[Intro - Fast pulsing bassline, sweeping synth pads, heavy drum fill]
(Vocal, slightly filtered)
Transmission started...
[Verse 1]
I stopped counting hours, I just watch the mileage spin,
Another ghost town where the night begins.
Static on the screen, says the destination’s locked,
But the coordinates we used are kinda old and mocked.
My fuel gauge is flashing red on E,
But I keep pushing through the gravity.
Got a picture on the visor, faded at the edges,
A promise we wrote down across the rusted hedges.
[Pre-Chorus]
The city lights are just a shimmer in the rear,
Everything I lost seems to disappear.
But the rhythm of the highway keeps the signal strong,
Telling me I’ve known this feeling all along.
[Chorus - Melody shifts to a brighter key, powerful gated reverb on the drums]
Gotta keep my eyes on the Digital Horizon,
Chasing down the memory of where the sun was rising.
It’s a long, straight road, baby, built on broken dreams,
Caught between the reality and the laser beams.
Lost in the data stream, but I won’t look away,
Gonna find the version of ourselves from yesterday.
[Verse 2]
The asphalt whispers secrets only I can hear,
About the decade when the future was so clear.
My car’s an analog machine in a digital domain,
Trying to outrun the synthesized rain.
I check the clock; it’s always just past three,
The perfect time for just the phantom version of me.
Just shadows and the hum of the engine’s drone,
Driving to a place I only briefly owned.
[Pre-Chorus]
The city lights are just a shimmer in the rear,
Everything I lost seems to disappear.
But the rhythm of the highway keeps the signal strong,
Telling me I’ve known this feeling all along.
[Chorus - Repeat. Synth melody is slightly busier now]
Gotta keep my eyes on the Digital Horizon,
Chasing down the memory of where the sun was rising.
It’s a long, straight road, baby, built on broken dreams,
Caught between the reality and the laser beams.
Lost in the data stream, but I won’t look away,
Gonna find the version of ourselves from yesterday.
[Bridge - Drums drop out. Ethereal, shimmering pads hold the tension. Vocal becomes vulnerable]
I know the signal’s weak... maybe it’s not there at all.
Just a looping sequence, waiting for a call.
But I will drive until the tape runs out on the deck,
And find that future that we couldn't quite protect...
[Guitar Solo Section / Break Down - Main synth lead takes over for a driving, melodic solo before the final chorus]
[Chorus - Final energetic repetition, using heavy delays on the vocal]
Gotta keep my eyes on the Digital Horizon,
Chasing down the memory of where the sun was rising.
It’s a long, straight road, baby, built on broken dreams,
Caught between the reality and the laser beams.
Lost in the data stream, but I won’t look away,
Gonna find the version of ourselves from yesterday.
[Outro - Bassline pulses faster, then cuts abruptly with a single, long synth chord decaying slowly]
(Vocal, barely a whisper)
...Transmission lost.
