[Intro]
Alright, this song's about Laurel Canyon and ghosts
And if somebody gives you perfume, don't drink it

[Verse 1]
Don't fall in love with the man on stage
I'll be on in a minute, I'm just sharpening my blade
Don't fall for his flattering tunes
He'll promise you the world until you drink that perfume

[Chorus]
It's a highway, highway to the dark
And a neon Medusa's got your heart
Sweet canyon lullabies
Don't look straight into its eyes
It's a highway, highway to the dark

[Verse 2]
There's only two ways to make it in this town
One is to be brilliant, the other is to drown
Don't take both drugs all in one go
You can't touch heaven passed out on the floor

[Chorus]
It's a highway, highway to the dark
And a neon Medusa's got your heart
Sweet canyon lullabies
Don't look straight into its eyes
It's a highway, highway to the dark
[Bridge]
If your mama could see you now
If your mama could see you now
Topless, upside-down
The room spinnin' around
If your mama could see you now
With the party lines comin' out
Are we lost, are we found?
Are there too many mirrors in this house?

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
Don't fall in love with the man on stage
I'll be on in a minute, then I'll sweep you away
Don't fall for the monsters in this maze
But I could love you forever if you'd meet my gaze
