[Intro] Attention shoppers The apocalypse is now on sale [Verse 1] Black lipstick resurrection Fishnet heart infection You kissed me near the arcade lights Now I haunt the mall at night Platform boots and silver chains Tiny gods inside our brains Everybody’s overdressed For emotional distress [Pre-Chorus] Flashlights Pink skies Everybody dramatized Fake tears Bad tattoos Teenage panic in platform shoes [Chorus] Hot Topic exorcism Love turned into vandalism Dancing while the ceiling falls tonight Hot Topic exorcism Broken heart evangelism We look holy underneath the lights You said forever Like a curse Now we only make it worse [Post-Chorus] Hey hey Possessed together Hey hey Teenage forever [Verse 2] Food court séance after dark Drawing hearts with eyeliner marks Security says leave this place But chaos looks good on my face CD player full blast screams Static from our fever dreams Every rumor multiplies Like glitter in fluorescent light [Pre-Chorus] Black smoke Lip gloss Everybody getting lost No sleep No shame Set the whole mall up in flames [Chorus] Hot Topic exorcism Love turned into vandalism Dancing while the ceiling falls tonight Hot Topic exorcism Broken heart evangelism We look holy underneath the lights You said forever Like a curse Now we only make it worse [Bridge] Run run runaway Stereo distortion Run run runaway Beautiful corruption Pink stars Nightmares Kissing like electric chairs [Final Chorus] Hot Topic exorcism Teenage nihilism Singing while the world burns neon bright Hot Topic exorcism Mall goth baptism Everybody wants a piece tonight We were reckless We were loud Now we’re ghosts inside the crowd [Outro] Attention shoppers Your last chance romance is closing forever
