Hold me closely
Its rainy outside
The storm is getting closer
Under the flesh of a neon light
I know is dark
Under the fake moon
And the smiling stars
A scary face in the distance
Pretends to draw on paper,
What your smile feels like
And when your laugh stops.
These shadows I see,
i think they might be laughing at me;
I hear them around the corner
But I pretend they don’t exist.
Walking away in the night
Brushed by the neon light,
I know now if Id listen
Id understand much more about life
Please forgive my forgiveness
It came from a place of weakness,
Burn in the coals of hell
I need to feel your ashes fly away.
Walking on the road
Down where the river flows,
The neon light that shimmers
And lets my whispers by told.

Hold me closely
Its rainy outside
The storm is getting closer
Under the flesh of a neon light
I know is dark
Under the fake moon
And the smiling stars
A scary face in the distance
Pretends to draw on paper,
What your smile feels like
And when your laugh stops.
These shadows I see,
i think they might be laughing at me;
I hear them around the corner
But I pretend they don’t exist.
Walking away in the night
Brushed by the neon light,
I know now if Id listen
Id understand much more about life
Please forgive my forgiveness
It came from a place of weakness,
Burn in the coals of hell
I need to feel your ashes fly away.
Walking on the road
Down where the river flows,
The neon light that shimmers
And lets my whispers by told.
