Permanent Sunset

[Intro]
[Verse]
Two seventeen on the dash
Raindrops turn to silver ash
Engine idling soft and low
Nowhere left for me to go
Coastal fog begins to creep
While the weary city sleeps
[Pre-Chorus]
The lighthouse sweeps the bay
Chasing all the dark away
I can hear the ocean sigh
Underneath a leaden sky
Street signs hum a lonely tune
Fading like a paper moon
[Chorus]
You said we’d find the light
Far beyond the edge of night
Where the sun will never set
On the things we might regret
Just a ghost in the machine
In a world of neon green
[Post-Chorus]
Searching for that golden glow
Where the digital rivers flow
Waiting for a sign from you
In the haze of electric blue
[Break]
[Verse]
Boardwalk games are silent now
Broken glass and salt-stained prow
You followed whispers in the wind
To the place where dreams begin
Left your helmet on the sand
Slipped right through my shaking hand
[Pre-Chorus]
I still feel the salty air
Wondering if you’re still there
Every wire starts to bleed
Everything I’ll ever need
Is locked behind a closing door
On this cold and lonely shore
[Chorus]
You said we’d find the light
Far beyond the edge of night
Where the sun will never set
On the things we might regret
Just a ghost in the machine
In a world of neon green
[Bridge]
The wires buzz inside my head
All the words we never said
Static on the radio
Telling me it’s time to go
But I’ll wait another hour
By the rusted signal tower
Maybe you are waiting too
Where the sky is always new
[Hook]
The neon horizon
New dreams are arising
Our fate is deciding
And still I am riding
[Chorus]
You said we’d find the light
Far beyond the edge of night
Where the sun will never set
On the things we might regret
Just a ghost in the machine
In a world of neon green
[Post-Chorus]
Searching for that golden glow
Where the digital rivers flow
Waiting for a sign from you
In the haze of electric blue
[Outro]
