Rancid - Backslide lyrics

Los Angeles take your dreams away
Put you on the ground
At the end of the day it's your life
Your loss if you can't turn the clock around

I said, oh, my God
You can have her for that one
So you better not miss a shot
You're letting yourself get into
All kinds of danger
Soon enough, you're gonna get caught

They had a feeling
It was like you had to prove
You're one in a million
And on top of that junkies are dealing
This time the drugs are you
And they'll come through
It ain't gonna stop 'til they
Get what they want

And I said nobody knows me, I'm all alone
I, I, I, I, I, I, I gotta go
It's a Hollywood bus stop
And the party's over
I, I, I, I, I, I, I gotta go

John was havin' his homeboy down
So he waited for a ride
Then waited to confide in
Hollywood's constant backslide
With affordable lives and a sunroof
Nestled among the filth
Frequencies and bad intentions, gotta take
It for what it's worth, but I say

They had a feeling
It was like you had to prove
You're one in a million
And on top of that junkies still dealing
This time the drugs are you
And they'll come through
It ain't gonna stop 'til they
Get what they want

And I said nobody knows me, I'm all alone
I, I, I, I, I, I, I gotta go
It's a Hollywood bus stop
And the party's over
I, I, I, I, I, I, I gotta go

Have you ever been haunted by your past?
And it will never let you go
Will never ever, ever let you go
No, I said, they'll never ever
Ever let you go

Nobody knows me, I'm all alone
I, I, I, I, I, I, I gotta go
It's a Hollywood bus stop
And the party's over
I, I, I, I, I, I, I gotta go
