Backward Looking Swan

So many drugs in L. A
Backward-looking swan

Veins of my eyes are branches of the Sun
Crossed at the gate for lack of Christian faith
Hell is a journey in the front seat
Where heaven extends your feet
Backward-looking swan!
Crossed at the gate for lack of Christian faith
Backward-looking swan
Where the doors are short and fat
It takes a lawyer to build a temple and a banker to watch it burn
Backward-looking swan!

Backward-looking swan
Where water is the measure of time and bombs the measure of love
We ruin our reputation, the one we never had
Backward-looking swan!

So many drugs in L.A. man
Where the doors are short and fat
It takes a lawyer to build a temple and a banker to watch it burn
Where water is the measure of time and bombs the measure of love
We ruin our reputation, the one we never had
Backward looking swan!

So many drugs in L. A
Veins of my eyes are branches of the Sun
Backward looking swan!
