Stand Your Ground |
Hold your head up high, |
Cuz tomorrow you may die, |
Cuz no one’s safe around here, |
No one’s safe around here. |
Stand your ground, |
Til you’re the last one in town. |
Someone that you trust turned out to be a tricker, |
Smoking cigarettes, getting stoned on liquor, |
Getting really dizzy, only getting sicker, |
Small problems now only seem bigger. |
America’s a safe place, |
If you’re gonna leave it, |
And the rhetoric is there, |
If you’re gonna read it, |
And the hollow masses, |
The machines defeated, |
And the rich look down to arrive on the bleeding. |
Hold your head up high, |
Cuz tomorrow you may die, |
Cuz no one’s safe around here, |
No one’s safe around here. |
Stand your ground, |
Til you’re the last one in town. |
Hardly enough, |
It gets tough when you’re running, |
So you bust out the homeless, |
When they start coming, |
In LA, Broadway, it’s wicked when they’re watching, |
And your backup and your backup and your backup ain’t working. |
There’s no food, so you’re spurred into action, |
Set up and go to no satisfaction, |
Ice and snow is the city passion, |
When you walk in the shadows, girl, there’s no protection. |
Hold your head up high, |
Cuz tomorrow you may die, |
Cuz there’s no one safe around here, |
No one’s safe around here. |
Stand your ground, |
Til you’re the last one in town. |
OK, well, |
This is the city of Los Angeles, |
And it never sleeps, |
It may look like it, |
But it doesn’t. |
It lives and breathes nocturnally, |
So when you’ve got no place to sleep at night, |
And you’re all huddled up, |
And you’re cold, |
Well, this song goes out to the city’s forgotten. |
Hey, Tim, take us on home… |
Underlying reason, well she can’t keep it going, |
In the middle of the night, |
they found her frozen, |
And the Wal-Mart sign, |
Keeps on glowing, |
And the winds of change keep on blowing. |
Hold your head up high, |
Cuz tomorrow you may die, |
Cuz no one’s safe around here, |
No one’s safe around here. |
Stand your ground, |
Til you’re the last one in town. |
