2am, wasteland
Talking to a lost man
Jingling his cup
He said
'lady keep your head up'
Told me about his plan
'said "it
harder than it seems"
'said "this city leaves you stranded
with a pocket full of dreams"
She's a one dance
romance
Knock you out with one glance
Slow kill, cheap
thrill
Overdose and refill
But don't you worry honey
it'll alllwork out alright
Just thank your lucky stars
you're in Los Angeles tonight.
Chorus
California is a
summer in the winter of your life
And LA is a lover
that'll make you leave your wife
She'll kiss you like a
virgin then she'll slice you like a knife
The city made of
angelsis a desert dressed in lights
Alright
Darkness throws
it's cloak down
Sunset is a ghost town
It's almost been a
year, and I've forgotten how I got here
Five fake friends
in a black Mercedes Benz
And I'm feeling so alone with
them I can't even pretend
I tell white lies to nice
guys
Right into their bright eyes
Gorgeous on the outside
and hollow on the inside
But something's trying to shake
me
And it makes me wanna stop
'Cause I just drove past an
angel
Shakin' quarters in a cup
…Then I hear in my
head…
Chorus
Tell me why do you move so
fast?
And where did you hide your past?
Tell me what does
your true worth cost?
And how did you get so lost?
Baby I
know it's night outside
But don't let your daydreams die
