Neon Shadows

2AM, neon on the ceiling Phone light shining, but I’m barely breathing Still awake for you Rain drops running down the window frame Taxi lights blur while I say your name Half-empty bottle on the kitchen side Your ghost still living in my mind I deleted every message twice Still got your number memorized Tell myself that I don’t care Then I check if you were there I know you’re bad for me But lonely gets so loud at night Every time I almost heal You hit my phone like city lights Why you gotta call me when the night gets cold? When I almost let your memory go You pull me back with your “I miss you” Even though we both know the truth I hate that I still wait for your text Still lose sleep every time you disconnect Maybe love and pain are way too close Maybe I just hate being alone Streetlights flicker through the bedroom shades Another song that somehow sounds the same Your hoodie hanging by the chair Like you still left yourself here Everybody says I should move on But silence hits when the party’s gone I fill my nights with noise and smoke Still hear your voice in every echo I know you’re bad for me But empty rooms got sharp edges Every time I lock the door I swear your shadow enters Why you gotta call me when the night gets cold? When I almost let your memory go You pull me back with your “I miss you” Even though we both know the truth I hate that I still wait for your text Still lose sleep every time you disconnect Maybe love and pain are way too close Maybe I just hate being alone Maybe I don’t miss you Maybe I miss who I was Back when your hands felt like home Back before everything broke Now the city keeps spinning While I’m stuck in this room Talking to your silence Like it still belongs to you Why you gotta love me like a temporary high? Leave me drowning every single night You say forever when you need somebody Then disappear without a goodbye And I know I should finally let this end But loneliness keeps sounding like your skin Maybe love and pain are way too close Maybe I’m just scared to be alone 2AM Still waiting for your name Neon shadows in the rain And I’m still awake
