Glitter & Gold

I don’t know why
I wanted to be in LA
Chasin’ stars
Living life a cliché
The coffee was cold
And the lines were long
Waiting for dreams to brew
But it felt so wrong

Every corner turned
There’s a tale to unfold
In the city where the heart beats bold
On the ‘gram
All glitter and gold
But the real life stories, never told

Dreams in the haze of LA
They turn to dust
In a world where the lights are bright
Who can you trust?
Fame and fortune
They come with a cost
In the city of angels
Dreams turn to dust

Echoes of gossip
They whisper through the night
Neon lights and shadows
A constant fight
From a busy bar
To a broken down car
In the city of dreams
You won’t get far

Every corner turned
There’s a tale to unfold
In the city where the heart beats bold
On the ‘gram
All glitter and gold
But the real life stories, never told

Dreams in the haze of LA
They turn to dust
In a world where the lights are bright
Who can you trust?
Fame and fortune
They come with a cost
In the city of angels
Dreams turn to dust

And when the sun sets
On the cracks of the boulevard
We count all of our scars
We’ve come so far
In the hazy nights of LA
I couldn’t find my own way
Through the ups and downs
We chased our dreams away

Every corner turned
There’s a tale to unfold
In the city where the heart beats bold
On the ‘gram
All glitter and gold
But the real life stories, never told

Dreams in the haze of LA
They turn to dust
In a world where the lights are bright
Who can you trust?
Fame and fortune
They come with a cost
In the city of angels
Dreams turn to dust

Haze of LA
They turn to dust
Lights are bright
Who can you trust?
Fame and fortune
They come with a cost
Dreams turn to dust
