Lost Angeles

I could use somewhere different
Another timezone, somewhere blue
'Cause all I see is through your eyes now
This town is set in stone in
Picture frames that came from you
Maybe if I take a plane
I'll escape the ache you left
Another ground maybe will
Settle my foundations
Reattach my bones and capture my breath

I'll get lost in Los Angeles, taking my time
Walking right past the street lights
Will they show a sign that
I'm falling to mend
Not just falling behind again
I'll get lost in Los Angeles no one awake
Tracing gaps in the pavement
My heart starts to ache
'Cause there's just no escaping
I'm lost everywhere down to you
So, Lost Angeles, I guess you will do
Every footpath is too winding
Every hill is far too tall
And I'm just so tired of running
Tired of searching
Just want somewhere your name ain't
Carved in every wall

I'll get lost in Los Angeles, taking my time
Walking right past the street lights
Will they show a sign that
I'm falling to mend
Not just falling behind again
I'll just walk through Los Angeles
The sky turning gold
The city reflecting the ache that I hold
Every step that I take without you
Leads me further from home
So, Lost Angeles, I'm hoping you're strong

Maybe I could grow wings
Get a new sense of space
Maybe by tomorrow I'll be long gone
Just a little pink suitcase
And maybe I'll find somewhere
Where once again I might belong
And not feel so ship wrecked
So utterly tossed out on my own
Not see hearts
Wonder if they're as scarred as my own
Not see places untouched on a map and think
Maybe this time, this one I'll call home
Oh, I just want to find
Somewhere solid to land
If I jump on a plane
Will your heart leave my hand?
Don't come to Lost Angeles
I'm begging of you don't be selfish
I need someplace I could start new
And not see you in every light, every stone
Every face let me lose in Lost Angeles
The beauty we made leave it buried in soil
And cold English rain
And maybe a day where I won't
Think about you will fall
And I won't be so lost anymore
