LYRIC FOR SALE

By Stephen Russell

Two neon lights
Deciphered the pain through the sorrow
Two neon lights
Deciphered the pain through the night
An oversight
Condemned a poor soul to the gallows
An oversight
Condemned a poor soul to his plight

His final night
Heartbroken,bereft
His final night
Consumed by fear and regret
The morning light
Brought forth outrageous unrest
To his surprise
Two neon lights did interject

Those neon lights
Exposed an escape through a hollow
Those neon lights
Expired as he fled out of sight
A warm embrace
His lover he met on the morrow
A warm embrace
As freedom dictated their lives

They roamed the fields
Through wondrous delights
The passing years
Brought such joy to their lives
Celestial spheres
From sunset to sunrise
The stratosphere
Two neon lights did arrive

Those neon lights
Exposed a new world through a hollow
Those neon lights
Then faded away through the night
Two neon lights
They faded away out of sight
