Neon History

[Intro] [Verse 1] Blue mascara running down my face Sitting in the back of your Chevrolet You taste like nicotine and cheap red wine Promising forever for the very last time The radio is humming a song from '62 And honestly, darlin’, I’m still suffocating over you [Chorus] Oh, look at us now, dancing in the dark Two beautiful ruins, playing with a spark You hold me like a trophy, then you leave me in the rain God, you look so pretty when you’re causing me pain And the neon sign is bleeding on the boulevard... Loving you is beautiful, but history is hard. [Verse 2] Hollywood is burning, or maybe it’s just me Chasing after ghosts of who we used to be You’ve got that James Dean pout, that dangerous stare And I’m just a tragic girl running my fingers through your hair We’re a black and white movie that nobody wants to watch Pour another glass, babe, drown me in the scotch. [Chorus] Oh, look at us now, dancing in the dark Two beautiful ruins, playing with a spark You hold me like a trophy, then you leave me in the rain God, you look so pretty when you’re causing me pain And the neon sign is bleeding on the boulevard... Loving you is beautiful, but history is hard. [Bridge] We chase the glow till it burns our hands A kiss that bites, a memory that lands [Chorus] Oh, look at us now, dancing in the dark Two beautiful ruins, playing with a spark You hold me like a trophy, then you leave me in the rain God, you look so pretty when you’re causing me pain And the neon sign is bleeding on the boulevard... Loving you is beautiful, but history is hard. [Outro] History is hard, but we’re still trying History is hard, but you’re still lying
