Sixty-hour work week, I’m calling it done
Jack, Jim, and José calling again
Another Friday night, I ain’t drinking alone
Let these shots drown my past, yeah tonight I’m getting drunk on this throne
Neon’s buzzing louder than the thoughts in my head
Every drink I pour’s something I never said
I ain’t healed but I’m closer than I was before
Still learning how to walk through an open door
New nights, new lights, old shadows I know
Same scars, different bars, still learning to let go
I’m still here with a buzz and a smile
Trying to lose myself, just stay gone for a while
New nights, new lights, old shadows I know
Same scars, different bars, just taking it slow
Her eyes found mine in the neon glow
One slow smile said more than she knows
She pulled me in, yeah her hand on my chest
For a moment right there, I forgot all the rest
We laughed too loud over nothin’ at all
Two strangers leaning into the fall
Drinks on the table, no words unsaid
Just tension and energy hanging instead
She didn’t ask ’bout the scars in the rearview mirror
Just leaned a little closer, let the time feel real
New nights, new lights, old shadows I know
Same scars, different bars, still learning to let go
I’m still here with a buzz and a smile
Trying to lose myself, just stay gone for a while
New nights, new lights, old shadows I know
Same scars, different bars, just taking it slow
We closed that bar down when the lights came on
Last call ringing out but we didn’t run
Standing in the parking lot, words hard to find
That kind of silence that don’t need a line
No promises made, just a look that shows
This night’s still moving, just taking it slow
New nights, new lights, old shadows I know
Same scars, different bars, still learning to let go
I’m still here with a buzz and a smile
Trying to lose myself, just stay gone for a while
New nights, new lights, old shadows I know
Same scars, different bars, just taking it slow
