Tangled Threads

Shadows stretch long down the street tonight

Flickering neon signs whisper fight or flight

Tangled threads in the air twist and weave

Caught in a net of things I can't believe

Jumping sparks on the wire in the dark

Hearts racing like engines on a lark

Feel the swing as we fall from grace

Burning fast in this frantic chase

Streetlight halos paint the ground gold

Stories untold in the grit and the cold

Spinning wheels and a crackling flame

Chasing echoes of a forgotten name

Jumping sparks on the wire in the dark

Hearts racing like engines on a lark

Feel the swing as we fall from grace

Burning fast in this frantic chase

Break the chains hear the brass section blow

Stand-up bass thumps a rhythm down below

Electric strings cut sharp through the haze

Dancing wild in this frenzied blaze

Dust settles but the fire still burns

Through the chaos the wheel still turns

Tangled threads fray but never break

Riding high for the thrill we take
