GranDilusionist - House of the Neon Sun Lyrics

There is a house in New Orleans
Beneath the neon lights
It's a place where dreams all fade away
And haunt you every night
My mother she told me to stay away
From the shadows in the street
But I found myself inside those walls
Where the broken hearts all meet
Oh mother won't you save me now
From the things I've seen and done?
I lost my soul my hope my way
In the house of the neon sun
The cards they play a wicked game
And the whiskey burns like fire
But it's not the drink that drags you down
It's the weight of your desire
I've known the girls with painted smiles
And the men who gamble all
But no one wins inside these walls
Where even angels fall
Oh mother won't you save me now
From the things I've seen and done?
I lost my soul my hope my way
In the house of the neon sun
The city sings a siren's call
A song of sin and shame
And once you walk beneath those lights
You'll never be the same
I'm packing up I've had my fill
But the memories don't fade
Though I'm running far from that cold house
Its debt I'll always pay
Oh mother won't you save me now
From the things I've seen and done?
I lost my soul my hope my way
In the house of the neon sun
There is a house in New Orleans
Beneath the neon lights
It's a place where dreams all fade away
And haunt you every night
