Something Bout Her

Something bout her 
makes her crave 
crave the addiction she's dying to need 
told her, she needs to walk away 
because the addiction just isnt worth the strain, 
but there she stood outside the rain 
calling for a man that never came 

In her velvet room 
wrapped in leather an lace, 
she was singing for the things money cant buy 
wondering if she'll ever make it out alive 
I told her, nothing lasts forever 
nothing ever changes when your sable on blonde 

She tried living life in the fast lane, 
but ended up with heartache tonight 
people told her to take it easy, 
but she died in that house on the hill
