a young woman's experience in a big city.
Seas of pavement, waves of tourists.

I'm an alien, yet I feel as if I'm home.

Different colors, shapes, sizes.

How can you belong in a place like this?

Everyone's an alien in Neon City.



It makes sense, doesn't it?



The buildings are tall, glimmering in the sunlight.

Wait 'til you see it at night, baby.

Watch out for that car,

He ain't watchin' out for you.

It's every man for himself.



A little tough love never hurt anyone.



The city comes alive as the daylight dies.

What a bunch of vampires.

I could get lost, but I don't think I'd mind.

I can roam on forever.

I could fly right now.



Is this what you've dreamed of?



Upon the building top, I stare down.

Human stardust.

Can they see me? Cause' I can see you.

Everyone looks gorgeous in this light.

Let's take our time and dream.



Stars among the strange, are we.



Sirens blare, yet we feel at ease.

Ever wonder whats happening?

Someone's light could be flickering.

We start as stars and we'll end as stars.

Among the aliens of Neon city.
