LA song Lyrics

Cover art for LA song lyrics by Beth Hart

This may seem a little out there...but I think the song is a metaphor for suicide and then realizing not to do it.

"She drank so hard the bottle ached And She tried (repeat 3x)"

The girl first tries to numb her pain by drinking

She's gotta gun (repeat 1x) Shes got a gun she calls the lucky one She left a note right bye the phone Don't leave no message cause this ain't no home And she cried (repeat 3x) She cried so long her tears ran dry Then she laughed (repeat3x) 'Cause she knew she was never comin' back

She attempts suicide or at least contemplates it, "LA" is all the bad stuff in her life, but she has to go back there to deal with it. "Getting out of town" aka suicide wouldn't solve anything
