Playing The Part

Taking a dip on the sunset strip in the mornin'
 Ain't nothing like the smell of tofu and high dollar wine
 They said maybe all of them cars locking down the I-5
 Yeah I find it amazing these rats I've been chasing are helping me remember a time
 When the only LA I knew was lower Alabama
 Back when me and Hannah were wishing on a southern star
 Now its so complicated, I really hate it, why'd I ever want to go so far
 Taking depression pills in the Hollywood Hills
 Acting like I'm playing the part
 All this gripping and grinning, losing and winning, and running
 Promises break like an egg on the hot asphalt
 What the hell was I thinking, drinking like I'd never get caught
 These high dollar women, and the fame and the fortune, ain't worth the ticket I bought
 When the only LA I knew was lower Alabama
 Back when me and Hannah were wishing on a southern star
 Now its so complicated, I really hate it, why'd I ever want to go so far
 Taking depression pills in the Hollywood Hills
 Acting like I'm playing the part
 Taking depression pills in the Hollywood Hills
 Acting like I'm playing the part
