fallen angel ripped and bruised think on better days
life is rude treats you bad tears your wings away
raise your eyes to star and sky believe in fly aways
take your dreams your broken schemes and sweep the past away
fly lonely angel high above these streets of fire
fly lonely angel far away from mad desire
hollywood ain't paved with gold it's just a trick of light
sunset falls on stars of old and blinds you with its light
a spider's web of tangled lives lays stretched across the hills
from distances it's glistening like el dorado's halls
fly lonely angel high above these streets of fire
fly lonely angel leave behind the mad desire
the dream was light and fragrant nights but how were you to know?
the streets are hard they're mean and scared where only fools find gold
fly lonely angel high above these streets of fire
fly lonely angel leave behind the mad desire
fly lonely angel spread your wings another way
fly lonely angel find a better way a better day
