Monterey, CA

So I'm in the middle of subzero progress Trouble is that most lessons are part of the process But I'm stepping back a grade, a poor pathetic accolade Like stepping backwards into my own dagger blade It took Shelley a week to forget me Something in the water taught her she never met me For all the times that I told myself I knew her I took a piece of my mind like a tumor Why wait for what is only the night So quiet, not a parrot in sight Gathering dust on a chair that divides us Shadows dance with the sorrow inside us Why wait for what is only the end I've lost such a valuable friend Still I feel the static friction below Still I wait for I can never let go It happened in Monterey just like I said so Acting like you wanted me as I hung my head low I tried to warn you California cannot love you When you go on about there's no one else above you We reached Los Angeles and handled this poorly We had our fun, just know you shall be missed sorely
