Leaving L​.​A.

from Elevator Music by Bryan Macdonald

lyrics

Sensing the changes
End credits looming
The yellow cars
have all gone away

Hard to explain the emotions they’re seeing tonight

A trembling finger
Presses down on red
Paths to redemption
In the stroke of a pen

Peaceful fires warm the darkness of the sky

Turning their eyes, as the cameras roll
Their world begins to fade
Below a crumbling hillside sign
Their word thrown to the curb on sunset and vine

Casting aside
The creative pen
Their only thought
A sequel, to defend

Don’t give them what they want
Let’s give them what we need

A private bird approaches
Through the haze
A royal footprint
In the clear morning air

Wearing their smile they say, don’t worry
Just do as we heed


Turning their eyes, as the cameras roll
Their world begins to fade
Below a crumbling hillside sign
Their word thrown to the curb on sunset and vine

Sensing her chance
The skills she’s ready to stage
From palatial mansions
Where she’ll now, forever stay

Character actor
Troubled thoughts to convey
Wild eyes narrow
Final act of this play

Hard to explain the darkness he’s feeling inside
Eyes watching the cold light of the night

But now he thinks it’s time, to leave L.A.
