Neon Facade

[Verse 1]
The filter's perfect, a sun-drenched, dazzling lie,
But rain streaks down my window, blurring the grey sky.
Empty storefronts echo, just me and the quiet hum,
While the feed scrolls by, where everyone's overcome.

[Chorus]
Oh, the neon facade, a brilliant, distant gleam,
My quiet Tuesday night, a half-forgotten dream.
Just this gentle ache, bittersweet and deep.

[Verse 2]
A Tokyo blur of high-res, vibrant faces,
Flashes past my timeline, in fleeting, public spaces.
My coffee cools, a page I didn't turn,
Just the city's quiet pulse, lessons I discern.

[Chorus]
Oh, the neon facade, a brilliant, distant gleam,
My quiet Tuesday night, a half-forgotten dream.
Just this gentle ache, bittersweet and deep.

[Bridge]
These towering constructs, built on curated light,
Can't hold the weight of what I feel tonight.
My own reflection, caught in fading light,
The hidden alley where my true colors glow.

[Chorus]
Oh, the neon facade, a brilliant, distant gleam,
My quiet Tuesday night, a half-forgotten dream.
Just this gentle ache, bittersweet and deep.

[Outro]
A silent grid, a truth I own,
Here in my space, finally known.
