Lyrics
Useless in L.A.
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
it was me
that hung on every syllable you said
and it was me
that threw a fully loaded book straight at your head
but you gotta hold on
to the things you love
and ignore what they feed
yeah, ya gotta hold on
cause no one's quite the sum
of all their deeds
and it's useless in l.a.
no one's been forgiven yet
and if i knew what to say
then i'd say it
and you'd somehow forget
it was me
that warned you 'bout the point of no return
and it was me
that stared in fascination while you burned
but you gotta hold on
to the things you love
and ignore what they feed
yeah, ya gotta hold on
cause no one's quite the sum
of all their deeds
and it's useless in l.a.
no one's been forgiven yet
and if i knew what to say
then i'd say it
and you'd somehow forget
and if i knew what to say
then i'd say it
and you'd somehow forget
but you gotta hold on
don't let your head get damaged by this scene
yeah, ya gotta hold on
cause no one's quite the sum of all their deeds
and it's useless in l.a.
no one's been forgiven yet
and if i knew what to say then i'd say it
and you'd somehow forget
the difference between what i do
and what i mean
and if i knew what to say
then i'd say it
and we could get away clean
we could get away clean
we could get away clean
