Ghost Hounds - Black Rose

RAISED UP ON THE MEAN STREETS
WHERE A GIRL GOTTA SAVE HERSELF
HER DADDY WAS A ROUGHNECK
WITH A BIBLE AND A BELT

YOU THINK SHE'S JUST A FLOWER
UNTIL YOU FEEL THE THORN
DON'T CUT YOURSELF ON THE EDGES
OF A WOMAN WHO'S BEEN TORN

IF YOU DARE TO CROSS HER HEART
SHE'LL LEAVE YOU WITH A CALLING CARD
AIN'T AFRAID OF THE DARKNESS SHE'S ALWAYS KNOWN
BLACK ROSE, BLACK ROSE

THE BOYS ON QUEENSBOROUGH AVENUE
FOUND OUT THEY MET THEIR MATCH
BUT WHEN THEY LAID THEIR HANDS ON A GIRL LIKE YOU
THEY WERE SOON DISPATCHED

IF YOU DARE TO CROSS HER HEART
SHE'LL LEAVE YOU WITH A CALLING CARD
AIN'T AFRAID OF THE DARKNESS SHE'S ALWAYS KNOWN
BLACK ROSE, BLACK ROSE

DON'T TAKE TO BEING PUSHED AROUND
AIN'T GIVING UP AN INCH OF GROUND
NO NO
A LOTTA BROKEN GHOSTS IN THIS TOWN
IF THEY COULD TALK THEY'D SAY DON'T GET TOO CLOSE
TO BLACK ROSE

IF YOU DARE TO CROSS HER HEART
SHE'LL LEAVE YOU WITH A CALLING CARD
AIN'T AFRAID OF THE DARKNESS SHE'S ALWAYS KNOWN
IF YOU LOOK INTO HER EYES
SHE'LL SEE THE TRUTH BEHIND YOUR LIES
DIM THE LIGHTS IF YOU DARE TO GET CLOSE
AIN'T AFRAID OF THE DARKNESS SHE'S ALWAYS KNOWN
BLACK ROSE, BLACK ROSE
