[Verse 1]
Heard you were an author
When it's just dictation
Why even bother?
You're a happy little patient

[Verse 2]
Grey gets colder
'Til your heart gives over
You don't wanna wake up
Cause to wake up is to face her

[Chorus]
So you turned against the tide
You wound up where the forces collide
There's a million forms of life
You lucked out like a California bride

[Verse 3]
You're better off chomping
Into the belly of a mountain
Where the level is a constant
Where your heart can't function

[Chorus]
So you turned against the tide
You wound up where the forces collide
There's a million forms of life
You lucked out like a California bride
[Bridge]
You know you're never gonna find love
It's impossible to hold up
You know you're never gonna find love
You gotta take your chances, babe
Or you're never gonna find love

[Chorus]
So you turned against the tide
You wound up where the forces collide
There's a million forms of life
You lucked out like a California bride
