Los Ageless Lyrics
In Los Ageless, the winter never comes
In Los Ageless, the mothers milk their young
But I can keep runnin'
Oh, I can keep runnin', ah-ah, oh, ah-ah
The lost sages hang out by the bar
Burn the pages of unwritten memoirs
But I can keep runnin'
Oh, I can keep runnin' ah-ah, oh, ah-ah
[Chorus]
How can anybody have you?
How can anybody have you and lose you?
How can anybody have you and lose you
And not lose their mind, too?
How can anybody have you?
How can anybody have you and lose you?
How can anybody have you and lose you
And not lose their mind, too? (Oh)
[Verse 2]
The last days of the sunset superstars
Girls in cages playin' their guitars
But how can I leave?
I just follow the hood of my car, oh, ah-ah
In Los Ageless, the waves they never break
They build and build until you don't have no escape
But how can I leave?
I just follow my hood to the sea, go to sleep
How can anybody have you?
How can anybody have you and lose you?
How can anybody have you and lose you
And not lose their mind, too?
How can anybody have you?
How can anybody have you and lose you?
How can anybody have you and lose you
And not lose their mind, too? (Oh)
[Bridge]
Oh my Lola, we really did it now
I'm a monster and you're my sacred cow
Oh, I can keep running
No, I can't keep on running, ah-ah, oh, ah-ah
[Chorus]
How can anybody have you?
How can anybody have you and lose you?
How can anybody have you and lose you
And not lose their mind, too?
How can anybody have you?
How can anybody have you and lose you?
How can anybody have you and lose you
And not lose their mind?
About
Los Ageless, the fifth track on St. Vincent’s MASSEDUCTION, was released on September 6th along with the full announcement of the album.
The title is a play on the city of Los Angeles and references the lyrics of “New York”.
Even as both songs are soaked in heartbreak, “Los Ageless” could be considered the antithesis to “New York”. Aside from the East Coast/West Coast polarity, the shorter, sweeter, subtlety of “New York” is completely juxtaposed by the wilder, longer, explosivity of “Los Ageless.”
The song features contributions from her uncle and aunt, Tuck and Patti Andress – also known as the long-running jazz duo Tuck & Patti.
