At the end of the world,i suddenly feel alive
there's nothing in the world like a southern california night
i always hoped that someday, everything would be all right
and now someday has arrived tonight
We're speeding through the city tonight
we'll hit this town just like a bomb
for this one moment, the world is ours
and still we're waiting, for the atomic fire
Black palm trees sway, they whisper to the purple sky
close your eyes and feel the ghosts of hollywood gone by
still the dreamers come, still the dreams are left to die
behind the lights a necropolis dies
