Neon ghost

Verse 1

City lights flicker in my chest

Static where your heartbeat left

Midnight crawling up my spine

Your goodbye still on rewind

Lipstick stains on coffee cups

Every word you never meant

I taste the smoke of what we were

Sweet and sick and permanent

Pre-Chorus

You said love was a loaded gun

Guess I was the one who ran

Chorus

I’m dancing with your neon ghost

In the dark where we burned the most

Electric touch that never shows

I’m holding onto letting go

Your shadow wrapped around my throat

Whispers things I used to know

I’m moving on but moving slow

Still haunted by your neon ghost

Verse 2

Bathroom mirror, tired eyes

Mascara like battle lines

Every crack inside my voice

Still echoes from your choice

You built me up on fragile ground

Kissed me hard then shut me out

Now every crowded room feels cold

Too many faces, none feel close

Pre-Chorus

I tried to bury what we had

But love keeps digging back

Chorus

I’m dancing with your neon ghost

In the dark where we burned the most

Electric touch that never shows

I’m holding onto letting go

Your shadow wrapped around my throat

Whispers things I used to know

I’m moving on but moving slow

Still haunted by your neon ghost

Bridge (Soft → Explosive)

If I could rip your name from my veins

Would the silence feel the same?

If I could shut off every spark

Would I finally own the dark?

(Beat drops)

But I’d rather feel the pain

Than feel nothing again

Final Chorus

I’m dancing with your neon ghost

Till the memory overloads

One last flicker, one last glow

Then I let the current go

Your shadow fading from my throat

No more words I never spoke

I’m stepping out into the dawn

Your neon ghost is finally gone

Outro

City lights fade into blue

And I’m still standing… without you.
