memory out in frequencies and static stress
This skyline stole the words right from my tongue
You built me of neon bones
And left me here alone
In the echo of your crowded streets
You built me of neon bones
A signal and a tone
That the traffic just repeats
(Alone, alone)
My reflection in the window of a closing downtown train
A blur of passing streetlights, circuitry and pain
You gave me algorithms for the shape of a kiss
(Now the data just confirms everything I miss)
These skyscrapers are temples to a borrowed light
I'm a temporary tenant in the permanent night
So flood the circuit, break the connection at the source
This city's love was just a rerouted, brutal force
It drafted all the blueprints for our great undoing
You built me of neon bones
And left me here alone
In the echo of your crowded streets
You built me of neon bones
A signal and a tone
That the traffic just repeats
(Just repeats)
So is this what you wanted? Just another light to fade?
Another broken pattern in the display that you made?
You composed the chaos where our timing slipped
(Your streets held the secret of the final eclipse)
You're not a place, you're a pulse a cold electric prayer
And I'm the one left vibrating in the empty air
You built me of neon bones
And left me here alone
In the echo of your crowded streets
You built me of neon bones
A signal and a tone
That the traffic just repeats
(Just repeats)
