[Verse]
West Helena breathes, brick veins frozen, molten
Abandoned echoes shout, whisper, swollen
Windows wink, shattered smiles, dust golden
Sidewalks hum lullabies, broken and stolen
[Prechorus]
The air bites, sweet venom, no remorse
It hugs, it strangles, a crooked force
[Chorus]
Cold warm hot, streets don’t stop
Loud silently, the heartbeats drop
West Helena speaks, it never forgot
Cold warm hot, cold warm hot
[Verse 2]
Rust tattoos on the skeletons of old dreams
Chimneys weep ash, tears that steam
Traffic lights blink secrets, red to green
A ghost town opera, stitched at the seams
[Bridge]
Air so thick, it writes on the skin
Breath it in, exhale sin
History whispers, let it begin
West Helena’s pulse beneath the din
[Chorus]
Cold warm hot, streets don’t stop
Loud silently, the heartbeats drop
West Helena speaks, it never forgot
Cold warm hot, cold warm hot
