Verse
Glossy, golden city, paparazzi paradise
But lately, you hug the T.V. waiting for this city to live up to the hype

Pre
Never in a million years could you picture tears falling here
Anyone would kill for the hills
(It’s) always greener when you’re looking in

Chorus
Why'd you come to LA if you knew it would break you while you’re looking away
Followed the sun to the States - you knew it would change you, now you’re forced to stay
Sinking deeper everyday
Why’d you come to LA if you knew it would turn the rest of your world gray

Vеrse
Guilty, everybody’s guilty, smiling in thе dead heat way too long
Too sweet, smoking on a pipe dream
Slipped through the concrete alone

Pre
Never in a million years could you picture tears falling here
Anyone would kill for the hills
(It’s) always greener when you’re looking in

Chorus
Why'd you come to LA if you knew it would break you while you’re looking away
Followed the sun to the States - you knew it would change you, now you’re forced to stay
Sinking deeper everyday
Why’d you come to LA if you knew it would turn the rest of your world gray
