The Distillers - City Of Angels lyrics

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 6am 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 It's a ghost town, rabid underworld Dionysian night, vitriolic twilight A mirage comes up, it never ends Once you get burnt 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 hookered sunset strip There's a black moon tonight Ain't shining down on the western neon lights They say this is the city The city of angels All I see is nothing
