Riot in the Streets

Lyrics

[ [INTRO] Cold light flickers in the alley, neon hums a lonely note, Shadows whisper on the pavement, a silence that I wrote. The rain drips like confession on the cracked concrete, I’m chasing echoes of a dream that’s incomplete. [VERSE 1] The rust of your promises stains the steel of my mind, A cracked reflection staring back at what I left behind. Every word you left unsaid is a jagged, aching blade, I walk the broken path alone, where the memories fade. [PRE‑CHORUS] The city lights flicker like distant memories, I’m chasing echoes of us in the midnight air. The sirens sing a lullaby for the broken, But my heart keeps beating for the love we’ve spoken. [CHORUS] And I'm bleeding on a blackened floor, Grunge in my veins, heart’s broken roar. I keep chasing ghosts in the neon haze, A shattered dream that’s lost its blaze. The alley’s walls are soaked with our last goodbye, I scream into the void, but the echoes just lie. [VERSE 2] Your laughter once danced in puddles, now it’s just a ghost in the mist, I trace the rhythm of your absence, each step a silent twist. The flicker of streetlamps paints a portrait of what we were, But time erodes the edges, and I’m left with a blur. [PRE‑CHORUS] The night sky cracks open, revealing empty scars, I keep searching for the stars that once shone in your eyes. The wind carries your name in a mournful refrain, Yet I’m bound to this alley, shackled by the rain. [CHORUS] And I'm bleeding on a blackened floor, Grunge in my veins, heart’s broken roar. I keep chasing ghosts in the neon haze, A shattered dream that’s lost its blaze. The alley’s walls are soaked with our last goodbye, I scream into the void, but the echoes just lie.
