paroles de chanson California (Rock Me Slow) - Brian Dunne

California, rock me slow
'Cause I've been torn and tattered and battered up in my soul
And the lights, they would shine so bright, don't shine no more
California, rock me slow

I got a credit to my name,
But it doesn't feel the same as it used to
People knock you all around,
Bring you up and bring you down, and they use you
I used to trust in people how they'd trust in me,
Guess I just changed how I felt
'Cause lately I feel like I don't even trust myself

California, rock me slow
'Cause I've been torn and tattered and battered up in my soul
And the lights, they would shine so bright, don't shine no more
California, rock me slow

And honey, aren't you tired?
'Cause I'm so tired of running
From chasing down highs,
And wondering if they might be something,
But they were nothing

Another rent check late,
Another bill I can't pay in the mailbox
Another void in my heart,
And a dream that won't start in a deadlock
Well, I used to see this city as a beacon of hope,
But now it's just a beacon of fear
Oh, where dreams come to die in the heat of the fire down here

California, rock me slow
'Cause I've been torn and tattered and battered up in my soul
And the lights, they would shine so bright, don't shine no more
California, rock me slow
California, rock me slow
