Lyric

Sitting on the edge of the night

Waiting for the lights to blur

Inside my glass

The city starts to sway

Starlight slides across the sky

And falls onto the terrace

Neon loses all its edges

Like it gave up its name

Warm amber running

Through my cold fingers

The world I stared at so straight

Drifts a little farther away

The moment I lose the focus

Breathing gets easier

More than the right answer

I want the blur tonight

The night peels off the lies

Quietly, quietly

Every time the ice melts

The view begins to change

“Real feelings” aren’t straight shots

You can’t drink them down

It’s the crooked light instead

That stays in my chest

The angle of my smile

The words I chose

Daytime me

Was a little too sharp

The city through the glass

Softly bleeding out

A night full of mistakes

Looks honest somehow

I’m not running away

I’m not closing my eyes

I just changed the angle

That’s all it was

The night peels off the lies

The backs of all the lights

Every time the ice melts

My heart starts to sway

“Real feelings” aren’t straight shots

They’re too strong that way

Diluted vision

Is how they finally reached me

In this swaying world

My shadow overlaps

So it wouldn’t break

I let it bend

The night peels off the lies

Beyond the rim of the glass

Every time the ice melts

I start to change

“Real feelings” aren’t straight shots

I can’t drink them down

So tonight

Slow is just fine

Still swaying

I look at the world

At the bottom of the glass

Light sinks down
