[Intro] Wake up wired, eyes full of static Saints in leather, kissin’ something tragic Sky split open like a bad idea We laughed too hard and disappeared [Verse 1] We were kids with the wrong kind of halo Spray-paint hearts on the church of the fatal Cheap smoke, cracked lips, glitter on our teeth Tryna find some truth underneath Everybody selling plastic salvation Everybody posing like a revelation But we got loud in the dead of night Made our own god from the broken light [Pre-Chorus] Spin me out, let the whole room melt I don’t wanna be fixed, I just wanna be felt Hands up high with a head full of stars Tryna make a home in the wreck we are [Chorus] We are the neon communion Punk blood, psychedelic ruin Dance like the end ain’t coming so soon Laugh in the face of a blacked-out moon We are the glitter infection Bad dreams turned resurrection Heartbeats sharp as a switchblade hymn If I go down, you’re going with me again [Verse 2] Saw your face in the flicker and haze Like a lost transmission from the better days You said, “Love ain’t clean, but it still cuts through” I said, “That sounds dangerous enough to be true” So we ran through the night with our nerves on fire Middle fingers up to the old empire Every bruise looked gold in the flashing light Every wrong turn felt almost right [Pre-Chorus] Pull me close while the whole thing shakes There’s a strange little peace in the risks we take No clean lines, no safe way through Just me, the void, and the spark in you [Chorus] We are the neon communion Punk blood, psychedelic ruin Dance like the end ain’t coming so soon Laugh in the face of a blacked-out moon We are the glitter infection Bad dreams turned resurrection Heartbeats sharp as a switchblade hymn If I go down, you’re going with me again [Bridge] Color drips off the walls tonight Red like fury, blue like spite Gold like hope with its last cigarette Green like all the things we regret Round and round, let the planets bend Maybe nothing lasts, but the feeling can Maybe truth is just a flashlight beam Cutting holes in a fever dream [Breakdown] Lose your mind Lose your name Burn the script Reject the frame Dead-end kids with a cosmic grin We don’t fade out We break in [Final Chorus] We are the neon communion Scarred up, holy delusion Sing like the cops and the gods can hear Still don’t bow, still don’t fear We are the last good eruption Noise, love, sweat, corruption Heartbeats bright in the chemical dim If I go down, you’re going with me again [Outro] And the morning came ugly But we were still glowing Hair full of smoke Hands still shaking World still cruel Sky still strange But we were alive And that had to mean something
