Through the sunglasses The Palm trees look like ladders to heaven But the scars on the pavement are proof of fallen angels And all of her mixtapes are empty She hasn't found them that's all dead She reaches her porcelain fingers out And counts to ten Singing (Lalalalalala) It can't be far from California (Lalalalalala) Wake me up when the sun sets over (Wake me up in, wake me up in California) Well there aren't enough facades To cover the bloody backlots For if she tries she knows she'll find the sweet in the Cigarette Let me tell her her smile so wide They tell her body's alright So she holds on a little longer ‘Till the drink and the lullaby (Lalalalalala) It can't be far from California (Lalalalalala) Wake me up when the sun sets over (Lalalalalala) No, it can't be far from California (Lalalalalala) Wake me up when the dream is over When the dream is over Now she hides on the subway lines ‘Cause her parents never call at night She finally found a song to sing But it isn't what she likes ‘Cause they nailed her arms to the bed And force fed her sugar and ripped off her dress Singing (Lalalalalalala) Do you feel beautiful yet? Do you feel beautiful yet? Do you feel beautiful yet? (Lalalalalala) We're not that far from California (Lalalalalala) Wake me up when the sun sets over (Lalalalalala) No, it can't be far from California (Lalalalalala) Wake me up when the dream is over It can't be far from California Wake me up when the sun sets over (Wake me up in, wake me up in california)
