It's going down tonight in this town 'Cause they stare and growl They all stare and growl I take a scar every time I cry 'Cause it ain't my style, no it ain't my style Going down to the gravel head to the barrel Take this life and end this struggle Los Angeles come scam me please Emptiness never sleeps at Clifton's 6 a.m. With your bag lady friend and your mind descending Stripped of the right to be a human in control It's warmer in hell so down we go They say this is the city The city of angels All I see is dead wings They say this is the city The city of angels All I see is dead wings It's a ghost town rabid underworld Dionysian night vitriolic twilight A mirage comes up it never ends Once you get born you're never the same Left behind erased from time Ain't no decency in being boxed up alive Look around ain't no R.I.P. signs here We don't rest in peace, we just disappear So here we are Los Angeles No angels singing in your valley of unease I watch the sun roll down the pacific Over hooker sunset strip They say this is the city The city of angels All I see is dead wings They say this is the city The city of angels All I see is dead wings There's a black moon tonight Shining down on the western neon lights There's a black moon tonight Shining down on the western neon lights They say this is the city The city of angels All I see is dead wings They say this is the city The city of angels All I see is dead wings They say this is the city The city of angels All I see is dead wings They say this is the city The city of angels All I see is dead wings
