I call this my "LA" song....it can be a lonely city.... it had just rained, and i wrote this sitting on my porch in Silverlake.
lyrics
Rain comes pouring down
Clean this filthy town
God knows we need a shower
Sun falls moon steals the light
Pretty girls descend to night
We all search for someone
And I’ve tried
But I’m stuck in a rut again tonight
Is it wrong to want someone to hold me tight
I’m stuck in a rut again tonight
Is it wrong if I want you to hold me
Until it’s right
White noise masks the city’s crying
Desperate as our alabies
We all go headed for nowhere
And I’ve tried
But I’m stuck in a rut again tonight….
Am I livin life
Or wastin time
I’m holdin on to feelin so sad
Guess I thought that i
Would somehow find
A way to live alone
But I’m stuck in a rut again tonight…
