when sky blue gets dark enough

to see the colors of the city lights

a trail of ruby red and diamond white

hits her like a sunrise



she comes and goes and comes and goes

like no one can



tonight she's out to lose herself

and find a high on Peachtree Street

from mixed drinks to techno beats

it's always heavy into everything



she comes and goes and comes and goes

like no one can

she comes and goes and no one knows

she's slipping through my hands



she's always buzzing just like

neon, neon

neon, neon

who knows how long, how long, how long

she can go before she burns away



I can't be her angel now

you know it's not my place to hold her down

and it's hard for me to take a stand

when I would take her anyway I can



she comes and goes and comes and goes

like no one can

she comes and goes and no one knows

she's slipping through my hands



she's always buzzing just like

neon, neon

neon, neon

who knows how long, how long, how long

she can go before she burns away
