Velvet Horizons

The city's glow is fading in the glass
Watching all the neon shadows pass
We left the noise, we left the crowded street
To find the place where sky and pavement meet
The rearview mirror shows a world of fire
But ahead of us, a calm that won't ever tire

No more sirens, no more flashing lights
Just the cooling breath of a thousand nights
The air is different, the pressure is gone
We're the only ones awake to meet the dawn

The pulse slows down, the colors blend
We've reached the place where edges end
Beyond the lights, beyond the blue
The velvet horizon is waiting for you
Smooth like wine, deep as the sea
This is the peace we were meant to be

The tall glass towers are shrinking in the dark
Behind us lies the concrete and the spark
Here the silence has a weight of its own
A kingdom of starlight on a velvet throne
I'm breathing out the static and the grey
Driving toward a brand new kind of day

No more sirens, no more flashing lights
Just the cooling breath of a thousand nights
The air is different, the pressure is gone
We're the only ones awake to meet the dawn

The pulse slows down, the colors blend
We've reached the place where edges end
Beyond the lights, beyond the blue
The velvet horizon is waiting for you
Smooth like wine, deep as the sea
This is the peace we were meant to be

It's not an end, it's a transition
A change of heart, a new position
The velvet touch of the morning air
Finding the magic that was always there

The pulse slows down, the colors blend
We've reached the place where edges end
Beyond the lights, beyond the blue
The velvet horizon is waiting for you
Smooth like wine, deep as the sea
This is the peace we were meant to be

The velvet horizon
Waiting for you
Beyond the blue
(The night is over now)
