Behind the Neon Veil - Alt

[Verse] Smoke thick like lies hanging in the air black as sin City's teeth bite hard cruel grin dragging me in Her photo static smile a ghost in my hand Can't find her in this wasteland where the lost make their stands [Verse 2] Whiskey burns my throat but don't drown no ghosts Amp stacks hum louder can't silence my host Her scent lingers in the alley death and perfume Every clue falls apart tying knots in my room [Chorus] Behind the neon veil shadows whisper my name This ain't a game this ain't clean it's a stain She's a song stuck in static plays round my skull Sex drugs rock and roll made my soul dull [Verse 3] Bedsheets tangled sweat stained dreams of regret Blame piles like ash still can't pay off my debt Drugs haze the pain but can't fade her scream Her face haunts my walls she's more than a dream [Bridge] I stumble through gutters high from the truth I bled Chasing ghosts in the rhythm of what can't be dead Needle skips on vinyl heartbeat syncs with despair Losing her then losing me it's all unfair [Chorus] Behind the neon veil shadows whisper my name This ain't a game this ain't clean it's a stain She's a song stuck in static plays round my skull Sex drugs rock and roll made my soul dull
