Game Theory Laurel Canyon
Where are they taking you tonight, Julie Ann?
With some inspiring dream of doing better than all your school girlfriends
Photographed on island shores
Breezing in through hotel doors
From which there will be no return
How have they told you things will change, Julie Ann?
That it's a necessary evil
Leaving me with all of life's loose ends?
And do they say leave bad and good
With other things from your childhood
They are no longer your concerns?
Everywhere she turns
Laurel Canyon burns and no one ever learns
How many times will you be making your new start?
Editing what you've been through line by line ‘til someone thinks it looks like art
It may not have a truthful ring
But one day you'll give anything
To get away from everything you've earned
Maybe you just don't see that you're leaving me
You're leaving me
Don't you know they got you too easily
Too easily too easily
