Brett Detar Empty House On A Famous Hill
The Santa Anna wind won’t stop blowing
hot and hard like it’s pushing me aside.
She’s too hot not to burn you but you’ll pay for her
time
so just take a swig and let her say goodbye.
In a dark empty house on a famous old hill
if they don’t love you now they never will.
Cause if you sell your heart to their empty souls
you’ll be vacant like this house upon the hill.
The city in the smog leaves you broken like her faded
landmarks get built up to fall.
You get tossed along the freeway when her new thing
comes along
but she can never let your heart forget at all.
In a dark empty house on a famous old hill
if they don’t love you now they never will.
Cause if you sell your heart to their empty souls
you’ll be vacant like this house upon the hill.
lonely in the spotlight
spit out like the salt
washed up on the coastline
that’s leaves a bittersweet taste in your dirty mouth.
I don’t wanna’ leave this way
but as sure as the sun on the 101 you won’t remember my
name.
I don’t wanna leave this way
but I can’t go on giving all of my love to town that
don’t feel the same.
