Wasteland

Now I'm sitting on a plane
Lonely flight back to L.A.
Don't come back with me
So I'll drink myself to sleep
Cut my skin until I bleed
Hold my breath all the night
Cause it's 5 o'clock
The hour stops the sunlight
And the buildings shade the masquerade and kill time
Hear the sound
She was naked on the ground
Till I whispered in her ear
Come away, watch the dawn break through the day
Till the sun is underneath
Cause it's 5 o'clock
The hour stops the sunlight
And the buildings shade the masquerade and kill time
Here we're nothing more than fools and whores and sad highs
Through the summer sand, we're living in
We're living in a wasteland
It's a wasteland
It's a wasteland
It's a wasteland for me
And we're nothing more than fools and whores and sad highs
Through the summer sand, we're living in
We're living in a wasteland
Here we're nothing more than fools and whores and sad highs
Through the summer sand, we're living in
We're living in a wasteland
It's a wasteland
It's a wasteland
It's a wasteland for me
For me
