Midnight Map

Lyrics: Selene Moray Music: Selene Moray Arranger: Selene Moray Raindrops race on taxi glass Neon ghosts in mercury swirls An unsigned postcard in my palm Tracing routes through this concrete world Engine hums a lullaby As we leave our last "goodbye" Third street lamp's fractured glow Showed your shadow with another silhouette Should've known when GPS went cold You rerouted all our destinations set Silent detours in your eyes Buried under traffic light lies Brake lights bleed across the lane Heartbeats sync with wiper blades This city breathes... I took a wrong turn, can't find my street Where memories don't ache beneath my feet Following echoes through unlit blocks Where love's coordinates turned to rocks This midnight map's a fading scroll Navigating this broken soul Did I ignore the one-way signs? Or did you pave the exit with goodbyes? Alleys whisper second guesses now While freedom hums from passing trains This wandering might just heal the vows That shattered like November panes Streetlights flicker their judgment down Tires hiss on rain-soaked ground Alone I breathe... I took a wrong turn, can't find my street Where home still lives in yesterday's heat Following echoes through unlit blocks Where promises drown in sidewalk cracks This midnight map's a bleeding scroll Lost in the maze of my control Lombard Street's coiled deception shines Like all the serpent roads you designed No U-turns where trust collapsed Just blue glow from lonely apps Rebuilding routes from satellite view My compass points to me and you... gone Unwritten addresses fade In rearview's silent masquerade This atlas of absence This midnight map... Just midnight map...
