Outskirts |
Here on the outskirts of life |
Dreams seldom come true |
Flippin' thru photographs emotional holographs |
Cutouts of all the figures you might’ve been |
Reflections of a life that you once lived |
As the evening descends |
Your conscious of every breath |
And every moment is a crisis, I guess |
Starin' out the windows of your hotel room |
You lit one too many fires underneath that spoon |
Well I guess you deserve the chosen few |
Real life, just out of view |
Well that’s just here |
On the outskirts |
Yea, that’s here |
On the outskirts of your life |
And there’s a picture we’ve all seen |
It was taken in the lobby of the L.A. Ambassador Hotel |
It’s the silhouette of a man in another’s arms |
So turn off your TVs, and let that train go home |
'Cause everyone warned you that California |
Wasn’t goin' to be the end |
California wasn’t gonna be the end |
And tell me where can you hide when |
The whole world is ugly and strange |
Yea tell me where you gonna turn when |
This whole world knows your name |
And these four walls are screamin' |
And all your friends were so deceiving |
Yea you forgot the lines of a part you rehearsed so well |
Lyin' awake in the Brazilian Court Hotel |
But that’s just here |
On the outskirts |
Yea, that’s here |
On the outskirts |
Of your life |
