Less Than Zero
It's a dog eat dog, piranhas eat sharks
Might as well quit before you even start
They say it 'til you know where these dreams are sold
? by bank rolls backed by fools gold
Masses end West to Los Angeles
? best back in their little nest
Somewhere, nowhere, but not from here
Once they arrive, ambition meets with fear
Insecurities change smiles?
The only constant is "No", struggles, and?
It's a long road to the top of nothing
No morals, no friends, just a love for something
Never to be attained it drains the soul dry
Under a bridge downtown the soul cry
Feeling like the city is all you really have
But when you take a look back, that's really sad
In L.A. things don't always work out quite like they should
(?) (seems like?) (? is no joke)
In L.A. things don't always work out quite like they should
(?) (? is no joke) (see more ups and downs than speedboats)
