Neon Crimson Lyrics - Twelvefour - The Paper Kites

Wonder at the scarlet avenger 

Who tore out all my vitals 

Washed them pink and clean 

Never did I see such an ugly confession 

Sprung from my lips and met with open arms 

Such a prize must be showered with better than 'never sure' 

No I'm owing more 

It's a shot of neon crimson to the brain 

Lost sight in the streets of Manhattan 

Walked alone through the George Square 

Down the old fifth avenue 

Never had I felt more alone in the big lights 

I almost told you I wasn't coming home 

And all the buildings were hiding my view of 

Where I'm from and what I want 

It's a shot of neon crimson to the brain 

Taste me, it's not wrong to embrace me 

I know I seem like a stranger 

Like a song you used to sing 

But here I, here I stand at your feet 

And you're finding words to say 

But the only thing that matters anyway 

Is a shot of neon crimson to the brain
