[00:35.91]When I was a young, I had a dream
[00:38.15]Movin' to the city sight unseen
[00:40.58]19 years of age I'm packing my bags
[00:42.88]Hollywood was all the rage
[00:45.74]I came to you in 1984
[00:47.86]You showed me in, then you shut the door
[00:50.28]It didn't take me long to learn to play the game
[00:52.83]A kick in the head always feels the same
[00:55.51]Los Angeles, you're a fuckin whore
[00:59.74]Hollywood, you're an open sore
[01:15.35]I played it well, and I played it fast
[01:17.65]Livin' slow was in the past
[01:20.02]Chicks and drugs and getting burnt
[01:22.63]Just a few of the things I 'learnt'
[01:25.18]Got sick and tired of being scared as hell
[01:27.92]A wasted man, just a shell of myself
[01:29.91]But that was then, and this is now
[01:32.40]My pretty baby, I've changed somehow
[01:35.07]Los angeles, you've lost you're grip
[01:40.11]Drugs and lies and whores suckin dick
[01:45.83]I don't know if I could do things differently
[01:50.50]L.A.'s had me for so long
[01:55.41]When I look I can see things differently
[02:00.39]What doesn't kill me makes me strong
[02:04.47]makes me strong
[02:07.42]Strong
[02:16.77]Los Angeles, I didn't sell my soul to you
[02:21.44]Los Angeles, you thought you would kill me
[02:25.71]You thought you would kill me
[02:27.58]You thought you could take me down
[02:30.44]You thought you would kill me
[02:34.11]Fuck that, power to me
[02:47.29]Los Angeles, you're a fuckin whore
[02:52.29]A kick in the head for I lost my girl
[02:58.14]I don't know if I can do things differently
[03:02.80]L.A.'s had me for so long
[03:07.84]When I look I can see things differently
[03:12.24]I get up I crawl out and now I'm strong
[03:15.91]And now I'm strong
[03:25.67]Sometimes it goes like this
[03:31.91]Sometimes it's the only way
[03:36.08]A kick in the head
[03:46.42]I wish you were there
[03:48.47]A kick in the head
