Fire Escape lyrics

I like to stick to walls

Observing conversations, lifting them when they fall

I am a fire escape, my spine is made of iron

My heart pumps that old red paint

Save yourself, save yourself, yourself

Save yourself, save yourself

I see the seasons change

All the young faces come and replace the dying ones

Sit out on Lexington and Vine

All the pimps and prostitutes wave you down at stopping signs

Save yourself, save yourself, yourself

Save yourself, save yourself

Los Angeles, I've been waiting for you

To pick yourself up and change

The city you've made, this ocean and sand

Is founded on liars and self-made men

I've watched the dreamers find their legs

And I've seen the ones that come get reduced to bones and rags

I am a fire escape, my spine is made of iron

My heart pumps that old red paint

Save yourself, save yourself

Save yourself, save yourself
