horror movies don’t hit like they used to Lyrics by Oakey

2021

[Chorus]
She said, she said, "I don't wanna hear you fuckin' scream"
It's perfect, your hiding place
Horror films don't hit like they used to, like they used to, babe
Feeding on thrills she lets the door stay wide open
[Verse 1]
Called me a cop out but lips don't lie
I'll watch from your closet with cold dead eyes
[Refrain]
Boo bitch, I'm a ghost hearing noises at night but I'm never in the room, so
Doomed, we're comatose but I can't let go
[Chorus]
She said, she said, "I don't wanna hear you fuckin' scream"
It's perfect, your hiding placе (Hiding away)
Horror films don't hit like they used to, likе they used to babe
Feeding on thrills she lets the door stay wide open
[Post-Chorus]
She said I've been hollow in the head
I'm feeling nauseous watching her walk away
Wanna be outside but I'm locked here, yeah, I'm locked here, babes
Does her kiss feel like throwing out, throwing out the key?
[Verse 2]
Said you won't fake it but lips don't lie
I followed you back where the monsters hide
[Refrain]
Boo bitch, I'm a ghost, said you'd always be mine but you choke on your words, so
Doomed, we're comatose, I'll never let go
[Bridge]
Don't blink, it's coming towards me crawling
We're stuck in the movies
(I'm medicated by those blue eyes) It's coming towards me crawling
We're stuck in the movies
[Chorus]
She said, she said, "I don't wanna hear you fuckin' scream"
It's perfect, your hiding place
Horror films don't hit like they used to, like they used to babe
Feeding on thrills she lets the door stay wide open
[Outro]
This just in, local man found dead in ex-girlfriend's basement
Authorities say he was found at the scene with his heart removed and placed inside an oven, presumably to be eaten
There's currently no sign of the girl or her accomplice, but authorities are on the lookout
Please call this number if you have any-
