ANGEL CITY OUTCASTS LYRICS

"Horns N Halos"

I was stranded on the highway
I was out of gas and broke
And I left that Cadillac back in a cloud of smoke
This time I got no alibis, no place to run and hide
So I looked around to find myself a ride

I was on my way to Monterrey where I'd be running free but,
Somebody dropped a dime, they were looking there for me
So I kicked about and walked around for another mile or so
When darkness had descended on the road

With a wind that sent a chill right down my spine
Off the road I saw a glowing sign
In this sea of darkness I was paralyzed by fear
That's when the wind whispered in my ear

"All Hell is right behind your back"
So long, farewell, you're never coming back
Horns and Halos - a Roadside bordello
I leave it all behind, but to me it's all the same

Leave your troubles at the door by the alley
Come inside and have a drink
Not a soul was round in this pitch black valley
Something just lured me in
In a smokey haze I took a step inside
A red room like a bleeding heart
The barkeep poured me a stiff drink to go
He says "This one's on me
But there's something you oughta know"

"All Hell is right behind your back"
So long, farewell, you're never coming back
Horns and Halos - a Roadside bordello
I leave it all behind, but to me it's all the same

And so I still remain here
I never tried to run
Some say I belong here
Cause all the things I've done
I never sought redemption
I overwhelmed by vengeance
Now I'm sitting in this room
Mourning everything I lost

Cryin' on my left, screaming to my right
How did I end up here?
Crimson all around, lava in a mug
Instead of a pint of beer
The man in red aid I was dead
I never made it past the cops
"No worries man, I'll help you hide
And by the way, welcome to the other side"
