Lyrics The Distillers

The Distillers

City of Angels

Its going down tonight in this town

Cause they stare and growl

They all stare and growl

I take a scar everytime i cry

Cause it aint my style no it aint 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 Cliftons 6 am

With your bag lady friend and your mind descending

Stripped of the right to be a human in control

Its warmer in hell so down we go

They say this is the city

The city of ngels

All i see is dead wings (2x)

Its a ghost town rabid underworld

Dionysian night vitriolic twilight

A mirage comes up it never ends

Once you get burnt youre never the same

Left behind erased from time

Aint no decency in being boxed up alive

Look around aint no R.I.P. signs here

We dont 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

They say this is the city

The city of ngels

All i see is dead wings (2x)

Theres a black moon tonight

Aint shining down on the western neon lights (2x)

They say this is the city

The city of ngels

All i see is dead wings
