The Weather Station - Neon Signs

[@mdshcoffeehouseyt]

Lyrics : I've gotten used to feeling like I'm crazy or just lazy Why can't I get off this floor? Think straight anymore? Out on the street, I went walking in a punishing heat Nobody meets my eyes except witty signs and luxury designs Every neon sign, every flashing light tries to fool you Get you on their side, everybody swears they need you And only you to make the buy You feel flattered to be wanted and you don't know why It reminds me of that look, that look in your eyes Never enough in a world without trust Having to rely upon the lightning flash of lust Like it's almost the same as love Every neon sign, every flashing light tried to fool me There I was just stretching out my mind To take in every wounded story Nothing needs you so badly as a lie So lonely, drifting, unmoored from real life Begging, begging somebody to keep it alive Living rough in a world without trust Having to rely upon the honesty of lust You had to make yourself wanted, to get what you wanted Now you got me this broken prize Clinging to you but blank in the eyes Want is a feeling you can't take alive Till I fell out of desire like a slipped knot I fell out of desire and nothing caught I fell out of the fire wasn't even hot I could feel nothing nothing nothing nothing naught My want was honest you tried to direct it But it was connected to something I can't explain Immersed in all my pain Like a root in a ceiling drain Breaking apart everything I never knew it I tried so hard to cut through it Never enough in a world without trust Determined broken open and refusing to adjust I swear to god I saw real love once But nothing needs you so badly as a lie So lonely, drifting, unmoored from real life If nobody believes it all it can do is die
