As I walk through the valley<br />of the shadow of LA<br />The footsteps that were next to me<br />have gone their separate ways<br />I've seen enough now<br />to know that beautiful things<br />don't always stay that way<br />I've done enough now<br />to know this beautiful place<br />isn't everything they say<br /><br />I heard that evil comes disguised<br />Like a city of angels<br />I'm walking towards the light<br /><br />Baptized in the river<br />I've seen a vision of my life<br />And I wanna be delivered<br />In the city was a sinner<br />I've done a lot of things wrong<br />But I swear I'm a believer<br />Like the prodigal son<br />I was out on my own<br />Now I'm trying to find my way back home<br />Baptized in the river<br />I'm delivered<br />I'm delivered<br /><br />(M. Shadows)<br />You're from a small town<br />you're gonna grow up fast<br />underneath these lights<br />Down in Hollywood on the boulevard<br />the dead come back to life<br />To the praying Mother<br />The worried Father<br /><br />Let your children go<br />If they come back they'll come home stronger<br />and if they don't you'll know<br /><br />They sing that evil comes disguised<br />Like a city of angels<br />I'm walking towards the light<br /><br />Baptized in the river<br />I've seen a vision of my life<br />And I wanna be delivered<br />In the city was a sinner<br />I've done a lot of things wrong<br />But I swear I'm a believer<br />Like the prodigal son<br />I was out on my own<br />Now I'm trying to find my way back home<br />Baptized in the river<br />I'm delivered<br />I'm delivered<br /><br />Baptized in the river (on my own)<br />Baptized in the river (on my own)<br />I wanna be delivered<br />(on my own)<br />(on my own)<br />Baptized in the river (on my own)<br />I wanna be delivered<br />Baptized in the river (on my own)<br />I wanna be delivered<br />Baptized in the river (on my own)<br />I wanna be delivered<br /><br />I confess I'm a sinner<br />I've seen a vision of my life<br />And I wanna be delivered
