NYZA ORIGINALS
Neon Teeth
She's glowing in the dark at 2am, laughing too loud at his jokes while her best friend watches from the bathroom mirror—knowing that smile is borrowed, that the light in her eyes will go out the moment he leaves. But tonight, she's choosing to let it burn anyway.
Lyrics
Verse 1
You're a habit I can taste
Sugar coating the mistake
I know how this ends
But I'm grinning anyway
Your hands on my waist
Feel like borrowed grace
I'm a fool but I'm glowing
And that's enough tonight
Chorus
I got neon teeth, biting down on what's fake
Shining through the dark 'cause I love the ache
You're poison in the best way
I know you're going away
But I got neon teeth
And they're beautiful and bright
I got neon teeth
Let me glow before I die
Verse 2
You're the sweetest kind of lie
I'm the girl who knows why
Still walks back inside
Where the light tastes like you
My friends say I'm insane
For dancing in the pain
But when you look at me
I don't feel broken, I feel alive
Chorus
I got neon teeth, biting down on what's fake
Shining through the dark 'cause I love the ache
You're poison in the best way
I know you're going away
But I got neon teeth
And they're beautiful and bright
I got neon teeth
Let me glow before I die
Bridge
They say good girls don't stay
In the wreckage and the wraith
But I'm tired of dim
I'd rather burn and remember your name
Than live safe and forgotten
Outro
Neon teeth, neon teeth
Shining in the wreckage
Neon teeth
Let me glow, let me glow
Before the light goes out
