Shattered Drive
By Wes Martin
Electrified beats rise,
In the neon skies,
Echoes of a heart that cries,
In the dawn's disguise.
On this road, lights blur, sight unseen,
Heart's heavy in this machine.
Engine's roar, a hollow tune,
Underneath this fading moon.
Rising, racing, pulse is chasing,
Memories, my mind's erasing.
In the beat, world's alive, in the dive, I survive.
You're not here, it's a twisted game,
All's great, but I'm not the same.
Fast lane, mind's a race, lost in you, can't replace.
Street echoes, your face I see,
Heartbeat's lost, can't break free.
Dark raves, your missing spark,
I'm off the mark, lost in the dark.
Breakdown, falling apart,
Without your heart, lost my art.
In this beat, I'm on stage, reading off a torn-out page.
Masquerade, where I play, perfect world, but you're away.
Slow spin, memories flash,
Our dreams, now just ash.
Road ahead, missing your light,
Without you, nothing's right.
In the beat, I face the day,
Hoping this pain will fade away.
Silent plea, in this rhapsody,
In a perfect world, come back to me.
Beats slow, lights fade,
In the night, your shadow's laid.
Echoes of a love that's gone,
In the dawn, I'm moving on.
