[Verse 1]
She was dreaming of her big break
She constructed the right attitude
Bought a plan and a time frame
Just gotta make it glue, make it glue
'Cause the universe has got plans
And competition can dry you up
And now she's living on a road map
[Chorus]
People don't change people, time does
People don't change people, time does
People don't change people, time does
[Verse 2]
She met him in the bottle
Beneath the glare of the morning light
Bad actress, decent model
But good at taking a bite
And we're all trying to get better
And we've all had quite enough
Of this pleasant displeasure
[Chorus]
But people don't change people, time does
People don't change people, time does
People don't change people, time does
[Bridge]
And I'd love to help you out
I'd love to get us off of this swing, this roundabout
I'd love to turn you on and remove these golden handcuffs
[Chorus]
But people don't change people, don't change people
Don't change people, time does
Time does
Time does
People don't change people, time does
People don't change people, time does

I had this idea in my mind of this actress moving to LA. LA is like this city of shattered dreams but still so much optimism and I just had this idea of this girl moving to LA pursuing an acting career and then it slowly drifting away in front of her eyes. And then I think sonically that was certain...
This was another lyric or title that I liked for a long time. It’s a story about how brutal LA is on young, optimistic artists. I had this idea of this young actress coming into the city for the first time with all these hopes and then them just being slowly crushed one by one as time went on.
— Ma...
You hear that a lot in LA. You get in an Uber, and someone will be like, ‘Oh, yeah, I’m a film producer’ or ‘I’m an actor’. You hear those stories left, right and centre. It’s a city that oozes that.
