"Lost Angeles" lyrics

"Lost Angeles"

Driving on Sunset
Everything's perfect
But I think that we missed
That turn 'bout a mile ago

So cinematic
Over-dramatic
But I think that we lost ourselves
A while ago

This used to be romantic
But now it makes me panic
Sometimes I love the city
Then I remember what you did to me

Thought that by now it'd be over
But your memory's making me colder
How did you lead me so wrong?

Lost Angeles, I've had enough
Go ahead and take me home
Lost Angeles, you're the loneliest
City I've ever known

It's some kind of fucked up
Whenever we break up
I feel like I made a mistake
By drawing the line (Woo-ooh)

When I'm not with you
I start to miss you
How do you make me feel
All of these things every time? (Woo-ooh)

This used to be romantic
But now it makes me panic
Sometimes I start to shudder when
I'm thinking of our golden summer

Thought that by now it'd be over
But your memory's making me colder
How did you lead me so wrong?

Lost Angeles, I've had enough
Go ahead and take me home
Lost Angeles, you're the loneliest
City I've ever known

It's all your faults I love about you
You can find my heart in
Lost Angeles, you're the loneliest
City I've ever known

(Ooh-ooh-ooh, oh-oh-oh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
It's all your faults I love about you, mmm
(Ooh-ooh-ooh, oh-oh-oh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
You can find my heart in
(Ooh-ooh-ooh, oh-oh-oh, ooh-ooh-ooh)

Lost Angeles, I've had enough
Go ahead and take me home
(Go ahead and take me home)
Lost Angeles, you're the loneliest
(You're the loneliest) City I've ever known
(Oh-oh-oh-oh)

But it's all your faults I love about you
You can find my heart in
Lost Angeles, you're the loneliest
City I've ever known

Alisa of The Aces explained in an interview for Teen Vogue, "'Lost Angeles' came through a poem. I had written a poem on a flight one time, and it was back when we hadn't moved to L.A. yet. We were still in that phase where we would travel back and forth and stay in hotels. And I remember the song was inspired by the experience of when you first go to L.A. and how exciting, romantic, and crazy Hollywood feels."
