My friend and I
Climbed the narrow pass
To the place where the rocks
Flooded out from the mountain
The city looked flat
Flatter than a board
And I said I am excited
To move
I drank coffee
From a paper cup
And we shifted on the rocks
To avoid the broken glass
I said I'm doing exactly the same thing
As I was doing when I was twenty-three
And that 2005 was darker than the night
So sun come shine a light on the city of angels
Just then the breeze
Lifted up my hair
I said lets get out of here
There's too much to do
[Outro]
But the moment remains
Up on the mountain
It's perched and eye [?]
Oh I were its prey
