Lyrics
Verse 1
Midnight on the dash, city drippin' in the rain
Neon on the cup, purple galaxies in chains
Pocket full of ghosts, they rattlin' my jeans
Money counter screamin' like a broken limousine
Chrome teeth in the dark, everybody playin' hard
Engine fresh off the lot, black comet in the yard
Bass knock through the ribs, make the whole room cave in
Bills stacked to the lamp, watch the blue light cave in
She dance too close, glitter fallin' on my shoe
Perfume, cigarette smoke, red nails on the coupe
I came up where the sirens sang louder than the choir
Now the sun catch me awake, countin' ash beside the fire
Hook
Till the morning rise, I'm countin' paper, countin' paper
Till the morning rise, dark windows, dark favors
Till the morning rise, new wheels cut through vapor
Till the morning rise, I can't let the night break us
Verse 2
I know the alley names, know the stain on every brick
Know the look a man wear when his heartbeat start to twitch
Tint low, eyes red, moon drownin' in the glass
Whole room move slow when the shadow of me pass
Bought that brand new car just to hear the silence purr
Leather smell, cold wheel, all my doubts a distant blur
Hands in the air, gold light shakin' off her waist
Laugh sharp as a blade when she throw it in my face
Still the dawn at the blinds got a way of tellin' truth
Purple rings in the sink, little cracks around the roof
All this paper on the table, all this smoke above my head
And the birds start singin' like they don't know what I did
Hook
Till the morning rise, I'm countin' paper, countin' paper
Till the morning rise, dark windows, dark favors
Till the morning rise, new wheels cut through vapor
Till the morning rise, I can't let the night break us
Bridge
Blue lights in the mirror turn the trophies into scars
Sunlight on the hood don't erase where we are
Every dollar got a whisper, every whisper got a name
I keep drivin' through the dark, but the dark know mine the same
Hook
Till the morning rise, I'm countin' paper, countin' paper
Till the morning rise, dark windows, dark favors
Till the morning rise, new wheels cut through vapor
Till the morning rise, I can't let the night break us
