Night Run Songtext

von XP8

Long trails of streetlights
Engraved onto my eyes
Plagued air invade my lungs
Visor down on this night run.

Light's traffic, two levels down
The seediest part of town
The sexiest motorbike
Going after those from whom we hide.

Shake the tension off your mind
No running even if we're out time
Try to melt into the crowd
The unrelenting wall of sound.
We're inside, we're patching in
Logging on this cruel machine
Looking for some hidden path
To the code we need to crack

This toxic air is part of me
The streets unfolding underneath
The circuit of my destiny
Printed in blood and bones in me
This dying city is part of me
It'll show no sign of my defeat
The circuit of my destiny
Printed in blood inside of me

The ceiling cracks they're onto us
Can only see their muzzles flash
Out on the street we try to hide
She got hit and you didn't see her die

This toxic air is part of me
The streets unfolding underneath
The circuit of my destiny
Printed in blood and bones in me
This dying city is part of me
It'll show no sign of my defeat
The circuit of my destiny
Printed in blood inside of me

Four in the morning the skyscraper sleeps
I am alone to taste my defeat
The room is dark where she waits for me
One single kiss won't erase my guilt

This toxic air is part of me
The streets unfolding underneath
The circuit of my destiny
Printed in blood and bones in me
This dying city is part of me
It'll show no sign of my defeat
The circuit of my destiny
Printed in blood inside of me
