[Verse 1]
Here darkness never quite descends
Only the toughest stars
Hang with neon friends
Over neon candy stores
Till the bitter end

[Verse 2]
Oh, madness waits for me someday
Raising a Champagne glass
Down some dark alleyway
Down some mean magnetic street
Stopping me to say

[Chorus]
You could live anywhere you want to
Give me one reason to stay

[Verse 3]
Here monsters walk the earth again
Mermaids in black and gold
Perfume and cocaine
Rising from a teeming sea
Asking me again

[Chorus]
You could have anyone you want to
Give me one reason to stay
I think I'll stay
