Hold your head up high
'Cause tomorrow you may die
'Cause there's no one safe around here
No one's safe around here
Stand your ground
Till you're the last one in town
Yeah, someone that you trust turned out to be a tricker
Smoking cigarettes, getting stoned on liquor
Getting really dizzy, only getting sicker
Small problem now only seem bigger
America's a safe place if you're gonna leave it
And the rhetoric is there if you're gonna read it
And the huddled masses the machine defeated
And the rich look down to the rabble to bleed it
Hold your head up high
'Cause tomorrow you may die
'Cause there's no one safe around here
No one's safe around here
Stand your ground
Till you're the last one in town
Oddly enough, it gets tough when you're running
So you brush off the homeless when they start coming
In LA, Broadway, it's wicked when they're watching
And your backup, man, your backup, man, your backup ain't working
There's no food, so you're spurred into action
Set up and go to no satisfaction
Ice and snow is the city's fashion
When you walk in the shadows, girl, there's no protection
Hold your head up high
'Cause tomorrow you may die
'Cause there's no one safe around here
No one's safe around here
Stand your ground
Till you're the last one in town
OK, well
This is the city of Los Angeles
And it never sleeps
It may look like it
But it doesn't
It lives and breathes nocturnally
So when you've got no place to sleep at night
And you're all huddled up
And you're cold
Well, this song goes out to the city's forgotten
Hey, Tim, take us on home
Underlying reason, well she can't keep it going
In the middle of the night they found her frozen
And the Walmart sign keeps on glowing
And the winds of change keep on blowing
Hold your head up high
'Cause tomorrow you may die
'Cause there's no one safe around here
No one's safe around here
Stand your ground
Till you're the last one in town
