Neon Forest lyrics

I'm sliding like a lizard on my belly and back

It's a miracle I haven't fallen through any cracks

The life on display is trouble for sure

The drugs that I took have made me impure

The neon forest is lighting up

The neon forest is lighting up

My brain

I've learned some nasty lessons so I'm shutting

My mouth

A fury in my gut is spinning me round

And round

To be a total phony is the winning design

When the fabric of life is a horny goldmine

The neon forest is my home

And like a cartoon cat I roam

Where only kids are still alive

And anyway they're gonna fry

My brain

You can get a weird prize for being adored

You can join the "in crowd" for being a whore

Although you are lonely you wish for a fence

America takes drugs in psychic defense

You can say what you want but nobody's there

Have you got any money?

Are you anybody?
