Static Neon

[Intro]
[Verse]
Salt air hits the glass
Watch the seasons pass
Locked the heavy door
Shadows on the floor
Dusk is bleeding gold
Stories left untold
I am stepping through the dust
Breaking through the rust
[Pre-Chorus]
Can you hear the hum?
Where we used to run
Silent wires start to glow
In a place we used to know
Everything is still
Against my own will
[Chorus]
Oh, the imaginary neon light
Burning through the dead of night
I see you dancing there
With glitter in your hair
Ghost of who I used to be
Still looking back at me
In the static of the screen
The brightest thing I’ve seen
[Post-Chorus]
Static neon in my head
Words that we never said
Static neon, glow again
Like a long-lost friend
[Break]
[Verse]
Cracked screens show the stars
Hidden under scars
I hear a younger laugh
On a lonely path
Digital echoes fade
In the light we made
808s beat in my chest
Putting ghosts to rest
[Pre-Chorus]
Shadows on the wall
Waiting for the call
Glassy leads begin to play
Wash the gray away
Everything is still
Against my own will
[Chorus]
Oh, the imaginary neon light
Burning through the dead of night
I see you dancing there
With glitter in your hair
Ghost of who I used to be
Still looking back at me
In the static of the screen
The brightest thing I’ve seen
[Bridge]
It’s a bittersweet design
Frozen out of time
Rubbery bass and synth pads
The only world we had
I am reaching for the heat
To make the pulse complete
I can feel the warmth
Moving back and forth
[Verse]
You say
“Don’t let the colors fade”
Inside this arcade we made
Circuit boards breathe in the dark
Waiting for a single spark
I bargain with the setting sun
For everything we haven't done
But the rhythm keeps me here
Drowning out every single fear
[Chorus]
Oh, the imaginary neon light
Burning through the dead of night
I see you dancing there
With glitter in your hair
Ghost of who I used to be
Still looking back at me
In the static of the screen
The brightest thing I’ve seen
[Post-Chorus]
Static neon in my head
Words that we never said
Static neon, glow again
Like a long-lost friend
[Outro]
