Moved to the city

Kept myself busy making money

Chasing dreams like a junky

Feeling pretty lonely

A common hazard of the LA territory

Oh oh oh oh ohhhh

Hard knock life taught me not to need anybody

Hold my aces close I don't believe we just get lucky

It could be tricky trying to fit you in this story

You make me feel like a fool

Cause you make me break all my rules

A goodbye on the tip of my tongue

I’ve got my shoes tied and I’m ready to run

But I keep coming back

This must be serious

Serious, serious Oh oh oh ohhhh

One foot out the door, one hand on the gun

I make my escape before it’s even begun

But I keep coming back

This must be serious

Serious, serious Oh oh oh ohhhh

See the neon lights in your eyes

Stop looking at me

You think you’ve got me figured out

This is not a movie

I’ve spent my life building walls

You won’t break them, trust me

You make me feel like a fool

Cause you make me break all my rules

A goodbye on the tip of my tongue

I’ve got my shoes tied and I’m ready to run

But I keep coming back

This must be serious

Serious, serious Oh oh oh ohhhh

One foot out the door, one hand on the gun

I make my escape before it’s even begun

But I keep coming back

This must be serious,

Serious, serious Oh oh oh ohhhh

I like you more than I like to admit

It’s not a big deal, maybe it is

I like you more than I like to admit

It’s not a big deal, maybe it is Serious

A goodbye on the tip of my tongue

I’ve got my shoes tied and I’m ready to run

But I keep coming back

This must be serious

Serious, serious Oh oh oh ohhhh

One foot out the door, one hand on the gun

I make my escape before it’s even begun

But I keep coming back

This must be serious

Serious, serious Oh oh oh ohhhh
