Neon Sleep

Lyrics

Neon sleep
Eyes wide open
Neon sleep
Heaven broken

Scroll
Breathe
Smile
Repeat

Buy the dream
And stay asleep

Blue light blooms
On hollow faces
Soft machines
In holy places

Every window
Learns to glow
Like a fake star
Hung too low

The sky is loading
Frame by frame
The city forgets
Its real name

Somewhere outside
The signal cries
But no one lifts
Their borrowed eyes

We dream in neon
With our eyes wide open
We fall through heaven
Digitally broken

The real stars die
But the screens stay bright
We dream in neon
Through the end of night

Neon sleep
Neon sleep
Don’t wake up
Don’t look down

The sky is fake
But it keeps us warm
Plastic dawn
On silver towers

Feeds the streets
In endless hours
Algorithm angels
Count our breaths

Selling soft light
Over depth
Every heartbeat
Turns to code

Every prayer
A sponsored road
Children dance
In pixel rain

Learning joy
From a wired-up cage
The moon is rendered
Sharp and clean

But something bleeds
Behind the screen
A human voice
Tries to break through

Then turns to static
Before it’s true
We dream in neon
With our eyes wide open

We fall through heaven
Digitally broken
The real stars die
But the screens stay bright

We dream in neon
Through the end of night

Neon sleep
Neon sleep

There is a garden
Under the wires
Buried alive
By electric fires

There is a child
Inside the noise
Trying to speak
With a human voice

There is a door
Behind the glow
But every hand
Forgets to go

Wake the body
Leave the light
Break the halo
Split the night

We are not glass
We are not code
We are not dreams
They can upload

We dream in neon
With our eyes wide open
We fall through heaven
Digitally broken

The real stars die
But the screens stay bright
We dream in neon
Through the end of night

We sleep in color
While the black rains fall
We touch the surface
And call it all

Neon sleep
Neon sleep

Wake us now
Or let us go

Neon sleep
Eyes wide open
Neon sleep
Heaven broken
