[Intro]
Late night, neon lights,
The laughter starts to fade.
In the corner of my sight,
Regrets like debts are made.
[Verse 1]
I rolled in with a swagger,
Thought I owned the night,
But a shot too many,
And it turned into a fight.
See, I was feeling bold,
Trying to prove my might,
Now I’m standing here,
With a swollen eye so tight.
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, and the crowd just stares,
While I nurse my wounded pride.
A blur of flashing lights,
Hiding where I tried to hide.
[Chorus]
I need Neosporin for my eye,
Drowning in the shame, oh why?
Had a dream of dancing, living wild and free,
Instead, I’m nursing wounds from the man who fought me.
[Verse 2]
The bouncer’s grip was steady,
His eyes like cold steel,
I thought I had the upper hand,
But I’m the one who feels.
Slurred words and bravado,
Lost in my own game,
Now I’m stumbling to the car,
But I’ve only got myself to blame.
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, the laughter fades away,
As the memories collide.
A fool for one brief moment,
Now I can’t find my pride.
[Chorus]
I need Neosporin for my eye,
Drowning in the shame, oh why?
Had a dream of dancing, living wild and free,
Instead, I’m nursing wounds from the man who fought me.
[Bridge]
Tomorrow I’ll wake up,
With lessons to learn,
A scar on my heart,
From this crazy turn.
I’ll laugh at the mess,
And chalk it to fate,
But tonight I just wish,
The pain would dissipate.
[Outro]
So bring on the ice pack,
And maybe some tea,
‘Cause I’ll spin a new story,
Of who I want to be.
But for now I’m here,
With a bruise and a sigh,
Just me and my thoughts,
And some Neosporin for my eye.
