Knocking at the Sky

Standing on the windowsill
Walking in your sleep
On the streets sirens sang
For you to take the leap
Thought that you were Icarus
Or at least that you were Greek
To the people down below
You're just another freak
I would give my eyes away just to be the light
I'd burn off my fingerprints start a brand new life
I would trade my innocence choke up on my pride
You can find me every night knocking at the sky
Singing la-la-la la
Singing la-la-la la
Singing la-la-la la
Singing la-la-la la
Women wept when you were gone
Lay naked on the shore
A hero's death in chiffon trenches
Who could ask for more?
And you would seek the mountains
Or the moon where snow is born
To gaze upon the hydra
And Athena in softcore
I would give my eyes away just to be the light
I'd burn off my fingerprints start a brand new life
I would trade my innocence choke up on my pride
You can find me every night knocking at the sky
Singing la-la-la la
Singing la-la-la la
Singing la-la-la la
Singing la-la-la la
Honey there's a seven-car pile-up
On the highway to my heart
And if I give you the green light
You promise you'll never come back?
You promise?
Oh I rue the day I ever left this place
I gave my headshots in to Trashy's Lingerie
I want my MTV my grass and my valet
It never rains on me oh God I love LA
La-la-la-la la-la
La-la-la-la la-la
La-la-la-la la-la
La-la-la-la la-la
La-la-la-la la-la
La-la-la-la la-la
La-la
La-la
La-la
