Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I like to stick to walls
Observing conversations and lifting them when they fall
I am a fire escape, my spine's made of iron
My heart pumps that old red paint
[Verse 2]
Save yourself, save yourself, yourself
Save yourself, save yourself
[Verse 3]
I see the season change
And all the young faces come and replace the dying ones
Sit out on Lexington and Vine
And all the pimps and prostitutes wave you down at stopping signs
[Verse 4]
Save yourself, save yourself, yourself
Save yourself, save yourself
[Verse 5]
Los Angeles, I've been waiting for you
To pick yourself up and change
The city you've made this ocean and sand
It's founded on liars and self made men
[Verse 6]
I've watched the dreamers find their legs
And I've seen the ones that come get reduced to bones and rags
'Cause I am a fire escape, my spine's made of iron
My heart pumps that old red paint
[Verse 7]
Save yourself, save yourself
Save yourself, save yourself
