Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'd change my name to find some space, to get some rest
I'd give my face to find a place to put my head
But this is who we are, there's no glamor to it
[Verse 2]
I board the plane, and sleep my way to LAX
I cried at the rain but there's no way that I'm depressed
Oh, if I think too hard, I'm scared I might lose it
[Verse 3]
Oh
The Hollywood sign don't catch my eye much anymore
Oh, oh-ooh
Leave it to time to make me feel I'm gettin' old
I'm livin' with it
Give me the open mind that I had before
[Verse 4]
Oh-oh-oh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
I'm livin' with it
Oh-oh-oh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
I'm livin' with it
Oh-oh-oh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh, I'm a cynic
Oh-oh-oh-ooh
Give me the open mind that I had before
[Verse 5]
They sense the blame that comes with failure and success
Would it make me famous if I break down in the press?
And give them what they want, there's no effort to it
[Verse 6]
Oh
The Hollywood sign don't catch my eye much anymore
Oh, oh-ooh
Leave it to time to make me feel I'm gettin' old
I'm livin' with it
Give me the open mind that I had before
[Verse 7]
Oh-oh-oh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
I'm livin' with it
Oh-oh-oh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
I'm livin' with it
Oh-oh-oh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh, I'm a cynic
Oh-oh-oh-ooh
Give me the open mind that I had before
[Verse 8]
I miss the days when one was better than the last
I miss the taste of growin' pains I knew would pass
Oh, I miss those thoughts and that fear of losin'
[Verse 9]
Oh, I don't know why I see no light in anything
Oh, oh-ooh
Leave it to life to turn my strengths back into weaknesses
But I'm livin' with 'em
So give me the open mind that I had before
[Verse 10]
Oh-oh-oh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
I'm livin' with it
Oh-oh-oh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
I'm livin' with it
Oh-oh-oh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh, I'm a cynic
Oh-oh-oh-ooh
Give me the open mind that I had before
[Verse 11]
Oh-oh-oh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
There's something missin' darlin', oh
Oh-oh-oh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
I'm livin' with it
Oh-oh-oh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
'Cause I'm a cynic, darlin', ah
Give me the open mind that I had before
