about

'Los Angeles' is the third single to be taken from The Lonely Together's second album, 'Endless Sunset Oblivion'.

lyrics

After passing out in Tennessee
I wake up in Los Angeles
Look Ma, I’m finally free
No-one holding on to me
See, you and me
We’re friends of the night
Closing bar after bar
Until morning light
We’ve seen things you’ll never see
Far less even believe

Do you ever sometimes wish you could
Go back to when your life was good
Instead of doing all the other things you should…?

We were always meant to be together
You stole my heart in Bronson Canyon
I didn’t think that life could ever get better
When we were Bulleit-proof in the Frolic Room
I swear this boulevard goes on forever…
Laid out in stars, my journey here was everclear
Oh, Los Angeles

Imagine living up in the hills
Solving all your problems with pills
Living a life of abandon
Fast cars, cheap thrills
I’m the closest that I’ll ever be
Sitting in Boardner’s on North Cherokee
Tarot cards on the floor
Last call, “Two more…”

This isn’t what I came here to see
But there’s no place that I’d rather be
When the Chateau Marmont piano sounds so sweet…

[Chorus]

Everybody’s trying to get clean
Passing round the 714s
In a Studio City motel room
Wondering what it all means

Do you ever sometimes wish you could
Go back to when your life was good
Instead of paying to play West Hollywood…?

This isn’t what I came here to see
But there’s no place that I’d rather be
Sunset drunk, look what you’ve done to me…
Oh, Los Angeles
