CALL 911

Call the 911
'Cause there's a bitch dying
In the back of a taxi
With her mascara crying

Call the 911
Tell them love got violent
Not with hands, but with silence
Now the whole room's siren

I saw your picture with her
And I forgot how to breathe
My heart fell out my body
And collapsed in the street

There were witnesses, darling
There was blood on the floor
Not real blood, but the kind
That hurts a little bit more

And I don't mean to be dramatic
But I think I saw the light
It was flashing from my phone screen
At 2:45

You said you needed space
So I gave you the sky
Now I'm lying here gorgeous
With a knife in my pride

Call the 911
Cause there's a bitch dying
In the back of a taxi
With her mascara crying

Call the 911
Tell them love got violent
Not with hands, but with silence
Now the whole room's siren

Call the 911
Tell my mother I tried
Tell my friends I looked pretty
On the night that I died

Call the 911
Tell the priest I was right
I was murdered by a man
Who said: Maybe another time

I wore the dress you liked
What a waste of red silk
I drank gin like communion
With a heart full of guilt

And the waiter kept asking
Miss, are you okay?
I said: No, but be honest
Does my sadness look great?

Cause if I'm going down
Let me go down divine
With my earrings still shining
And my name underlined

You can tell all the papers
It was tragic but chic
She was young, she was hungry
She was gone by next week

Call the 911
Cause there's a bitch dying
In the back of a taxi
With her mascara crying

Call the 911
Tell them love got violent
Not with hands, but with silence
Now the whole room's siren

Call the 911
Tell my mother I tried
Tell my friends I looked pretty
On the night that I died

Call the 911
Tell the priest I was right
I was murdered by a man
Who said: Maybe another time

And if I wake up tomorrow
Please don't call it survival
Call it resurrection
With a touch of denial

I'll put my heels back on
I'll return from the dead
I'll delete every message
But remember what you said

Call the 911
Cause there's a bitch dying
But she's coming back holy
And beautifully frightening
