[Verse 1]
I gotta say I took myself too literally
All the things in the world kept getting to me
Until the day that you set me free
I didn't even know what was going on
You showed me a side of me that I never knew
I'd like to think that you learned a little bit too
When things got hard, we pushed right through
In my weakest moments you kept me strong

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Yeah you saved me from me
My own worst enemy
I didn't even realise until you were gone

[Chorus]
Everything's the same in LA
Since the day that you went away
I can't say too much has changed

[Verse 2]
You know you and me, we seemed so right
When every single night ended with a fight
It got so dark and then I saw the light
I'm not really sure where it all went wrong
And then you left and my world came crashing down
I felt so small in this big ass town
Yo, you've got to get lost before you get found
I think one day I'll put that in a song
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Yeah you saved me from me
My own worst enemy
I would've been better off without you all along

[Chorus]
Everything's the same in LA
Since the day that you went away
I can't say too much has changed

[Alternate Chorus]
Everything's the same in LA
Since the day that you went away
I gotta say that I like it this way

[Verse 3]
I know we didn't plan on this
But everything's still the same in Los Angeles
I know for you it's not the same
But this is where I was born and raised
You and me will never be
But it wasn't you, it was me
I'm sorry to say and I feel pretty shitty
But I think you're better off in another city

[Chorus]
Everything's the same in LA
Since the day that you went away
I can't say too much has changed
[Alternate Chorus]
Everything's the same in LA
Since the day that you went away
I gotta say that I like it this way

[Chorus]
Everything's the same in LA
Since the day that you went away
I can't say too much has changed

[Alternate Chorus]
Everything's the same in LA
Since the day that you went away
I gotta say that I like it this way
