lyrics

Every night she closed her eyes
Every night she turned afraid
When the sex dripped on her lips mixed with the teardrops
Daddy’s little girl became erased
When she crawled across the sheets onto the A-list
The attention took her tension away
In the company of wolves there is no sympathy
We feed on the remains

And I hear screams
I hear screams, like a victim for the first time
I hear screams, I hear screams

In the City of Angels she lay
Skin soaked in the chlorine and the cocaine
No love will sail her over this dirty ocean
If she returns, she returns to pain
For her the safest place is here
Between the porno and the comfort of her deepest fears
In the strobe light we embrace her like prey
She just rises into the aether

[She’s dancing in the darkroom
Unfolding her feathers
Unlocking her secrets
She’s dancing in the darkroom]

And I hear screams
I hear screams, like a victim for the first time
I hear screams, I hear screams

Wake up, daddy’s little girl
