Neon Grave
Burying Regrets in Neon Shadows
Lyrics
Mother jealousy got the best of me but I did the best I could
Struggled with feelings of envy from a maternal figure but tried my best.
As I watched her from the window
Observing someone, likely the mother figure, from a distance.
It didn't feel the way it should
Feeling disconnected or wrong about the observed situation.
Am I a sinner or a saint?
Questioning personal morality.
Am I damned or am I saved?
Uncertain about being condemned or redeemed.
Or is it time I buried it deep in a neon grave?
Contemplating whether it's time to hide these emotions in a symbolic, artificial place (neon grave).
It's just sleep
Suggesting that it's only a temporary state akin to sleep.
Must be in the middle of a
Transition, perhaps indicating a disruption or change in perception.
Bad dream gave you what you wanted now I'm
Seemingly providing someone's desire but feeling isolated.
Dressed up alone under color in a
Alone, wearing a facade in public (metaphorically "under color") despite feeling incomplete.
We'll take the no's off all the vacancy signs and watch the limelight fade
Removing rejection and watching the attention fade.
You'll be the one I'll always dream of
Someone significant, always in thoughts.
I'll be the one who slipped away
One who got away, possibly regretted.
Are we stuck in yesterday?
Questioning if stuck in the past.
Or are we dying for a change?
Considering whether change is desired even if it means significant consequences.
Maybe it's time we buried it deep in a neon grave
Thinking of hiding these feelings in a symbolic "neon grave."
