City of stars that hide
through the night
Pity the dogs left out
in the moonlight
Talk about God and
the weather is fine just fine
The taste of ambition is
bitter and sweet
It sings in a dream
and then sleeps on a street
It's there in the eyes of the
people you meet all the time
all the time
This is the place where all of
the fallen and the forsaken
never move on
You've lost the race if you're
feet fail you
in the city of angels
Wings don't grow on palm trees
or lost souls
The city of songs that burn
holes in your heart
Pity the ones that don't know
where to start out
They walk without hope as the
ocean rolls by my eyes
Lies on the tongues and the
mouths of the men
Who deny us the chance to live
as we planned
Freedom feels good if only
freedom were mine all mine
This is the place where all of
the fallen and the forsaken
never move on
You've lost the race if you're
feet fail you
in the city of angels
Wings don't grow on palm trees
or lost souls
There's no in between here
You either whisper or scream here
And if you say you feel
at home you know
You're missing somewhere else
This is the place where all of
the fallen and the forsaken
never move on
You've lost the race if you're
feet fail you
in the city of angels
Wings don't grow
This is the place where all of
the fallen and the forsaken
never move on
You've lost the race if you're
feet fail you
in the city of angels
Wings don't grow on palm trees
or lost souls
On palm trees or lost souls
