City of Angels
Just a kid with his eyes wide open
Came to town 'cause they said I'm a star
Big dreams and a brand new passport
Couldn't drive, didn't even have a credit card
Had a job that the crowd was chasing
Working with a bunch of broken hearts
Now this perfect life that I'm facing
Is all coming apart
It's not that I don't like the mountain tops
Just can't escape the bracing for the drop
City of angels
You're not what you seem
Take our halos, and give us limousines
And every time you pull me in all I say to you I say to you
Surely I'll be stronger now,
I don't pray to you I won't pray to you
Just a girl with her arms wide open
And her face on a movie screen
Came here with faith and believing
And they told me I was so green
Through the joys and the tribulations
I got one thing clear
Found out the light I was searching for
I wouldn't find it here
It's not that I don't like the mountain tops
It's just not mine to climb and I wanna stop
City of angels
You're not what you seem
Take our halos, and give us limousines
And every time you pull me in all I say to you I say to you
Surely I'll be stronger now,
I don't pray to you I won't pray to you
City of angels
You're not what you seem
Take our halos, and give us limousines
And every time you pull me in all I say to you I say to you
Surely I'll be stronger now,
I don't pray to you I won't pray to you
Just a dream like a kite on the skyline
Let it go let it float away
Hope the wind blows part of me home and
Make peace with the part that stays
Came to town 'cause they said I'm a star
Big dreams and a brand new passport
Couldn't drive, didn't even have a credit card
Had a job that the crowd was chasing
Working with a bunch of broken hearts
Now this perfect life that I'm facing
Is all coming apart
It's not that I don't like the mountain tops
Just can't escape the bracing for the drop
City of angels
You're not what you seem
Take our halos, and give us limousines
And every time you pull me in all I say to you I say to you
Surely I'll be stronger now,
I don't pray to you I won't pray to you
Just a girl with her arms wide open
And her face on a movie screen
Came here with faith and believing
And they told me I was so green
Through the joys and the tribulations
I got one thing clear
Found out the light I was searching for
I wouldn't find it here
It's not that I don't like the mountain tops
It's just not mine to climb and I wanna stop
City of angels
You're not what you seem
Take our halos, and give us limousines
And every time you pull me in all I say to you I say to you
Surely I'll be stronger now,
I don't pray to you I won't pray to you
City of angels
You're not what you seem
Take our halos, and give us limousines
And every time you pull me in all I say to you I say to you
Surely I'll be stronger now,
I don't pray to you I won't pray to you
Just a dream like a kite on the skyline
Let it go let it float away
Hope the wind blows part of me home and
Make peace with the part that stays
