lyrics

CALIFORNIA

I woke up in Salinas and I took my pills
Pointed the rental to the coast
I left a menace in the steady hills
kept to the road I knew the most

there's plenty of room for all your ghosts
plenty of room for all your ghosts in California

I fucked the married girls of Monterray
I sucked the dicks of route 1 south
I could see that Bixby Bridge would fall someday
given the motions of our mouths

but there's plenty of time to sort it out
plenty of time to sort it out in California

I found the engine open like you said
I tracked the mercy legend overhead
tended survivors and buried my dead
it came to nothing
it came to nothing in California

something inside me said stick to the maps
but I came to leave my blind spot here
I met an angel in a Big Sur tourist trap
but I came to leave my blind spot here

amognst the graves and in the truest face
amongst the graves and in the truest face
in California
in California
