LA

So we drove through LA until eight in the morning and ended up at my house,

passed out on the couch.

Yeah,

we spent every night in the city,

we spent every morning in my bed and you wish you could forget,

yeah,

you wish we never met now that the metaphors peeled off like a lover's wet clothes.

The cold has soaked you to your bones so now you shake when you're alone.

And I was so damn scared that you would prove me wrong and you were so afraid that I was right,

you proved me wrong every night.

So dance it off,

warm your blood,

yeah,

they can look,

they can touch.

You can be anything they want.

You can be anything they want when the clubs let out and you are safe,

but the stars are wide awake.

They saw every move you made,

yeah,

I know every move you made.

And we heard gunshots down the street and you stumbled to your feet like you expected me to let you go.

The city lights were at war with the sky,

the kids were running for their lives.

I never thought we'd make it through the night,

yeah,

but you said you weren't afraid to die,

but you kept waiting for your rearview to paint your face with reds and blues.

Oh,

you got away with something,

didn't you,

didn't you?

Yeah,

you kept waiting for your rearview to paint your face with reds and blues.

Oh,

you got away with something,

didn't you,

didn't you?

Didn't you?

So dance it off,

warm your blood,

yeah,

they can look,

they can touch.

You can be anything they want.

You can be anything they want when the lights go out and you are safe,

but the stars are wide awake.

They saw every move you made,

yeah,

I know every move you made.

Yeah,

I know every move you made.

Oh,

and I should've let you go.

And I should've let you go.
