"Neon Grave" malt die Stadt als schönen Friedhof einsamer Seelen. Eine Million Lichter, keines für dich. Jedes Fenster ein Leben. Das Neonglühen verspricht Verbindung, liefert aber nur flackernde Anonymität—so viele Menschen, so viele innerlich tot, die sich alle unter der elektrischen Nacht in den Schlaf singen. Schön, kalt und tief einsam.
The city glows in pink and blue
A million lights, and none for you
Neon signs that never sleep
Promising a truth they'll never keep
Every window is a life
Every life a silent knife
Behind the glass, a lonely soul
Pretending they are whole
Neon grave, pretty and bright
Buried in the electric night
So many lights, so many dead
Living in a glowing bed
Neon grave, cold and deep
The city sings us all to sleep
Trains that run and never stop
People passing, shop to shop
Nobody looks, nobody stays
Just flickering in the neon haze
We are beautiful and we are lost
Paying for the light the loneliness cost
Under all the color
Under all the sound
A quiet graveyard
Of the lonely and the drowned
Neon grave, pretty and bright...
Buried in the electric night...
Neon grave...
Neon grave...
Glow... and fade...
Glow... and fade...
