[Verse 1]
Under the red glow of a busted sign,
She spins on the pole like she’s chasing time.
Her heels click loud on the sticky wood floor,
A laugh like a razor, cutting to the core.
[Prechorus]
A crumpled twenty falls from a shaking hand,
She takes it, but her eyes are in no man’s land.
[Chorus]
Neon and needles, a dangerous dance,
She trades her tomorrows for one more chance.
Powder on the table, smoke in the air,
A fragile dream crumbles, but nobody cares.
[Verse 2]
Backstage mirrors cracked, lipstick smeared,
She wipes her reflection, the truth’s too near.
Tracks on her arms, a map to the pain,
Every hit she takes, she’s losing her name.
[Chorus]
Neon and needles, a dangerous dance,
She trades her tomorrows for one more chance.
Powder on the table, smoke in the air,
A fragile dream crumbles, but nobody cares.
[Bridge]
She says, "I’m just a flame that burns too fast,
A spark in the dark that’ll never last.
But the lights out here are my only home,
I’m a queen of shadows, forever alone."
