I want my name in the lights
I wanna swim in the sky
Be the only star at midnight
Before I knew it I was lost
I didn't count all the costs
Now I wonder if I'll ever even make it out alive ()
I've been chasing dreams
But they're chasing me
In this city of angels
I can't sleep
Cause I'm trading scars
For that concrete star
And I can't find the sunshine in California
I only wanted to be me
I had the best intentions
I was scattered in all directions
It was more than I could take
I would bend just to break
Falling apart wasn't ever my plan
But now I understand
I've been chasing dreams
But they're chasing me
In this city of angels
I can't sleep
Cause I'm trading scars
For that concrete star
And I can't find the sunshine in California
California
California
Guitar Solo
(verse 3)
I want my name in the lights
I wanna swim in the sky
Be the only star at midnight
I've been chasing dreams
But they're chasing me
In this city of angels
I can't sleep
Cause I'm trading scars
For that concrete star
And I can't find the sunshine in California
