Ghosts in the Neon (Version 2)

Verse

I lose you in the smoke and strobe lights

Your hand lets go but your eyes stay bright

I'm searching through a sea of faces

Every stranger's your identical shape

I count the steps we took before this floor

The same four feet that I'm walking for

Every move we made, every line we drew

You're not here, and you never were

Pre-Chorus

Tell me what it is that keeps you in my head

A shadow on a wall or just a ghost instead

Chorus

Ghosts in the neon moving through my skin

I'm dancing with the echoes of your heartbeat within

Verse

I turn around and you're not there to hold

The room's too crowded, every face is cold

Your voice whispers low where the speakers hum

You say 'don't let go', but you never come

In a crowd of strangers that all start to blur

Every single one of them is somehow your name in my ear

I keep on moving through this endless haze

Hoping someday I'll turn around and find you here

Pre-Chorus

Tell me what it is that keeps you in my head

A shadow on a wall or just a ghost instead

Chorus

Ghosts in the neon moving through my skin

I'm dancing with the echoes of your heartbeat within

Bridge

Maybe this is all I'll ever get to keep

A light across the room, a memory that won't sleep

Outro

Ghosts in the neon moving through my skin

You're gone but I still move like we're kin
