by CJ Simpson (no AI)

In Lost Angeles
There’s always another story
In Lost Angeles
Cast in flames of glory

Stars above us shine
As beneath your feet
They looked high too
Now beneath they sleep

In Lost Angeles
They’re writing another story
In Lost Angeles
Drowning in waves of glory

Sunken streets
Where shadows dance
Chasing reflections
Of a second chance

In Lost Angeles
They climb another storey
In Lost Angeles
Scrape the sky for glory

Your future’s here
Where legends lie
As shooting stars
Fall from the sky

In Lost Angeles
They’re selling another story
In Lost Angeles
Quaking in its glory

People come
And people go
Chasing highs
In the depths below

In Lost Angeles
They’re stealing another story
In Lost Angeles
The sea will drown its glory

The road to fame
Finds sandy enclaves
They’re reaching new heights
But so are the waves…
