Why’s everyone still singing about California?
Haven’t we heard enough about the Golden State?
I guess if you like sandy beaches and blue ocean water
There’s just something about it, to which I cannot relate
I need to see the leaves change and the snowflakes falling
I need to hear the call, the wind whistling through the winter pines

Why’s everyone still singing about California?
Haven’t we heard enough about the Golden State?
And people still follow them dreams to sweet California
And from time to time I pass on by, but I will never stay

Sure there are beautiful people, in the city of lost angels
They’re living like they’re kings and queens, from some royal age
But fortune and fame won’t save you, when California
Is wiped out by the ring of fire or a great earthquake

Why’s everyone still singing about California?
Haven’t we heard enough about the Golden State?
And people still follow them dreams to sweet California
And from time to time I pass on by, but I will never stay
No, I will never stay
Never stay
Never stay

City and Colour (Band)
“The Golden State” (Song)
The Hurry and the Harm (Album)

From walking home and talking loads
To seeing shows in evening clothes with you
From nervous touch and getting drunk
To staying up and waking up with you

But now we’re sleeping at the edge
Holding something we don’t need
All this delusion in our heads
Is gonna bring us to our knees

So come on let it go
Just let it be
Why don’t you be you
And I’ll be me

Everything that’s broke
Leave it to the breeze
Why don’t you be you
And I’ll be me

And I’ll be me

From throwing clothes across the floor
To teeth and claws and slamming doors at you
If this is all we’re living for
Why are we doing it, doing it, doing it anymore

I used to recognize myself
It’s funny how reflections change
When we’re becoming something else
I think it’s time to walk away

So come on let it go
Just let it be
Why don’t you be you
And I’ll be me

Everything that’s broke
Leave it to the breeze
Why don’t you be you
And I’ll be me

And I’ll be me

Trying to fit your hand inside of mine
When we know it just don’t belong
There’s no force on earth
Could make me feel right, no

Whoa

Trying to push this problem up the hill
When it’s just too heavy to hold
Think now’s the time to let it slide

So come on let it go
Just let it be
Why don’t you be you
And I’ll be me

Everything that’s broke
Leave it to the breeze
Let the ashes fall
Forget about me

Come on let it go
Just let it be
Why don’t you be you
And I’ll be me

And I’ll be me

James Bay (Band)
“Let It Go” (Song)
Chaos and the Calm (Album)

Yeah, I’ve walked through dangers,
I’ve talked to strangers but they didn’t understand
When the world seems senseless
It’s me and you against them
And I love you because you know who I am

All you dreamers keep dreaming
And let does dreams rise into the light
Go find someone who loves you, to live those dreams through
Don’t you go and get swallowed by the night

I’ve walked the stages
I’ve read the pages and never reached the end
All the world seems senseless
You’re here with me against them
and I love you because you know who I am

Deep inside every soul
There’s a sadness on the verge of climbing through
Now don’t you try and fix it, why would you do that?
How beautiful when sadness turns to songs

And I’ll walk through dangers
I’ll dance with strangers but they’ll never understand
We’ll never be defenseless
We’ll win this war against them
Don’t you doubt this, yeah I’m sure we can
And who cares if they don’t ever understand
And I love you because you know who I am

David Fonseca (Band)
“U Know Who I Am” (Song)
Between Waves (Album)

You showed him all the best of you
But I’m afraid your best
Wasn’t good enough
And know he never wanted you
At least not the way
You wanted yourself to be loved
And you feel like you were a mistake
He’s not worth all those tears that won’t go away

I wish you could see that
Still you try to impress him
But he never will listen

Oh broken angel
Were you sad when he crushed all your dreams
Oh broken angel
Inside you’re dying ’cause you can’t believe

And now you’ve grown up
With this notion that you were to blame
And you seem so strong sometimes
But I know that you still feel the same
As that little girl who shined like an angel
Even after his lazy heart put you through hell

I wish you could see that
Still you try to impress him
But he never will listen

Oh broken angel
Were you sad when he crushed all your dreams?
Oh broken angel
Inside you’re dying ’cause you can’t believe
He would leave you alone
And leave you so cold
When you were his daughter
But the blood in your veins
As you carry his name
Turns thinner than water
You’re just a broken angel

And I promise that it’s not your fault
It was never your fault
And I promise that it’s not your fault
It was never your fault…

Boyce Avenue (Band)
“Broken Angel” (Song)
All We Have Left (Album)

It’s like whatever I do
Ooh
I Just can’t get through you
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, oh
I loved it when you said there was nothin wrong
ohh
listen

