The Golden State

California is burning like a cigarette
Let me burn with you
I can tell your heart is a forest
And it hasnʼt rained here in years
Then I came around and the whole place caught on fire
And I left you here
California is burning like a cigarette; flick the ash into the sea
California is burning, the whole stateʼs gonna fall in
If you donʼt stop fallin for me
The sky is dark tonight in this town
All the stars are in bed or on the ground
The whole world watching, to see what they will do
They ignored all the warnings, but so did you
California is burning like a cigarette; flick the ash into the sea
California is burning, the whole stateʼs gonna fall in
If you donʼt stop fallin for me
They live in fear, cause the whole land is plastic
Youʼll drown in tears, but Iʼm already passed it
California is burning, the whole stateʼs gonna fall in
If you donʼt stop fallin for me
California
If you donʼt stop fallin
If you donʼt stop fallin
If you donʼt stop fallin for me
I will burn with you when I return you
