Eva Britton - California (Rough Acoustic Demo)

Lyrics (by Eva Britton):

I haven't cried in a week,
But now I'm breaking my streak
Cause even though it's been some time now,
I still feel kind of bleak
I wouldn't want it back though,
I just feel stuck in time
And isn't it convenient that my feelings all rhyme?

In California,
Where everything is bright
But maybe the sunshine,
It isn't for ya
You're leaving it behind
But you know where to find me

I read your mind before you even thought it
I wanna help you, but you just forgot it
I wasn't kidding, but you can still laugh
But can I regret on somebody's behalf?
Cause I can't even talk to you now, without
Feeling like I'm missing out

And so, instead of being angry, my revenge is living well
I thought it would be working, but now you can't even tell
Cause I'm the one surrounded by the legacy you made
But no one's there to pester you, remind you of my name
Yeah, you left me alone with an emotional grenade

In California,
Where everything is bright
But maybe the sunshine,
It isn't for ya
You're leaving it behind
But you know where to find me

Then, it was Sodom and Gomorrah
And today, it's California
It isn't where I belong
But if I'm leaving my mark,
I'll make it glow in the dark
Where my light is most strong

In California,
Where everything is bright
But maybe the sunshine,
It isn't for ya
You're leaving it behind
But you know where to find me
You'll find me
In California
(Follow the road, and see where it goes)
In California
(Leaving behind the dark that you find)
In California
Yeah, if you change your mind
Then you know where to find me
