City of Lost Angeles

Remember the first time you saw the hills reach toward the sky? You said you'd give your soul to fly just as high Everyone around here has got the same dream You should know this city is not what it seems I can see it in your eyes You want to be out every night Old enough to fall in love, too young to drink Turns out that you're the weakest link Just getting a taste of what it means to be free Don't blindly believe everything you see It's a heavenly illusion and I know you're only human But I'm telling you: let it go 'Cause baby, I've been watching you And you still don't have a clue You're trapped in the city of lost angels I saw you stopped at the crossroads And I could see the light dimming from your halo They might have made you their queen But this isn't the kingdom of your dreams
