Lyrics
Intro]
Distant fading engine sound
Heavy distorted guitar feedback layering
Slow, pulsating dark synth bass enters
Verse 1
Concrete ribbons under cold moonlight
Ghostly flickers of the neon light
I’m drifting through the static in the air
A hollow soul with nowhere to repair
The engine hums a low and steady drone
The furthest place I’ve ever called my home
Chorus
Explosion of sound - thick guitar walls
Lost in the blur, we’re fading out
The asphalt screams, I cannot shout
Through the mist, through the haze
In this endless driving daze
Darkness flows like heavy rain
Wash away the silver pain
Verse 2
The dashboard glows, a ghost within the glass
I watch the shadows of the future pass
Velocity is just a state of mind
Leaving every heartbeat far behind
Eyes wide open, staring at the white
Drowning in the velvet of the night
Chorus
Wall of sound intensifies
Lost in the blur, we’re fading out
The asphalt screams, I cannot shout
Through the mist, through the haze
In this endless driving daze
Darkness flows like heavy rain
Wash away the silver pain
Bridge
Drums drop out, only ethereal pads and feedback
Speed...
Silence...
The road is a mirror...
I am the wind...
Drums crash back in with heavy reverb
Guitar Solo
Distorted, soaring melody buried under layers of fuzz
Outro
Fading out...
Into the grey...
Into the night...
Sound of a car speeding past and disappearing into reverb tail
Fade to silence
