City of Angels Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There was truth
There was consequence, against you
A weak defense, then there's me
I'm 17, and looking for a fight
All my life
I was never there just a ghost, running scared
Here our dreams aren't made, they're won
[Chorus]
Lost in the city of angels
Down in the comfort of strangers
I found myself in the fire burned hills
In the land of a billion lights
[Verse 2]
Bought my fate
Straight from hell
Second sight has paid off well
For a mother, a brother and me
[Pre-Chorus]
The silver of a lake at night
The hills of Hollywood on fire
A boulevard of hope and dreams
Streets made of desire
[Chorus]
Lost in the city of angels
Down in the comfort of strangers
I found myself in the fire burned hills
In the land of a billion lights
I found myself in the fire burned hills
In the land of a billion lights
[Bridge]
(Angels)
(Angels)
I am home
Home
Home
Home
[Chorus]
Lost in the city of angels
Down in the comfort of strangers
I found myself in the fire burned hills
In the land of a billion lights
[Outro]
One life, one love, live
One life, one love, live
One life, one love, live
One life, one love
The city of angels (Angels, angels)
The city of angels (Angels, angels)
The city of angels
The city of angels

What did Thirty Seconds to Mars say about "City of Angels"?
Some of the early songs were — well, “City of Angels” is actually an older song and I could never really crack it. I knew there was something about it that I couldn’t forget. You know, I played on guitar — acoustic guitar —, it was kinda hooky in a way, you know, ballad-ass-skinned, trying to pawn....
Is there one correct interpretation of the song?
I think it’s great when people have different interpretations of the songs, it gives the song new life, new value and really, when I look at it, it’s not my business what anybody else thinks of my song. If they love it or hate it or if they interpret it one way or not, it’s really their song at that...
