Lyrics

Loveless City won't you show some pity
You're a hundred miles wide without an inch of pride
There's too many faces always changing places
At a hundred miles a minute you don't realize your limit

Chorus:
I came to you believing dreams come true
What a lie such a beautiful lie
Your skies are grey who took the sun away
I want to know where it's all going to go

Loveless City, hey won't you show some pity
Look out you mecca of communication misusing your reputation
There's too many faces always changing places
There's every kind of stranger, there's every kind of danger

Chorus 2:
I came to you believing dreams come true
What a lie such a beautiful lie
Your skies are grey who took the sun away
I want to know where it's all going to go

Bridge:
Now Hollywood I can't stay
You're taking my soul away
You lie to me too often
Get cut down again and again and again

Chorus 3 and 4:
What a lie such a beautiful lie
Your skies are grey who took the sun away
I want to know where it's all going to go

I came to you yeah ya believe it dreams come true
But that's a lie such a beautiful lie
Your skies are grey who took the sun away
I want to know tell me where's it all going to go oh oh oh oh
Ew lovely loveless Loveless city
Not an inch not an inch of pity
