Not in California Songtext
von K.Flay

We have not allowed ourselves to comprehend
What failure might mean for us
Is it a comfort or a curse
The knowledge that we could have avoided all this?

The birds all died and the trees caught fire
And the government, it called us crazy
We built a big world, then we watched it all burn
′Cause the television made us lazy
It didn't seem true when the power lines blew
We′re, the heroin, it made us hazy
I looked up at the clouds as I was freaking out
God save me

We're not in California any more
We're not in California any more
Traded all our sunshine in for a storm
Don′t say I didn′t warn ya
We're not in California any more


The babies all cry as the scientists try
But the politicians keep on screaming
I′d like a roadmap, like to turn the clock back
But the internet, it keeps on freezing
Drink up every bottle, and I smoke some marijuana
I was hoping I could find some peace
I looked up at the clouds, the light was peaking out
I can't believe it

We′re not in California any more
We're not in California any more
Traded all our sunshine in for a storm
Don′t say I didn't warn ya
We're not in California any more

Visions of the distant and some searching for the synonyms
But all that I can say is that I think I lost my innocence
And I bet if I asked everybody that I know
They′d wanna be a kid again
Visions of the distant and some searching for the synonyms
But all that I can say is that I think I lost my innocence
And I bet if I asked everybody that I know
They′d wanna be a kid again
So they could do it different

We're not in California any more
We′re not in California any more
Traded all our sunshine in for a storm
Don't say I didn′t warn ya
We're not in California any more


Not in California any more
Not in California any more
Don′t say I didn't warn ya
We're not in California any more
