[Verse 1]  
City lights are burning through the night  
I chase reflections, but they fade from sight  
You were my chaos, you were my calm  
Now I’m just dancing with an empty song  

[Pre-Chorus]  
Shadows in my veins, they call your name  
Every heartbeat feels the same  

[Chorus]  
Neon memories, they flicker in my head  
A love electric, but the wires are dead  
We’re just ghosts in a midnight frame  
I’ll never forget, but it’s not the same  

[Verse 2]  
Every street reminds me of your touch  
This urban jungle doesn’t care too much  
I scream in silence, lost in the crowd  
Your voice is static, but it’s way too loud  

[Chorus]  
Neon memories, they flicker in my head  
A love electric, but the wires are dead  
We’re just ghosts in a midnight frame  
I’ll never forget, but it’s not the same  

[Bridge]  
If I could rewind, I’d stay in your glow  
But neon burns out, and I’ll never know  
Why we turned cold in the heat of the fire  
Neon memories fade into the wire  


Neon Memories

City Lights

Somewhere In Between 🌫️✨

Beneath the heavy skies of Simmering, where gas towers breathe silence and neon lights tremble on wet concrete, time slows down and everything feels suspended. Airplanes rise into the endless gray, carrying dreams toward distant horizons — yet here, between the highways and the rails, the city fades into soft motion and your heart drifts out of frame.

This track captures that strange twilight zone between staying and leaving, between reality and memory. It’s about wandering through empty streets by Sankt Marx, hearing distant echoes from the Gasometer, feeling the cold wind from the Simmeringer Heide… and standing in that fragile space where Vienna ends but the world hasn’t begun yet.

Smooth synths, layered reverbs, and soft vocals float like night air over wet asphalt — melancholic, nostalgic, and weightless.
A song for late-night train rides, rainy terminals, and thoughts that never quite find their landing.

🎧 Put on your headphones. Close your eyes.
This is Somewhere In Between.

Lyrics:

Der Himmel über Simmering,
bleigrau, fast schwerelos,
Gasometer wie Schattenriesen,
der Wind trägt Staub von der Heide.
Zwischen Erdberg und Sankt Marx
verblassen die Nächte,
die Stadt schläft flach,
und alles fühlt sich langsam an.

Flugzeuge steigen irgendwo,
Lichter blinken durch den Dunst,
doch ich bleibe stehen —
am Rand der Welt.

Irgendwo dazwischen,
zwischen Startbahn und Stephansplatz,
zwischen Aufbruch und Zurück,
treibt mein Herz im Zwischenraum.
Irgendwo dazwischen,
verlier’ ich mich im Wind,
so nah am Tor der Welt,
und doch so weit von allem.

Arena flackert leise,
Zentralfriedhof im Dunst,
Straßenbahnen streifen müde
durch den Asphalt der Nacht.
Schwechat ruft von fern,
der Himmel riecht nach Regen,
und ich weiß, ich könnte fliegen —
doch bleib hier, noch einen Tag.

Leise Stimmen, ferne Lichter,
Wellen aus der Ferne wehen,
zwischen Wollen und Vergessen
atmet diese Stadt so schwer.

Irgendwo dazwischen,
zwischen Startbahn und Stephansplatz,
zwischen Aufbruch und Zurück,
treibt mein Herz im Zwischenraum.
Irgendwo dazwischen,
verlier’ ich mich im Wind,
so nah am Tor der Welt,
und doch so weit von allem.

Irgendwo…
dazwischen…
immer dazwischen.

Irgendwo dazwischen

Somewhere between a melted ice cream on a Split boardwalk and a late-night neon boat party in Dubrovnik, this track happened.
It’s not a song. It’s a 3-minute Adriatic daydream — salt on your skin, warm wind in your hair, and just enough questionable life choices to make it feel like summer forever.

You’ll hear:
🌊 Golden tides kissing velvet nights
💫 Neon waves that breathe when you don’t
💃 Hearts colliding somewhere between “don’t” and “do it”
🚤 And yes, just the right amount of Croatian chaos

Put on your sunglasses, turn the volume up, and let the skyline vibrations do the rest.
Warning: may cause sudden urges to book a one-way ticket to Zadar.

Lyrics:

Golden tides, Adriatic dreams,
Neon waves where the night still breathes,
Drifting slow, salt upon my skin,
Every sound is pulling me in…

Hearts collide — a little temptation,
Lights ignite my fascination,
Lost in time, no hesitation,
Falling deep in Croatian creations…

Croatian creations,
Skyline vibrations,
Hearts in rotation,
Sweet fascination…

Croatian creations,
Endless sensations,
Ocean temptation,
Pure elevation…

Velvet nights, city lights below,
Quiet whispers where the soft winds blow,
Crashing beats under silver skies,
Every breath feels electrified.

Lost in the heat, we move like waves,
Chasing the sound that the ocean plays,
Every step’s a soft temptation…
Every touch — new creation…

Croatian creations,
Skyline vibrations,
Hearts in rotation,
Sweet fascination…
