courtney leigh heins - black dahlia lyrics

Loading...

h-llo, i know much more now than many years ago
the only time you really need to watch your back
is when things are good and slow

traded in my east coast wind
for more hot and dry
but the people out here, they just feed off your fear
they wanna take you for a ride

and stay away from that highway 101
she’s as evil as can be
some got this town all figured out
just ask any ghost you see

’cause if you stay here long enough
someone’s bound to notice
and if you bury your heart next to marilyn
you might want it to get frozen

h-llo, where have you been?
heard you got yourself a wife
i’ve been layin’ bricks for some government thing
‘said i could build me quite a life

see, when i was little they told me that i could be anything
as long as i stuck by it
but what they don’t say is that they’ll hunt ‘ya down
if you’re bold enough to try it

h-llo? are you still there?
got to admit, i’m a little scared
we ran out of conversation, then he ran out on me
he left his pocket watch with a hotel key

so i painted on a smile, and i waited for a while
at a down-and-out canteen
well, he showed up at the bar lookin’ just like a movie star
who just stepped off the silver screen

say, “h-llo, i didn’t mean to go
let me take you for a ride
’cause i wanna make sure that a pretty girl like you
don’t ever leave my sight”

then he took me downtown, and drove us all around
and he showed me up the stairs
take me home, please, i don’t wanna go, please
he said “honey, say your prayers”

but i know one day, i’m gonna make front page
and everyone will know my face
from the bullet bar, to the scotland yard
they’ll all be whisperin’ my name

“she was wearin’ all black
disappeared and never came back
she never lived to see her fate”

h-llo, it’s me you know
how can everyone see through me?
i saw your name when the newspaper came
thought ‘ya said you knew me

h-llo, h-llo, h-llo
