Paroles
Verse 1
Neon bleeds on broken glass,
Sirens sing as shadows pass,
Steel and smoke, the city breathes,
Hunger hides beneath the streets.
Footsteps echo, hollow sound,
Something ancient stalks these grounds,
Eyes like knives in alley haze,
Watching through the urban maze.
Pre-Chorus
Feel the pulse beneath the stone,
This is not your world alone…
Chorus
In the midnight veins of Chicago,
Where the lost souls drift below,
Every whisper, every scream,
Feeds the dark American dream.
Blood runs cold where no one knows,
Truth is buried where it grows,
In the midnight veins of Chicago…
You’re never walking home.
Verse 2
Cracked reflections in the rain,
Faces shifting, none the same,
Velvet lies and silver teeth,
Kings of night with no relief.
Old gods hiding in the glare,
Tailored suits and empty stares,
Deals are made in crimson ink,
One more step and you will sink.
Pre-Chorus
Feel the hunger take its toll,
Something’s scratching at your soul…
Chorus
In the midnight veins of Chicago,
Where the cold wind starts to blow,
Every secret that you keep
Is a promise they will reap.
No salvation in these roads,
Just the weight of hidden codes,
In the midnight veins of Chicago…
You’re never walking home.
Bridge
Under Wacker, down below,
Where the blackest rivers flow,
Names are traded, lives erased,
Time itself has lost its place.
You can run but you won’t hide,
They can smell you from inside,
Heartbeat like a loaded gun—
In this city, no one’s young.
Breakdown
(Whispered)
“Don’t look back… don’t let them in…
They already know your skin…”
Final Chorus
In the midnight veins of Chicago,
Where eternity moves slow,
Every shadow wears a face,
Every sin leaves just a trace.
Blood and power overflow,
In a world you’ll never know,
In the midnight veins of Chicago…
You’re already their own.
Outro
Neon fades, the night remains,
You’re just one more drop in the veins…
