Lyrics

ame no ato no neon
nureta michi ga nido hikaru
Neon after rain. (ame no ato no neon)
Everything twice. (nureta michi ga nido hikaru)
The one above and the one underneath —
the one underneath is always the better version.
Nothing here got prettier.
It stopped pretending for an hour.
Everything doubles when the road is wet.
The signs go down into the pavement and burn there upside down,
and a street that is honestly nothing much in daylight
turns into something you would fly a long way to see.
Water improves nothing about this place.
It shows the city a version of itself it refuses to believe.
There is a kind of beauty that only shows up in the wrong conditions —
too late, too cold, too wet, and nobody about to notice it,
indifferent to how inconvenient the timing is,
and it will not be back on request.
The good hours never announce themselves in advance.
They just happen to whoever is out.
Gold in the gutter. (nureta michi ga nido hikaru)
Every colour this place owns
face down in the road for anybody still out.
Nobody sells you this version.
The advertised one is the daylight one, and it's a lie.
Stay out. (stay out)
Walk the long way. Get cold. Get soaked.
Every good thing I have ever seen
turned up in conditions nobody would have chosen.
