lyrics

Sometimes I don’t even want to sleep with myself
I can’t decide if the words I say belong to me or someone else
I don’t even know who to trust anymore
You ask me if I want to go downtown, I turn to you and say “what for?”

Every word you said is coming true
I’m turning into California
Now I don’t even want to sleep with myself
I’m turning into California

You’re part of a world that I don’t recognize
Fake names, fluorescent lights, and eight-bit walls on every side
Always surrounded by dreams in your head
I ask you how you can live like that
You say it’s not so bad, now go to bed, go to bed

Every word you said is coming true
I’m turning into California
Now I don’t even want to sleep with myself
I’m turning into California

With magical thinking
the west coast is sinking
I see waves on the shore
and I don’t know who to trust anymore
No I don’t know who to trust anymore

Lately I just want to see the sun and the waves
and feel the wind along the shore and hear it whispering my name
Even if it’s only true for a day
I’ll take it into my heart and tell my demons they can have their way

Every word you said is coming true
I’m turning into California
Now I don’t even want to sleep with myself
I’m turning into California
