[Verse 1]
It's five A.M., you're sitting at the hotel
Looking at your mermaid friend
So many people forgot who you were
Now they're calling you up again
It's five A.M
She moves a little closer to you
You're in past your knees, she taps you on your chin
The sea is full of sharks, now can you swim?
[Chorus]
Everybody's hiding in the neon lights
This city is a jungle, better learn to fight
Better learn the difference between church and pray
Never let them tell you, you can't go your way
Everybody's hiding in the neon lights
This city is a jungle, better learn to fight
Better learn the difference between do and say
Never let them tell you, you can't go your way
[Bridge]
Falling, darling
Hold on to, ooh-ooh, love
[Verse 2]
It's seven-o-two, you're sitting at the diner
Mumbling to the girl in blue
She pours you a drink, the table starts to sink
You hang on but you're falling through
It's seven-o-two, someone calls your name
Somewhere in the rubble, there's a flame
Somewhere in the dark is your past
Telling you to never look back
[Chorus]
Everybody's hiding in the neon lights
This city is a jungle, better learn to fight
Better learn the difference between church and pray
Never let them tell you, you can't go your way
Everybody's hiding in the neon lights
This city is a jungle, better learn to fight
Better learn the difference between do and say
Never let them tell you, you can't go your way
[Bridge]
Falling, darling
Hold on to, ooh-ooh, love
Falling, darling
Hold on to, ooh-ooh, love
[Chorus]
Everybody's hiding in the neon lights
This city is a jungle, better learn to fight
Better learn the difference between church and pray
Never let them tell you, you can't go your way
Everybody's hiding in the neon lights
This city is a jungle, better learn to fight
Better learn the difference between do and say
Never let them tell you, you can't go your way
