Lyrics
Intro
Neon drips from the ceiling,
heartbeat skipping in the dark...
Verse 1
Neon lights turn my tears into glitter,
High heels tapping, lips curled ‘round a cigarette.
Your perfume lingers, tangled up with my lipstick—
I watch bruises fade in strobe-lit glass, but I can’t forget.
Heartbreak stings deep, so I chase it down with whiskey,
Let the burn in my throat drown out your name.
Strangers catch my rhythm, bodies moving with my shadow,
Your ghost in the smoke, slipping further away.
Poison in my veins—tonight it feels like freedom,
I’m alive in the dark, and the pain becomes my lifeline.
Pre-Chorus – melodic, slightly slurred, like on the verge of laughing and crying, with vocal layering and echoing ad-libs
I’m free-falling into a high I can’t control,
trading heartbreak for chemical comfort down in my soul.
No turning back now – the night calls my name,
I feel nothing – it’s the peace that I craved.(feel nothing)
Chorus
I’m raising my glass to a night I won’t recall,
I’m high enough now that I can’t feel the fall.
So high above heartbreak, it can’t touch me at all,
I’m losing myself, but it feels like flying.
Sweat and perfume, my alibi for the night
Ce soir je danse avec mes démons,
je bois à l’oubli de ton nom.
Verse 2
I baptize my broken heart in champagne and smoke,
I trade my tears for the taste of somebody new.
His whiskey-soaked kiss keeps the loneliness away,
bottles and bodies all blur into bliss.
accelerated, staccato, rhythmic rap section
Inhale the powder – rewrite my reality,
I’m high on oblivion, invincible tonight.
His name is just a blur, and I like it that way,
in this temple of bass, I pray to forget your face.
Pre-Chorus – repeat, this time with more vocal layers and harmonized ad-libs rising to a climax
I’m free-falling into a high I can’t control,
trading heartbreak for chemical comfort down in my soul.
No turning back now – the night calls my name,
I feel nothing – it’s the peace that I craved.
Chorus
II’m raising my glass to a night I won’t recall,
I’m high enough now that I can’t feel the fall.
So high above heartbreak, it can’t touch me at all,
I’m losing myself, but it feels like flying.
Sweat and perfume, my alibi for the night
Ce soir je danse avec mes démons,
je bois à l’oubli de ton nom.
Bridge
I kiss goodbye to my shadow in the neon haze,
for a moment, I’m infinite—
unraveled, untamed.
Outro
Numb heart, night neon – I’ve never felt so alive.
Never felt so alive…
(fading, fragments, reversed vocals trailing off…)
