Broken Doll

I see

My past in Leimert Park

Where I was laid down

In the dark

Taken trust

And drained of blood

My arms stretched out

For one last hug

I see

My present in Leimert Park

I'm incomplete

So pale and stark

Two halves

For you and none for me

I smile too wide

For all to see

Secrets secrets are no fun

Secrets secrets hurt someone

Secrets secrets are no fun

Secrets secrets hurt someone

I hit the big time finally

I am the broken doll of Los Angeles

Secrets secrets are no fun

Secrets secrets hurt someone

Secrets secrets are no fun

Secrets secrets hurt someone

I hit the big time finally

I am the broken doll of Los Angeles

I see

My future in Leimert Park

'Cuz it's where I

Where I made my mark

What killed me

Made me stronger

They took my picture

Now I last longer

(From my rotting flesh)

(The Dahlias grow)

(And I am in them)

(And that is eternity)

(Please remember me)
