Verse 1:
Broken dreams on the boulevard
A melody that's a memory
Everywhere I turn, it's the same
Chorus:
The neon lights are faded
But the heart still beats
Trying to break through the surface
To a place that's serene
Verse 2:
We all fell for the thrill of it all
In the haze of the fast life we live
But now it's all fading into the distance
And we're left standing alone
Chorus:
The neon lights are faded
But the heart still beats
Trying to break through the surface
To a place that's serene
Bridge:
And we keep going, we keep moving
But it's only a matter of time
Before everything we ever dreamed of is shattered into pieces on the boulevard of broken dreams.
Chorus:
The neon lights are faded
But the heart still beats
Trying to break through the surface.
It's only when you lose your way
Will you finally find a new way
A new day has begun
But your broken dreams won't go away
But your broken dreams won't go away.
Out in the endless skyline
In this life you find
The time for growth and healing
A time for moving on.
The neon lights are faded
But the heart still beats
Trying to break through the surface.
And we'll rise up again.
(Outro) Just keep going. Never give up. Try again. (repeat)
