The streetlights hum a sickly tune
Underneath a tired moon
It's way too late, or way too soon
In this forgotten afternoon of the night
Got that static in my veins
A thousand thoughts but no real brains
Ignoring all the warning signs and pains
Let's go break the rusty chains
We're the neon animals, out on the prowl
With a silent promise and a secret howl
The city is sleeping, hear our growl
On this midnight patrol
Yeah, a hurricane in our heads
Ignoring all the things they said
Better off alive than dead
On this path we're being led
Kicking cans and chasing ghosts
Of all the things we wanted most
We are the terrifying hosts
Of all the futures we have lost
We're the neon animals, out on the prowl
With a silent promise and a secret howl
The city is sleeping, hear our growl
On this midnight patrol
