"California" lyrics
"California"
It's the blue mist rising
It's the cracked leather seat
It's the blacktop summer
It's the razor-sharp heat
It's the picture plastic perfect Virgin Mary on her knees
It's the crack rock city
It's the people without wings
It's the only place that gets me high
I seen the sun come up a thousand times
Got you begging me to end it, but I just can't stop
Got me staring at the lines until they drop
It's just another day in paradise
It's just another day in California
Been getting used to living on the edge of life
We try to numb the sky and blurry the world away
It's the palm trees burning
It's the drip from the sink
It's the cherry chrome psychic with that cellophane sting
It's that liquor store religion when you gotta get the Jinx
It's the roof top open
It's your body on the brink
We choose to run
We're broken like cracks into the ground
Yeah, when you live in the sun
You blurry the world to get away
It's just another day in paradise
It's just another day in California
Been getting used to living on the edge of life
We try to numb the sky and blurry the world away
It's just another day in paradise
There's gotta be
Somewhere
There's gotta be
Something more
To give, to feel alive while we suffer
And blurry the world away
It's just another day of falling hard
It's just another day of counting scars
We've fallen apart
It's just another day in paradise
It's just another day in California
Been getting used to living on the edge of life
We try to numb the sky and blurry the world away
It's just another day in paradise
It's just another day
It's just another day

Kingdom Of Giants - "Scorpion" Did the damage we've been fighting nonstop words we can't recover
Cause' I can tell you that it's been a minute since we wanna talk like lovers
I guess we're spinning out another falling out
And...
Orthodox - "Sacred Place" Ripping apart every mistake
Sleeping wide awake
Can't even answer the call
(Where do you think we are?)
Helpless
Alone
Leaving holes to listen for the voice in the wall
(It seethes)
Passion...
Allt - "Memory Of Light" They're out there
Eyes seek through the sky
Not a glimpse of light
Trying to memorize
These faint traces
Did you really check
The noose around your neck?
This is the final battle
Pale hands reaching...
Novelists - "All For Nothing" I'd be dreaming of it all
A great design
Love is fleeting
It's dawning on me that hope is blinding
It's like my world is going mad
While I'm running out of air
Love is fleeting
It's dawning on me...
ALAZKA - "Phoenix" You're reaching out to me again
I'll turn my back and
Try to ignore the words
Your helping hand
When I'm not listening
I will never find a way to break
The mask you wear
If you still hesitate
Still...
