L.A. lights never shine quite as bright as in the movies Still wanna go There's something here In the way, in the way that we're constantly moving Reminds you of home
So you've taken these pills For to fill up your soul And you're drinking them down with cheap alcohol I might be inclined to be yours for the taken And part of this terrible mess that you're making But me, I'm the catalyst
When you say love is a simple chemical reaction Can't say I agree Cuz my chemical, yeah, left me a beautiful disaster Still love's all I see
So I'm taking these pills for to fill up my soul And I'm drinking them down with cheap alcohol And you'd be inclined to be mine for the taking You're part of this terrible mess that I'm making But you, you're the catalyst
You'll be the thing You'll be the pain You'll be the star You'll be the road, rolling below The wheels of a car
And all of the thoughts, oh god Don't know if I'm strong enough now You'll be the thing You'll be the pain You'll be the Catalyst
These L.A. lights, no no, They don't shine quite as bright as back in Frisco Do you wanna go? Still wanna go
