Back Pedal - Take Cover

God only knows

Why all the things I love keep me up ‘til 3am

All the poison I put in my blood is messing with my head

4pm on the bathroom floor again

Is this where I live?

Am I losing it?

Well I should be paying rent

For all the times I crash in this apartment

Whose is it anyway?

And how did I end up here?

God only knows

Why all the things I love keep me up ‘til 3am

All the poison I put in my blood is messing with my head

I wanna go to California

Get the fuck out before I lose all motivation

To do anything

Other than running in circles that don’t ever get me anywhere

I open my big mouth

I open my big mouth but I’m still here

In this town, they don’t take «no» for an answer

All my good friends tell me to relax

«Smile and take a seat, have another drink»

I should be paying rent with all the cash I spent

On booze and cigarettes

When I know better

How did I end up here?

I guess I’m just a sucker for the flashing neon lights

They leave me bruised

I’m turning black and blue

God only knows

Why all the things I love keep me up ‘til 3am

All the poison I put in my blood is messing with my head

I wanna go to California

Get the fuck out before I lose all motivation

To do anything

Other than running in circles that don’t ever get me anywhere

I always talk talk talk

But I never back it up

Talk talk talk

But I never back it up

I’m tired of living my life face-down on the floor

God only knows why all the things I love keep me up ‘til 3am

All the poison I put in my blood is messing with my head

I wanna go to California

Get the fuck out before I lose all motivation

To do anything

Other than running in circles that don’t ever get me anywhere

I wanna go to California

(California, California)

I wanna go to California

(California, California)

I opened my big mouth

I opened my big mouth

But I’m still here
