Lyric

Neon breathing slow

Last night you felt different

Like you knew where I’d land

I said I was just laughing

But you held my hand

City lights on my skin

Whiskey-soft, out of tune

Tell me—was it nothing?

Or did you feel it too?

I don’t know if it’s love

I don’t know what to call it

But my feet won’t move

When you say “stay”

Taxi lies, taxi lies

I said I couldn’t get home

Played drunk under neon signs

So you wouldn’t let me go

Taxi lies, taxi lies

No, I’m not that brave

I just wanted one more hour

In the dark with your name

I used to mock the city

“Love here never lasts”

Now I’m counting seconds

Trying to make it pass

Your jacket on my shoulder

My breath on your collarbone

Ask me if I’m leaving—

I’ll say I don’t know

I don’t know if you’re mine

I don’t know if you mean it

But I keep coming back

Like it’s already decided

Taxi lies, taxi lies

I said I couldn’t get home

Played drunk under neon signs

So you wouldn’t let me go

Taxi lies, taxi lies

No, I’m not that brave

I just wanted one more hour

In the dark with your name

If this is just a city thing

Let it be

But don’t look at me like that

And set me free

Taxi lies, taxi lies

I said I couldn’t get home

Played drunk under neon signs

So you wouldn’t let me go

Taxi lies, taxi lies

Maybe it’s all the same

But I’ll ask you one more time—

Can I see you again?

Neon breathing slow
