I don’t think I’m gonna go to L.A. anymore. The city streets have had their fun Abusing my feet when I tried to run No longer will you hold me down I’m free and flying from this town Though some things will always be left unsaid And the letters I wrote in love, unread Hearing your pain confirms what I know: Any hope of a fix, I must forgo The ten and the two may be a lonely sight But racing to your door tonight Would be struggling against the safest gray I'll stay away. I'll stay away. You had my heart and you’ve kept a piece But this pain, I know, will someday cease Today I’m praying for that release And murmuring soliloquies of perfect peace

***** L.A. (In response to John Mayer's song "In Your Atmosphere")
I don’t think I’m gonna go to L.A. anymore. The city streets have had their fun Abusing my feet when I tried to run No longer will you hold me down I’m free and flying from this town Though some things will always be left unsaid And the letters I wrote in love, unread Hearing your pain confirms what I know: Any hope of a fix, I must forgo The ten and the two may be a lonely sight But racing to your door tonight Would be struggling against the safest gray I'll stay away. I'll stay away. You had my heart and you’ve kept a piece But this pain, I know, will someday cease Today I’m praying for that release And murmuring soliloquies of perfect peace
