[Verse 1: Damian McGinty] Just the kid with his eyes wide open Came to town ‘cause they said I’m a star Big dreams and a brand new passport Couldn’t drive, didn’t even have a credit card Had a job that the crowd was chasing Working with a bunch of broken hearts Now this perfect life that I’m facing Is all coming apart [Pre-Chorus: Damian McGinty] It’s not that I don’t like the mountain tops Just can’t escape the bracing for the drop [Chorus: Damian McGinty & Cozi Zuehlsdorff] City of angels, you’re not what you seem Take our halos, and give us limousines And every time you pull me in Oh, I say to you, I say to you Surely I’ll be stronger now I won’t pray to you, I won't pray to you [Verse 2: Cozi Zuehlsdorff] Just a girl with her arms wide open And her face on a movie screen Came here with faith and believing Told me I was so green Through the joys and the tribulations I got one thing clear Found out the light I was searching for Wouldn’t find it here [Pre-Chorus: Cozi Zuehlsdorff] It’s not that I don’t like the mountain top It’s just not mine to climb, and I wanna stop [Chorus: Damian McGinty & Cozi Zuehlsdorff] City of angels, you’re not what you seem Take our halos, and give us limousines And every time you pull me in Oh, I say to you, I say to you Surely I’ll be stronger now I don’t pray to you, I won't pray to you [Chorus: Damian McGinty & Cozi Zuehlsdorff] City of angels, you’re not what you seem Take our halos, and give us limousines And every time you pull me in Oh, I say to you, I say to you Surely I’ll be stronger now I don’t pray to you, I won't pray to you [Outro: Damian McGinty & Cozi Zuehlsdorff] Just a dream like a kite on the skyline Let it go, let it float away Hope the wind blows part of me home and Make peace with the part that stays
