(This song is for a friend because I never had a chance to tell him) |
|
Neon, we were the neon sisters |
|
Standing in the cold rain |
|
Waiting for a home game |
|
Neon, the neon sisters |
|
Up and down the |
|
M195 and then some |
|
Midnight for the neon sisters |
|
And London was a bombsight |
|
Frozen in the moonlight |
|
And honey for the neon sisters |
|
Honey came in all shapes |
|
Pinafore and a snowflake |
|
And you borrow from dream-mongers |
|
And then you live to be 100 |
|
And you share the spoils you plunder |
|
Until the day you wake up hungering for neon |
|
Then where were the neon sisters? |
|
Reeling from a cowpunch |
|
Looking for a free lunch |
|
Anywhere the wind blows the club for heroes |
|
Blew me into |
|
HollywoodBlew you to skid row |
|
But I should have been there with you |
|
The night you died |
|
I think a part of me died with you |
|
But in my heart |
|
Where could |
|
I find it to forgive you? |
|
Until the night |
|
You went and stuck a dirty needle in your vein |
|
Of all the fires |
|
That ever thawed a cooling planet |
|
Yours burned bright |
|
With no chemical fan to it |
|
So tell me why |
|
If there's a good and there's an evil |
|
On one of those nights |
|
Did you stick a dirty needle in your vein? |
