Lyrics: The fortune queen of New Orleans Was brushing her cat in her black limousine On the backseat were scratches from The marks of men, her fortune she had won Couldn't see through the tinted glass She said, "Home, James" and he hit the gas I followed her to some darkened room She took my money, she said, "I'll be with you soon" Dark lady laughed and danced and lit the candles one by one Danced to her gypsy music 'til her brew was done Dark lady played black magic 'til the clock struck on the 12 She told me more about me than I knew myself She dealt two cards, a queen and a three And mumbled some words that were so strange to me And then she turned up a two-eyed jack My eyes saw red but the card still stayed black She said, "The man you love is secretly true To someone else who is very close to you My advice is that you leave this place Never come back and forget you ever saw my face" Dark lady laughed and danced and lit the candles one by one Danced to her gypsy music 'til her brew was done Dark lady played black magic 'til the clock struck on the twelve She told me more about me than I knew myself So, I ran home and crawled in my bed I couldn't sleep because of all the things she said Then I remembered her strange perfume And how I smelled, it was in my own room And so, I sneaked back and caught her with my man Laughing and kissing 'til they saw the gun in my hand The next thing I knew they were dead on the floor Dark lady would never turn a card up anymore Dark lady laughed and danced and lit the candles one by one Danced to her gypsy music 'til her brew was done Dark lady played black magic 'til the clock struck on the 12
Hate her for replacing Elena from Damon's mind but she can't replace the past or the truth unless she rewrites everybody else's mind as well to make her Elena essentially but not bc she made sure in his mind Stefan never came to save Elena that night 😢 and she died a miserable death drowning is not the way I wanna go down if I can help it that is
Look Heart been broke so many times I don't know what to believe Mama say it's my fault, it's my fault I wear my heart on my sleeve Think it's best I put my heart on ice, heart on ice 'Cause I can't breathe I'ma put my heart on ice, heart on ice It's gettin' the best of me While in the cell with Lil' Wakeem, after I slapped him I had told him "I don't know how you get down with them clowns, but I'm a soldier" No one could understand, I had way too much aggression That built over the years from my abandoned adolescence See I done been lied to, backstabbed, and heartbroken I wanted to cry, but I was too afraid to open Prayin' one day I'd find a piece of mind by the ocean I spent all my time committing crimes to get closer While at my nana house I play the couch, starin' at the ceiling Tryin' not to get in my feelings Thinkin' of a way I could make these millions Maybe that'll take this pain away and clear up all these rainy days Heart been broke so many times I don't know what to believe (know what to believe) Mama say it's my fault, it's my fault I wear my heart on my sleeve (my fault) Think it's best I put my heart on ice, heart on ice 'Cause I can't breathe (I can't breathe, I can't breathe) I'ma put my heart on ice, heart on ice It's gettin' the best of me (the best of me) Ooh yeah, yeah Yeah Ooh yeah, yeah Yeah
