Streetlights flicker broken dreams Shadows dance like silent screams We're wandering lost in neon hues Searching for midnight rendezvous Laughter echoes through the night Broken bones and fading light Grim faces but the jokes still fly Hunger calls let's heed the cry Silver forks and haunted eyes In the diner till sunrise Eating sorrow slice by slice Friends together in disguise Ghost of meals past in the air We wipe our doubts from the chair Midnight whispers secrets untold In the warmth from the cold Every bite a fleeting sigh In this diner shadows lie Fragile smiles and whispered lies In this place our truth denies Silver forks and haunted eyes In the diner till sunrise Eating sorrow slice by slice Friends together in disguise Coffee stains on midnight rage Turning pages of life's cage We'll be fine just one more meal In the darkness, wounds will heal
