[Intro] Scarlet... Harlot... [Verse 1] Crimson hair catches every light Like a match against the midnight sky Every room forgets to breathe Every eye follows where you leave Lipstick stains on a coffee cup You never stay long enough Half the town swears you're the one The other half says "better run" [Pre-Chorus] You smile like you've already won Then disappear before the sun [Chorus] Scarlet Harlot Where you going now? Always slipping through the crowd Leaving everybody wondering how Scarlet Harlot You come and you go like the tide I keep looking for the reasons why But they disappear with your goodbye [Verse 2] Your leather jacket hides the cold Your laugh sounds fearless, brave and bold But sometimes when the room grows still Your eyes say things your voice never will Every story's different somehow Nobody really knows you now You're the rumor everyone repeats But never gets the chance to keep [Pre-Chorus] You never leave the same way twice Just another roll of loaded dice [Bridge] Maybe we're all just chasing ghosts Trying to hold what leaves the most If I could stop you for one night... Would you finally let me inside? [Final Chorus] Scarlet Harlot Where you going now? Still disappearing through the crowd Leaving echoes ringing loud Scarlet Harlot Maybe someday you'll slow down Maybe someday you'll turn around Till then you're only passing through... Scarlet... Scarlet... Scarlet... Harlot... [Outro]