[Verse 1:]
Now, now she loved me, shawty I loved her
Used to jump up in the maybach and roll out
Used to care, she used to share
The love that she used to give me can’t be found
I lost my way, she said she’d stay
And lately I’ve been sleeping with a ghost
My stock is down and out, I used to be worth my weight in gold
That was before the great depression kicked in and rocked us
And that was before the hurricane came in and stopped us
I told you to leave, but you lied to me
When you said that, baby no worries I promise to get us back

[Chorus:]
I know sorries, just wouldn’t do it
Her heart is obliterated, I’m trying to travel through
But it’s like moving mountains…
It’s like moving mountains… hey
But I keep climbing and hoping things would change
And the sky turns grey, and the water from the rain washes progress away
It’s like moving mountains…
It’s like moving mountains…
Why just leave me, just leave me, be
Just leave me, just leave me, be
Why you just leave me, just leave me, Be
Why you just leave me, just leave me be ooh

[Verse 2:]
She, she don’t touch me, I don’t touch her
We aint really even ever say a word.
I really want to give her everything she deserves
But, the bad took away the good
She thinks that I’m full of it, arguments, always pissed, man I’m tired
Every kiss, that I missed, girl you know I’m trying
You never believe me when I say, and I never believe it when you say
I love you, and I shouldn’t complain about it
I should take it like a man and walk up out it
Cause we will never be the same ooh
I’ve been standing in gas, and you have been the flames

[Chorus]
I know sorries, just wouldn’t do it
Her heart is obliterated, I’m trying to get through
Gotta move this mountain, yeah
It’s like moving mountains… hey
But I keep climbing and hoping things would change
And the sky turns grey, and the water from the rain washes progress away
It’s like moving mountains…
It’s like moving mountains…
why you just leave me,
Just leave me, be
Just leave me, just leave me, be
why you just, just leave me, be
why you just leave me
Be ooh

[Background singing]

I know sorries, just wouldn’t do it
Her heart is obliterated, I’m trying travel through
But it’s like moving mountains…
It’s like moving mountains… hey
But I keep climbing and hoping things would change
And the sky turns grey, and the water from the rain washes progress away
It’s like moving mountains…
It’s like moving mountains…
Well baby why you just leave me,
Just leave me, be
Just leave me, just leave me, be
Why you just leave me, just leave me, be
Why you just leave me, just leave me be ooh

How do I breathe, yeah?
How do I breathe, yeah?

[Verse:]
It feels so different being here,
I was so used to being next to you,
Life for me is not the same,
There’s no one to turn to.
I don’t know why I let it go too far,
Starting over – it’s so hard.
Seems like everywhere I try to go,
I keep thinking of you.

[Hook:]
I just had a wake up call,
Wishing that I never let you fall,
Baby you are not to blame at all.
when I’m the one that pushed you away.
Baby if you knew I cared,
You’d have never went nowhere (nowhere),
Girl I should’ve been right there.

[Chorus:]
How do I breathe
Without you here by my side?
How will I see
When your love brought me to the light?
Where do I go
When your heart’s where I lay my head?
When you’re not with me,
How do I breathe?
How do I breathe?

[Verse:]
Girl I’m losin’ my mind.
Yes I made a mistake.
I thought that you would be mine.
Guess the joke was on me.
I miss you so bad, I can’t sleep.
I wish I knew where you could be.
Another dude is replacing me,
God this can’t be happening.

[Hook:]
I just had a wake up call (call),
Wishing that I never let you fall (fall),
Baby you are not to blame at all.
When I’m the one that pushed you away
Baby if you knew I cared (cared),
You’d have never went nowhere (nowhere),
Girl I should’ve been right there.

[Chorus:]
(And I wonder…)
How do I breathe
Without you here by my side?
How will I see
When your love brought me to the light?
Where do I go
When your heart’s where I lay my head?
When you’re not with me (I’m saying),
How do I breathe?
How do I breathe?

[Verse:]
I can’t get over you, no
Baby I don’t wanna let go, no
Girl you need to come home
Girl come back to me
‘Cause girl you made it hard to breathe
When you’re not with me.

[Chorus:]
(Tell me)
How do I breathe
Without you here by my side?
How will I see
When your love brought me to the light?
Where do I go (where do I, where do I go)
When your heart’s where I lay my head?
When you’re not with me,
How do I breathe?

How do I breathe?
[Some speaking starts]
Without you here by my side?
How will I see (how will I see)
When your love brought me to the light (baby, baby)?
Where do I go (where do)
When your heart’s where I lay my head?
When you’re not with me (you’re not with me),
How do I breathe (how do I breathe)?
How do I breathe?

