Crumpled bills on the countertop
Neon lights hum
They never stop
My glass is tipping time slides slow
Caught in a haze where shadows glow
The room sways like a worn-out tune
Under the spill of a cutting moon
Lost in the echoes hearts unfold
Stories untold in the smoky cold
I lean on words that peel like rust
Dreams are cheap but the air's full of dust
Voices murmur like a prayer that's bent
Chasing a moment that's already spent
The room sways like a worn-out tune
Under the spill of a cutting moon
Lost in the echoes hearts unfold
Stories untold in the smoky cold
Notes drift sharp through a midnight sea
Fragile truths drown in the melody
The walls breathe secrets in a blue-laced air
The world dissolves but I don't care
My pulse keeps time to a rogue refrain
A clock with no hands no tracks remain
Empty promises tap out the song
But the rhythm says I've been here too long
