It's the drugs
Always get your way looking for diamond dust
Don't you know one day you'll say it's not enough?
If you can't pay your way he's gonna hurt you, love
Gonna call your bluff
You're so tough
Don't hold onto much but still can't give it up
Bet you wonder why you ever tried your luck
Promise you one day he's gonna come for us
So keep in touch
Looking for a better life
Living in the City of Angels
They know what it's really like

On the cusp
Looking for a better life
Living in the City of Angels
They know what it's really like
When the flame burns out, you'll need more fuel
Wanna sleep with the stars right?
Found a cheap way to keep you far from home
Run away and follow car lights
Wanna dance with the darkness all alone?
Wanna sleep with the stars right? (You're tied in, no surprises)
Found a cheap way to keep you far from home (The silence kept you guarded, needing guidance)
Run away and follow car lights (You're tied in, no surprises)
Wanna dance with the darkness all alone? (The silence kept you guarded, needing guidance)
You're tied in, no surprises
The silence kept you guarded, needing guidance
You're tied in, no surprises
The silence kept you guarded, needing guidance
