God Take Me Out of LA lyrics

[Verse 1]
I need the snow to fall on me
I need four weeks of rain
I need to feel grass under my feet
And when I feel that pain
I need the sky to darken up
And show me it knows my name
I can't see the sun shine one more time
God, take me out of LA

[Verse 2]
I miss my mama and the way she looks
That one hazy memory
Whether it's true don't matter to me
It's real, and I believe
And when I go home
You know that it hurts to hear them say
When'd you go so Hollywood, kid?
God, take me out of LA

[Chorus]
God, won't you take me out of LA?
Feels strange to ask
'Cause I'm the one who wanted to stay
I'm not built for this
Can't handlе it
But I still can't get away
God, take me out of LA
[Verse 3]
I hatе it here is what I'd say
If I lost half of my mind
The desert air don't agree with me
But mostly it's working out fine
Except for when I want to know something like the Earth
Except for when I'm feeling cursed, screaming
God, take me out of LA

[Verse 4]
Round every corner, I run into you all over again
And maybe we'll always fight like this
But can I just pretend
That I'd lose you on foot
Running square away from this place
Even though you'd show up anyway, oh
God, take me out of LA

[Chorus]
God, won't you take me out of LA?
Feels strange to ask
'Cause I'm the one who wanted to stay
Not built for this
Can't handle it
But I still can't get away
I'm so lonely in this place
Please, God, take me out of LA
[Verse 5]
When I'm gone, I'll miss the light
How it felt across my face
I miss how there was no urgency
Should I go, or should I stay?
That right there's the problem
I couldn't make one single choice
And at the end of the day, I'll always say
God took me out of LA
