Now I'm sitting on a plane
Lonely flight back to L.A.
Don't come back with me
So I'll drink myself to sleep
Cut my skin until I bleed
Hold my breath all the night

'Cause it's 5 o'clock and the hour stops the sunlight
And the buildings shade the masquerade and kill the time

Hear the sound
She was naked on the ground
'Til I whispered in her ear
Come away
Watch the dawn break through the day
'Til the sun is underneath

Just 5 o'clock, the hour stops the sunlight
And the buildings shade the masquerade and kill the time
Here we're nothing more than fools and whores and sad highs
Through the summer sand, we're living in, we're living in a wasteland

It's a wasteland 
It's a wasteland 
It's a wasteland for me

Here we're nothing more than fools and whores and sad highs
Through the summer sand, we're living in, we're living in a wasteland
Here we're nothing more than fools and whores and sad highs
Through the summer sand, we're living in, we're living in a wasteland

It's a wasteland 
It's a wasteland 
It's a wasteland for me, for me
