Neon Carousel

Swipe left on the daylight

You walk in

The room tilts

Silver jacket

Crooked halo

Spilling glitter

Little guilt

You laugh like you’re off-key

Spinning in that borrowed dress

Our drinks on the speaker

Both hearts in a little mess

You say “stay ’til the sun comes up?”

I say “only if we’re still this drunk”

Your hand finds mine in the crush

Everything slows in the rush

Run it back on this neon carousel

Round and round

But it feels brand new

Every spin got me falling

Falling

Right back into you

Neon carousel

We don’t wanna get well

Sick of thinking

We just slide on through

Every spin got me falling

Falling

Right back into you

Your phone dying in your pocket

So the outside can’t get in

We’re a rumor in the strobes now

Half truth

Half oxygen

Shouting secrets in the bathroom

Over water

Over laughs

You say “promise you’ll remember”

I say “let’s just make it last”

You say “stay ’til the sun comes up?”

I say “only if we miss our bus”

Your hand finds mine in the crush

Everything slows in the rush
