  • A vial of hope and a vial of pain
    In the light they both looked the same
    Poured them out on into the world
    On every boy and every girl

    It's in the neon Bible, the neon Bible
    Not much chance for survival
    If the neon Bible is right

    Take the poison of your age
    Don't lick your fingers when you turn the page
    What I know is what you know is right
    In the city it's the only light

    It's the neon Bible, the neon Bible
    Not much chance for survival
    If the neon Bible is right

    Oh God, well look at you now
    Oh, you lost it, but you don't know how
    In the light of a golden calf
    Oh God! I had to laugh

    Take the poison of your age
    Don't lick your fingers when you turn the page
    It was wrong, but you said it was right
    In the future I will read at night

    In the neon Bible, the neon Bible
    Not much chance for survival
    If the neon Bible is true Writer/s: Jeremy Gara, Regine Chassagne, Richard R Parry, Tim Kingsbury, William Butler, Win Butler
