Nocturne Highway
(synth wash, engine hum)
Mile markers blur to comets
Dashboard lit in violet haze
Every exit sign's a rumor
Of a life I used to chase
Speedometer counting stars
Headlights drawing maps in the dark
We are the ellipsis
Trailing off past the city line
Never finished, never final
Just a pulse of taillight shine
Keep the engine running blind
Radio catches ghosts of stations
Static hums a half-remembered tune
Every
overpass a punctuation
On a sentence
aimed at the moon
Speedometer counting stars
Headlights drawing maps in the dark
We are the ellipsis
Trailing off past the city line
Never finished, never final
Just a pulse of taillight shine
Keep the engine running blind
(instrumental breakdown, arpeggiated synth solo)
We are the ellipsis
Trailing off past the city line
Never finished, never final
Just a pulse of taillight shine
Keep the engine running blind
(engine fades into synth wash)
