California Numb

I never get to bed

‘Cause the city's too loud, loud

And it can break the bank

And run you out of town, town

I'm just a face in the crowd

We took a life for a ride

I'm California numb, damaged by the sun

If you could only see me now

You could hear the punchline

That I don't like my face

Or how I'm turning out

How I'm turning out

How I'm turning

I can't get over my head, how I'm turning

How I'm turning out

They said change your name

It's the price you paid down

And I don't want a handout

Hey, hey

She's a beautiful waste

And I will be afraid now

Maybe it'll work out

Hey, hey

Just a face in the crowd

We took a life for a ride

I'm California numb, I'm damaged by the sun

If you could only see me now

You could hear the punchline

That I don't like my face

Or how I'm turning out

How I'm turning out

How I'm turning

I can't get over my head, how I'm turning

How I'm turning out

At nights, I'm still awake

And, no, it's never gonna rain

To wash the streets clean of blood

Played you the jury and the judge

And all I wanted was a taste

And nothing's ever worth the wait

Will I ever get that flight?

I thought I was only staying for the night

I am in over my head

Or how I'm turning

No, I don't like my face

Or how I'm turning out

How I'm turning out

How I'm turning

I can't get over my head

How I'm turning out

How I'm turning out