Maybe this decision was a mistake.
You probably don’t care what I have to say.
But it’s been heavy on my mind for months now.
Guess I’m trying to clear some mental space.
I would love to talk to you in person.
But I understand why that can’t be.
I’ll leave you alone for good I promise.
If you answer this one question for me.

I just wonder,
Do you ever,
Think of me,
Anymore, do you?

First off let me say congratulations.
Heard that you just had a baby girl.
If she looks anything like her mother,
She’s the prettiest thing in the world.
Swear that I’m not tryin’ to start no trouble.
Tell your fiance he can relax.
I’ll leave you alone for good I promise,
There’s a question I just gotta ask.

I just wonder,
Do you ever,
Think of me,
Anymore, do you?

I know what we have is dead and gone.
Too many times I made you cry.
And I don’t mean to interrupt your life.
I just wonder do I ever cross your mind?

I just wonder,
Do you ever,
Think of me,
Anymore, do you?

I just wonder
Do you ever
Think of me
Anymore
Do you?

I just wonder
Do you ever
Think of me
Anymore
Do you?

I just wonder
Do you ever
Think of me
Anymore
Do you?

Yeah, yeah, yeah

(I miss you, I miss you)
Hello there, the angel from my nightmare
The shadow in the background of the morgue
The unsuspecting victim of darkness in the valley
We can live like Jack and Sally if we want
Where you can always find me
We’ll have Halloween on Christmas
And in the night we’ll wish this never ends
We’ll wish this never ends

(I miss you, I miss you)
(I miss you, I miss you)

Where are you and I’m so sorry
I cannot sleep I cannot dream tonight
I need somebody and always
This sick strange darkness
Comes creeping on so haunting every time
And as I stared I counted
Webs from all the spiders
Catching things and eating their insides
Like indecision to call you
and hear your voice of treason
Will you come home and stop this pain tonight
Stop this pain tonight

Don’t waste your time on me you’re already
The voice inside my head (I miss you, I miss you)
Don’t waste your time on me you’re already
The voice inside my head (I miss you, I miss you)
[x3]

(I miss you, I miss you) [x4]

It’s just the cutest thing
When you get to fussing (cussing)
Yelling and throwing things
I just wanna eat you up
I don’t mean no disrespect
When I start staring
Knowing that it makes you madder (uh, oh)
I’m sorry but seeing you mad is so sexy

[Hook]
Could it be the little wrinkle over your nose
When you make your angry face
That makes me wanna just take off all your clothes
And sex you all over the place
Could it be the lil’ way you storm around
That makes me wanna tear you down
Baby, I ain’t sure, but one thing that I do know is

[Chorus]
Every time you scream at me
I wanna kiss you
Baby when you put your hands on me
I wanna touch you
And when we get to arguing
Just gotta kiss you
Baby, I don’t know why it’s like that
But you’re just so damn sexy
When you’re mad

Baby, don’t think I don’t take you seriously
But I just can’t help the fact that your attitude excites me (so exciting)
And you know ain’t nothing better
Then when we get
Mad together and have angry sex (I’ll blow you out)
Then we forget what we were mad about

[Hook]
Could it be the little wrinkle over your nose
When you make your angry face
That makes me wanna just take off all your clothes
And sex you all over the place
Could it be the lil’ way you storm around
That makes me wanna tear you down
Baby, I’m not sure, but one thing that I do know is

[Chorus 2x]
Every time you scream at me
I wanna kiss you
Baby when you put your hands on me
I wanna touch you
And when we get to arguing
Just gotta kiss you
Baby, I don’t know why it’s like that
But you’re just so damn sexy

Every time you scream at me
I wanna kiss you
Baby when you put your hands on me
I wanna touch you
And when we get to arguing
Just gotta kiss you
Baby, I don’t know why it’s like that
But you’re just so damn sexy
When you’re mad

I heard a voice through the discord”
Of a deluge of passersby.
I saw one gaze frozen in time
Watching me passing by.

I swear I’ll know your face in the crowd,
And I’ll hear your voice so loud
When you’re whispering…

Hey unfaithful I will teach you
To be stronger, to be stronger.
Hey ungraceful I will teach you
To forgive one another.

Here’s my kiss to betray
Desperate to brush the lips of grace.
Do you feel hollow when you think of how I’ve lied?

Oh sweet angel of mercy with your grace like the morning
Wrap your loving arms around me.
Oh sweet angel of mercy with your grace like the morning
Wrap your loving arms around me.

Hey unfaithful I will teach you
To be stronger, to be stronger.
Hey ungraceful I will teach you
To forgive one another.

Hey unfaithful I will teach you
To be stronger, to be stronger.

Hey unloving

I will love you

Jesus I’m ready to come home.
