1994 was the year Rio Black and Dr. Mole, the creative center for Atomic Neon, first made music together. In the fall of 2006, after forming the synthpop project Spunk2003, Black and Mole searched for a live guitarist to help. The project was reinvented and songs were reconstructed into the band Atomic Neon.

Flash
Atomic Neon Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Comes to the world
Looking at you
It wants you now
A little flash
With a big boom
Knocks you down
A little flash
Comes to the world
Looking at you
It wants you now
A little flash
With a big boom
Knocks you down
A little flash
Comes to the world
Looking at me
It wants me now
A little flash
With a big boom
Knocks me down
Please leave me alone
Please leave me alone
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
HHHHHHHHHHHH
The lyrics of Atomic Neon's song "Flash" describe the sudden, powerful impact of a flash of light. The repetitive nature of the lyrics and the use of short, simple phrases mimic the sudden and intense nature of the flash itself. The first verse describes the initial appearance of the flash, as if it has just been born into the world and is immediately drawn to the listener. The chorus repeats the same phrases, emphasizing the intensity of the flash as it knocks the listener down. The final verse shifts perspective to the vocalist, who is also affected by the flash but pleads with it to leave them alone.
Overall, the lyrics of "Flash" focus on the overwhelming power of a sudden burst of energy or light. The repetition of the short lyrics creates a sense of urgency and tension, matching the intense subject matter.
