[Verse 1]
I burn my time in a plastic chair
Smoke in the bowl, sky in my stare
Late-night episodes on the screen
Fighting demons that I never beat
Posters peeling off my wall
I used to think I'd have it all
Now the ash spills on my jeans
And every plan falls out of reach
[Pre-Chorus]
Say my name
I don't answer
Pull me under
Make it louder
Hands shake hard
Still I hold on
One more hit
Then it's gone
[Chorus]
Ashes and neon, ashes and neon
I keep on running, I keep on falling
Ashes and neon, ashes and neon
Broken dreams keep calling
(keep on calling)
[Verse 2]
Manga pages on the floor
Split-screen heroes I still adore
They bleed, they rise, they break, they rage
I know that feeling page by page
My friends all left with a working life
I stayed behind with a rusted knife
Cutting doubt from my own chest
Trying to breathe, trying to rest
[Pre-Chorus]
Say my name
I don't answer
Pull me under
Make it louder
Hands shake hard
Still I hold on
One more hit
Then it's gone
[Chorus]
Ashes and neon, ashes and neon
I keep on running, I keep on falling
Ashes and neon, ashes and neon
Broken dreams keep calling
(keep on calling)
[Bridge]
If I wake up
Will I still be
The kid who screamed
He'd never leave?
Skin on fire
Heart in chains
I drag my shadow
Through the rain
[Breakdown]
Bite down
Spit out the lie
Bleed out
But don't die
[Final Chorus]
Ashes and neon, ashes and neon
I keep on running, I keep on falling
Ashes and neon, ashes and neon
Broken dreams keep calling
(keep on calling)
Ashes and neon, ashes and neon
I burn it down, then I start it over
Ashes and neon, ashes and neon
Broken dreams keep calling
(keep on calling)
