Cold Neon Prayer

Intro

Cold air through the station doors

Blue light flickers on wet concrete

Someone laughs somewhere behind me

Like a memory I can't enter anymore

Static in the taxi radios

Morning bleeding into smoke

Every face looks half erased

Like a dream the city already forgot

Verse 1

I walked three hours through the empty districts

Hands shaking inside my coat

There's a pharmacy glowing white at the corner

Like a church for the damaged and alone

The bars are closing one by one now

Chairs upside down like broken limbs

And everyone I used to disappear with

Found somebody else to ruin them

Pre-Chorus

I still hear your voice sometimes

Inside electrical hums

Inside refrigerator light

Inside the silence before dawn

Chorus

So I whisper cold neon prayers

To nobody listening above

That maybe there's still something breathing

Under all this chemical rust

And the streetlights blur like heaven

Through exhausted poisoned eyes

While the city slowly empties me

One sleepless night at a time

Verse 2

There's a man asleep beside the station

Wrapped in newspapers and rain

I almost asked him if survival

Ever stops feeling this strange

My phone still holds your last voicemail

I know every pause by heart

You sounded tired of forgiving

Long before we fell apart

Bridge

Maybe love was only borrowed light

Brief warmth against the flood

Maybe all we ever wanted

Was someone to witness us

And maybe hope is just a reflex

The body refuses to kill

A weak pulse beneath the static

Some tiny thing surviving still

Final Chorus

So I whisper cold neon prayers

Under flickering hospital skies

While trains drag shadows through the darkness

Like ghosts learning how to die

And somewhere beyond the river

Morning slowly stains the grey

I don't think I believe in rescue

But I stayed alive today

Outro

"Maybe that's enough for now…"
