  • I loved you, you made me, hate me
    You gave me hate, see?
    It saved me and these tears are deadly
    You feel that I rip back, every time you tried to steal that
    You feel bad, you feel sad?
    I'm sorry, hell no fuck that
    It was my heart, it was my life, it was my start, it was your knife
    This strife, it dies, this life and these lies
    And these lungs, have sung, this song, for too long,
    And it's true, I hurt too, remember I loved you

    I've, lost it all, fell today, it's all the same
    I'm sorry oh , I'm sorry, I'm sorry, no
    And I've, been abused, I feel so used, because of you
    I'm sorry oh , I'm sorry, I'm sorry, no

    I wish I could have quit you, I wish I never missed you
    And told you that I loved you, every time I fucked you
    The future that we both drew, and all the shit we've been through,
    Obsessed with the thought of you, the pain just grew and grew.
    How could you do this to me?
    Look at what I made for you, it never was enough and the world is what I gave to you
    I used to be love struck, now I'm just fucked up,
    Pull up my sleeves and see the pattern of my cuts

    And I've, lost it all, fell today, it's all the same
    I'm sorry oh , I'm sorry, I'm sorry, no
    And I've, been abused, I feel so used, because of you
    I'm sorry oh , I'm sorry, I'm sorry, no

    Seems like all we had is over now you left to rest
    And your tears are dried up now, you just lay without a sound
    Seems like all we had is over now, you left to rest
    And my fears are over now
    I can leave with my head down

    And I've, lost it all, fell today, it's all the same
    I'm sorry oh, I'm sorry no
    And I've, been abused, I feel so used, because of you
    I'm sorry oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry no
    I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry
    I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry
    I'm sorry, no Writer/s: ARON ERLICHMAN, GEORGE ARTHUR RAGAN, JOREL DECKER

  • Anonymous@Hayley from Hot Springs. Bro you do realize that in concert the band messes with each other? Why would jdog lie to someone out of concert when the question is serious. J-Dog explanation is the true one.
  • Haley from Hot SpringsIf you have watched or been to a Hollywood Undead concert, Then Charlie Scene explained that the story is not ment to be sad, and was about Jonhny 3 Tears making out with Charlie's sister.
  • Natalie from Berkshire, United KingdomThat isn't the real video. If you go onto YouTube and look at that video it would say that it was FAN MADE. Hollywood Undead haven't done a music video for Black Dahlia yet. And the song's not called My Black Dahlia, it's just Black Dahlia.
  • Azalea from Hot Springs, ArAcctually, the girlfriend cheated on him and then killed herself. Now hes wishing he hadnt loved her even though he still misses and loves her. Because in the video shes in bed with another guy when he walked in and the lyrics: "I wish I could have quit you, I wish I never missed you, and told you that I loved you every time I f**ked you. The future that we both drew, and all the sh*t we've been through, obsessed with the thought of you, the pain just grew and grew. How could you do this to me? Look at what I made for you. There never was enough in the world, just what I gave you. I used to be lovestruck, now Im just f**ked up."
  • Haley from Honaker, VaThese guys are straight up, they put their heart and soul into their music. It seems to have worked out best for them; now, so many people can relate to their music. "And it's true, I hurt too, remember, I love you!" One of the best lines they have in that song..it makes you think of either break-up or death..they have so much emotion and that is what makes them great. People can relate to their music and that's what people want.
  • Buddy from Sb, Njused to be LOVESTRUCK now im just F-CKED UP pull up my sleeve and see the PATTERN OF MY CUTS

    best line i hav ever heard. lol
  • Syton from Colorado Springs, CoI agree with Daniel, these guys just tell it like it is, I love it.
  • Daniel from Jacksonville, Flhollywood undead is like the greatest band ever!! they got some crazy lyrics, they're awesome!!
