I wrote this song in 2009 in a seedy hotel room on Sunset Strip in Hollywood the night after a show. I was angry as hell and sick and feverish with mono, and stayed up all night writing this.

lyrics

Broken buildings
Broken souls
Dreams forgotten
Ragged bones
I step into the shower
To wash the filth away
But ain't nothing can cleanse me
Of what I've seen today

You're lost, angel, goodbye

I'm drowning in my thoughts now
In this hotel room
Let's watch the city burning
We'll all get high from the fumes
The reason for your betrayal
I'll never understand
But you've abandoned your passions
You're just a slave to the man

You're lost, angel, goodbye

I produced this EP and played some basic tracks, and had a blast working on this. Great, energetic slab of dark alternative. No generic trendy stuff here, all killer, no filler! James Perry
