Love draws the horizon – Lateral Paradigm

It’s sort of a love song, about how love can bring you back to life. The lyrics just came to me.

Walking streets in faded jeans
Only neon lights the scene
Empty faces pass me by
Dreams that flicker, then they die

Shadowed corners, hollow halls
Fingers tracing broken walls
Breathing smoke with every step
Losing more than I had left

Now I got a reason
Headlights burning through the night
Love draws the horizon
Shows me where my hopes ignite

Counting hours in the rain
Chasing silence, tasting pain
No direction, only time
Burning out on borrowed dimes

But you, you caught my vacant stare
Pulled me in, you made me care
Lit a fire behind my eyes
Now I see a place to rise

Now I got a reason
Headlights burning through the night
Love draws the horizon
Shows me where my hopes ignite

I was drifting through the cold
You gave my story back its spark
Steel resolve in open arms
Now I see the way, not dark

Now I got a reason
That no shadow can erase
My steps are sure, the path is clear,
My rightful place, is finally here.

Now I got a reason
Headlights burning through the night
Love draws the horizon
Shows me where my hopes ignite
