"New California" lyrics
"New California"
What is this place? What has it become?
The kids are fuckin' stupid, the adults are dumb
My fingertips are shaking, but I'm holdin' the gun
Right beside my temple 'cause I wanna have fun
And the fear is all we know
(Wanna talk about it?) No
When the fear is all we know
Where do we go?
Welcome to New California
Yeah, paradise has lost her way
You'll die inside New California
It's all brand-new, nothing's changed
The stars are all here, but they can't be seen
They die beside the fentanyl and amphetamines
I wanna write a novel, but my fingers are numb
We're all a bunch of losers, but at least we have fun
And the fear is all we know
And we've got nowhere left to go
When the fear is all we know
How do we grow?
Bobby was a wreck and he was trackin' on some breakfast
He went out to get some eggs and forgot his fuckin' gold necklace
Now he's rockin' by the beaches and he's layin' under piers
But he doesn't understand that everybody disappears
'Cause the beach is made of blood and you can see it in the sand
And everybody thinks Los Angeles is golden and it's grand
The truth is in the water, you can taste it if you drink it
Now his ship is setting sail, but he's gonna fucking sink it
Welcome to New California
Yeah, paradise has lost her way
You'll die inside New California
It's all brand-new, nothing's changed
What is this place? What has it become?
What is this place? What has it become?
What is this place? What has it become?
What is this place? What has it be—
Thanks to Kyle for correcting these lyrics.

Nothing More - "Fade In / Fade Out" Just the other day I looked at my father
It was the first time I saw he'd grown old
Canyons through his skin and the rivers that made them

HELLYEAH - "Alcohaulin' Ass" A little bit of sunshine
A little bit of booze
A little bit of me
And a little bit of you

Chevelle - "Take Out The Gunman" Awoke when the light
Hit me right in the temple
Felt something cold
Touch my toes as it passed

Got me pegged in the back
Just need a bit...
Royal Blood - "Trouble's Coming" I gave my knuckles a run for their money
Spider web, cracks on the mirror
I see someone but not somebody

DREAMERS - "Heat Seeker" Johnny brought a rocket to a knife fight
He got sick of people thinking he's a good guy
Had a Big Mac head for a small fry
Balenciaga shades so they never see him cry
