Neon Halo Heartbreak

(Verse 1)

Mama said I used to shine in the driveway

Spinnin’ in my thrift-store dress like a disco ball

But this town got tired of my glitter highways

Said a girl like me ain’t meant to glow at all

So I packed my boots, kissed the cornfields goodbye

Hit the freeway with a dream and a cheap champagne

City lights said, baby you were born to fly

And my heart beat fast like a runaway train

(Pre-Chorus)

Now I’m dancing under lights that finally see me

Silver lashes, high-heel freedom on my feet

Every lonely night becomes a little less heavy

When the music pulls me back into the beat

(Chorus)

’Cause I found my neon halo, shining pink and gold

In a basement club where the misfits go

And they call my name like I’m heaven’s runaway

I’m a heartbreak angel on a borrowed stage

But oh—

In this neon halo heartbreak

I finally feel safe

(Verse 2)

Got a roommate who reads tarot in the kitchen

She says my past life was a wild, untamed star

Guess that’s why I feel the universe shifting

Every time I climb on top of the bar

I ain’t famous, but they cheer like I’m someone

Throw their hands up when I hit that final pose

And even though I’m still a long way from home

I’m the brightest thing the night sky chose

(Pre-Chorus)

Now I’m painting all my fears in glitter candy

Let the strangers hold my hurt until it fades

Every broken piece becomes a little more magic

When the bassline tells me everything’s okay

(Chorus)

’Cause I found my neon halo, shining pink and gold

In a basement club where the misfits go

And they call my name like I’m heaven’s runaway

I’m a heartbreak angel on a borrowed stage

But oh—

In this neon halo heartbreak

I finally feel safe

(Bridge)

Maybe someday, mama, you’ll come see me

See your shy little girl become a wildfire queen

Maybe you’ll cry, maybe you’ll say you’re proud

But either way—I’m dancing now

(Final Chorus)

Yeah, I found my neon halo, shining pink and gold

In a basement club where the misfits go

And I’m not afraid, no, I’m finally awake

Under flashing lights, I know I’m meant to stay

So oh—

In this neon halo heartbreak

I made my own place
