Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] New town smell on a secondhand jacket Salt in the air Summer stuck to my skin Caught your eyes by the rusted ferris wheel You smiled like trouble I wanted to be in Neon rides Black boots on the railing You said my name like a dare in the dark Your laugh got lost in the surf and the screaming I followed you straight off the mark [Chorus] Blood on the boardwalk Smoke in my lungs Calling your name Teeth in the half-light Can’t tell the thrill from the shame I’m hanging by a strand of your silver hair One more step and I’m already there Blood on the boardwalk And I don’t know if I’m scared [Verse 2] My kid brother’s room stacked high with heroes Paper worlds where the good guys win He swears the pages are secret survival guides Says “They’re not a joke when the fangs sink in” (hey!) Two weird kids at the dusty shop counter Whisper “Trust us We’ve trained for this fight” Flashlights Stakes And a beat-up canteen Planning the end of the night [Chorus] Blood on the boardwalk Smoke in my lungs Calling your name Teeth in the half-light Can’t tell the thrill from the shame I’m hanging by a strand of your silver hair One more step and I’m already there Blood on the boardwalk And I don’t know if I’m scared [Bridge] David’s grin in the rearview mirror Eyes like a promise I might not break Wind in my face on a screaming night ride Every choice I make He helps me make Wine in a bottle that burns like daylight Laughter that rots into distant screams How do I kill what I almost wanted How do you wake from a dream like this dream (oh no) [Chorus] Blood on the boardwalk Smoke in my lungs Calling your name Teeth in the half-light Can’t tell the thrill from the shame I’m hanging by a strand of your silver hair One more step and I’m already there Blood on the boardwalk If they save me Will you stay? Blood on the boardwalk I walk away But I still crave

Dark 80s rock with male vocals; driving tom-heavy drums, chorus-drenched guitars, and a growling synth bass. Verses stay tense and moody, palm-muted and close; chorus explodes with wide gang vocals and soaring lead. Bridge strips to bass, reverb-soaked guitar swells, then slams back with doubled vocals and a snarling guitar hook., comic
