LA is Lonely
Can somebody point me in the right direction?
I seem to be losing my way
I'm finding it hard to keep eyes on the stars
When I hit a new low every day

Oh, but they don't know
I quit twice a day
Can't go back home
Everyone's watching and they hope
I can be someone they say they know

Nobody tells you
When you go chasing your dreams
That it's much harder than it seems
On the screens
Or fake magazines on the shelf
You're only left with yourself
Nobody's here to make friends
You're killing yourself to make ends meet
I'm tired and all that I've seen is
LA is lonely

I've tried and I tried to keep an open mind
But the hands on the clock never stop
The older I am oh the quicker the sand in
The old hourglass seems to drop

Oh, but they don't see
I quit twice a day
But I can't leave
Everyone's home counting on me
To be who they want me to be

But nobody tells you
When you go chasing your dreams
That it's much harder than it seems
On the screens
Or fake magazines on the shelf
You're only left with yourself
Nobody's here to make friends
You're killing yourself to make ends meet
I'm tired and all that I've seen is
LA is lonely

But nobody tells you
When you go chasing your dreams
That it's much harder than it seems
On the screens
Or fake magazines on the shelf
You're only left with yourself
Nobody's here to make friends
You're killing yourself to make ends meet
I'm tired and all that I've seen is
LA is lonely

Ohh
Ohh

I'm tired and all that I've seen is
LA is lonely
