Title: Neptune & The Neon Lights
Style: Soulful NY Trap-Country
Vibe: Deep piano chords, heavy 808s, and a touch of outlaw grit.
[Intro]
(The sound of a bar door swinging open—muffled chatter and the 'ding' of a slot machine. Gabby starts a slow, bluesy piano riff.)
"Set 'em up, Gab.
Same bar, same scars, same three songs.
But tonight... we’re taking the Enterprise to the moon."
[Verse 1]
She’s got a soul made of fire and a heart full of pain,
Sitting at the keys while she plays through the rain.
She’s beautiful and crazy, shining brighter than gold,
With a story in her eyes that’s never been told.
She’s a hot-mess goddess, yeah, she’s just like me,
Two addicts searching for a way to be free.
If we only knew then what we finally know now,
We’d have found a way out of this city somehow.
[Verse 2]
(The beat drops—hard, slow, and heavy)
We’re sick of this town and the weight of the air,
The same tired faces and the same empty stare.
Holding onto the mic like a lifeline tonight,
Trying to sing our way back into the light.
‘Before He Cheats,’ yeah, we’re screaming the lines,
While the ‘Picture’ on the wall shows the weight of the times.
Then it’s ‘Strawberry Wine,’ bittersweet and slow,
Three songs in a loop with nowhere to go.
But you’re hula-hooping Saturn, you’re celestial bound,
Far above the static of this "nothing" town.
[Chorus]
So wait for your day, wait for the tide,
To take that glittering wave for an infinite ride.
Tucked behind the moon, past the horizon’s edge,
Leaving all the broken vows and the empty-ass pledge.
Off to Neptune and beyond, where the music is loud,
Blasting through the enterprise, head in the cloud.
You’re the beauty and the beast, the ice and the flame,
And this god-forsaken town won't remember your name.
[Verse 3]
(Cut-throat flow—ninja status)
We know the truth, Gab—what goes up must come down,
We’ve hit every rock on the bed of this town.
But you’re Egyptian gold, you’re the flames of the future,
Trying to heal the wounds without needing a suture.
I see the ice in your chest and the fire in your head,
The words of the living and the ghosts of the dead.
We both want better, we both want the light,
Two ninjas just trying to survive one more night.
[Bridge]
(Music fades to just the piano and the sound of rain)
"You're the savior and the executioner, Gab.
The summer breeze that’s gonna blow this town away.
They think they know us because they see us at the bar...
But they haven't seen the enterprise you built in the stars.
Next time we sing... it’s gonna be on the other side of the moon."
[Outro]
(A massive, spacey synth swell covers the piano)
Yeah.
Egyptian Gold.
Neptune bound.
One last drink for the road...
Then we're gone.
(The sound of a glass clinking against a piano key, followed by a rocket-engine roar that fades into the stars.)
