Angelenos Lyrics

You know I hardly ever come here

Cause it's a place I don't feel at home

They say long ago she lost the dream

When her keepers here let it go

I heard many things about her

Before I laid my eyes on her skin

When I first beheld this withered angel

I yearned for what she had been

Chorus:

Oh hey Los Angelenos

I saw your lights from on the hill

Spread out below a diamond blanket

I saw your breast rising still

I never knew you held this vision

Pulsing alive and full of rhyme

I couldn't see the hidden meaning

I guess I was wrong about your dying

Oh I was wrong about your dying

Oh L.A.

It's so easy to be swallowed

In these streets that call out for rain

Let a storm come on uproot us from here

And plant us all once again

Oh her spirits heard me singing

She lead me up the hill in the dark

She unblinded me where I could see

That the angel still has heart

Chorus

They're like butterflies your healers

And they fill your skies at night

We can listen if we will

Bring us all alive

World arise and fly
