California

I flew to the other side, landed on the coastline Didn't know what do all alone for the first time Found the long way out of my mental maze And felt the sun-kissed tide wipe away my slate I've been trying to find myself Took a trip to the west coast to look for help Got no options left to lose I got nothing here to prove So what am I supposed to do? Crashing down for a very long time Burning on the fumes of my first high I've been chasing stars for a heavenly sign And I found it, and I found it On the waves of California On the waves of California Find myself with a 5-man band on the boardwalk Working day to day but they give it all they got They tell me everything's gonna be alright As they chip away at a skeptic's mind I've been trying to find myself Took a trip to the west coast to look for help Oh this city's full of dreams And nothing's as it seems So what is that supposed to mean Crashing down for a very long time Burning on the fumes of my first high I've been chasing stars for a heavenly sign And I found it, and I found it On the waves of California On the waves of California You get get to 25 On cruise control your whole life You're paralyzed Your future's running out of time Nothing you wanted is where you're driving to And now you're too scared to try something new But LA (LA, LA) Gave me some kind of a clue So I wrote down a list of goals and put it in a bottle Vowed my yesterday's wouldn't bleed into tomorrows Flew back to the east coast with a west coast state of mind My heart was thundering home on California time
