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
