Life Beyond L.A.

Sometimes I think about the only way

That I'll ever see life beyond L.A. is dyin'

I sit in the corner of a hotel room

With a room service menu and I'm lookin' at the moon, I'm cryin'

I'm out here waitin', prayin'

Tryna keep from sayin' that I don't miss you

Though I do

Ooh, you got me shakin', prayin'

Tryna keep from sayin' that I don't miss you

Though I do

Hmm, you know I do

Livin' out here, you soon come to know

That it ain't how good you are as much as who you know

And how you fake it

Workin' this dive, it's a matter of time

'Cause I'm a good lead player, got a way with a line

And I can make it

When the day breaks dawn

Somethin' is in my room

When all my faith is gone

Somethin' begets my gloom

I'm out here waitin', prayin'

Tryna keep from sayin' that I don't miss you

Though I do

You got me shakin', prayin'

Tryna keep from sayin' that I don't miss you

Though I do

You know I do

When the day breaks dawn

Somethin' is in my room

Yeah, when all my faith is gone

Somethin' begets my gloom

Out here waitin', prayin'

Tryna keep from sayin' that I don't miss you

Though I do

You got me shakin', playin'

Tryna keep from sayin' I don't miss you

Though I do

Well, you know I do

Yes, I do

Sometimes I think about the only time

That I'll ever be happy in my own mind is dyin'
