Echoes in Red

Neon lights hum in the midnight air
Her shadow lingers on the platform stairs
Red dress sways with the tired breeze
High heels echo through the concrete seas

The rival chime a muted call
She stands alone as the night grows tall

Late night subway right unbound and free
A fleeting moment for her and me
Through the silence of the city's veins
She drifts away on silver trains

Billboards flicker with a hollow glow
Her eyes reflect what she won't show
Between the strangers, her heart conceals
A fragile story the night won't reveal

The rival chime a muted call
She stands alone as the night grows tall

Late night subway right unbound and free
A fleeting moment for her and me
Through the silence of the city's veins
She drifts away on silver trains

Late night subway right unbound and free
A fleeting moment for her and me
Through the silence of the city's veins
She drifts away on silver trains

The headlights fade, a closing scene
Leaving only whispers of what might have been

Late night subway ride
Ride
