Buried in the Barlight

City lights cut through the fog

Every sinner hides like a stray dog

My boots drag on the broken street

Every echo's her heartbeat

The rain keeps falling, washing pain

But the stains always remain

Bartender knows, he just stares

We've both outlived our share of prayers

Neon bones under my skin

They glow when the night sets in

Buried in the barlight, I confess

I'm just a ghost in a whiskey mess

The jukebox sighs, a lonely tune

The kind you play when you miss the moon

I hum along, I pour her name

Every song bleeds just the same

So here's to love, to loss, to pain

To every night that felt the same

Neon bones still shining true

Buried deep, but burning blue
