Lyrics
Blurry Neon Lights (2011)
Verse 1:
Ten drinks down and ten to go,
I see two of everything and I want to see two more,
Sounds… escaping from the radio,
And the blurry neon lights are flashing, moving so slow,
Losing my rhythm drink after drink,
Makes me sick… every time I make my eyes blink,
Stop. Hold on. Let me think, I think,
I haven’t finished yet I got a little extra in me,
Chuggin’ down the eighty proof,
Liquor on the shelf, I can take it all myself,
Take a step back, I don’t need no help,
Just carry me away when I’m laying on the ground,
A bumpy ride, headed down a hellbound path,
Who knew that near the end I was falling off the track?
I guess it’s better than a head on crash,
I always wondered if I could make it back,
Chorus:
Lost memories,
In empty bottles,
When I look up,
I see the blurry neon lights,
I hide myself,
In the ash tray,
I try to escape,
But I see blurry neon lights,
Verse 2:
Burnt-out, sitting, watching everything pass me by,
Stuck behind a window pane, the spins: will they reside?
A dream within a dream within a deadly taxi ride,
I smell burnt rubber as I’m kicked to the roadside,
Fill up the glass, I think I’ll pass,
Body’s feeling heavy, I’m running low on cash,
Dragged out the door, left laying on my ass,
Visions gone black, I’m ~~~~~~, wasted, and trashed,
Your voice…
Calls my name…
Or so I thought,
My brain’s playing games,
Heart attack forming with a burning in my chest,
Blood stopped flowing, got the numbing in the lips,
Take a seat, sit, impending unconsciousness,
Had enough of it, but hadn’t heard the last call yet,
Chorus (x2):
Lost memories,
In empty bottles,
When I look up,
I see the blurry neon lights,
I hide myself,
In the ash tray,
I try to escape,
But I see blurry neon lights,
Interlude:
This one’s for you,
To show you that I might make it through,
I’ll trip, I’ll fall, on my face,
Done being an emotional basketcase,
End:
Adrenaline is pumping,
I’m ready to ~~~~ up something,
Surviving the crash,
I’m stepping through the glass,
There’s no turning back,
From this lethal heart attack,
A love and hate relationship,
Hungover, left feeling like ~~~~!
