"It seemed like the world around me was truly becoming grim" - Marilyn Monroe Mezcal shot with a rattlesnake kick, Route 66 in a brand new whip, Just got back from a peyote trip, Changed the mood in the room, With the light of a wick, Her eyes smiled with the style, of a Hollywood starlet, Her lips screamed desire, In a candy apple scarlet, All the heads in the room, Turn to your arrival, Cameras flash as you dash, and they rush to see their idol, Champagne flows and egos are stroked, Gonna be huge, you all should be stoked, Always the last to be in on the joke, Superstar with very strong opinions, You play the part and people love their villains, They want you to bite but not inject your venom, Fire your weapon and say "You're Welcome", Her eyes smiled with the style, of a Hollywood starlet, Her lips screamed desire, In a candy apple scarlet, All the heads in the room, Turn to your arrival, Cameras flash as you dash, and they rush to see their idol, Champagne flows and egos are stroked, Gonna be huge you all should be stoked, Always the last to be in on the joke, They always tell you what you want to hear... Now watch as I turn and disappear, Let me make it perfectly clear, Now watch as I turn and disappear, All the heads in the room, Turn to your arrival, The cameras flash as you dash, and they rush to see their idol, Champagne flows and egos are stroked, Gonna be huge you all should be stoked, Always the last to be in on the joke, They always tell you what you want to hear...

See me fallin' in the deepest hole I've ever been in, Darkness now where there once was light, Gets me to the point where I dont know if I'll get out again, I gotta get out of here, Can you hear me loud and clear? I gotta get out, need to break out. See me fallin', See me hit the ground, See me fallin', You never wanted me, As much as I wanted you, We're breaking apart into pieces, As you watch what I will do, I put them in your pocket, To see if you'd make it whole again, It kept on beating until the end, The bitter end... the bitter end... bitter end You build it up just to break it, You take the time just to waste it, You want it all you can taste it, Now I'm alone, See me fallin', See me hit the ground, See me fallin', Still can't make a sound, See me fallin', You never wanted me, As much as I wanted you, We're breaking apart into pieces, As you watch what I will do, I put them in your pocket, To see if you'd make it whole again, It kept on beating until the end, The bitter end... tiny little pieces, the bitter end... bitter end

I can't sleep, Can't get you off my mind, Close my eyes and I'm drifting, To the brink of an altered state, Like a road with no destination, For the life of me I lie awake, I can't sleep, Can't get you off my mind, Count a million sheep, I'm afraid what I might find, Thoughts racing, tumbling around, inside me like a million caged animals, trying to break free, I wake and I'm alone, I wake and I hear the screams, I wonder where you are and if I'm in your dreams, I can't sleep, Can't get you off my mind, Count a million sheep, I'm afraid what I might find, Tossin' and turnin', Lying here waiting, I'm still hearing, What you're not saying, Never where you're supposed to be, Need you right here with me, I'm sleepwalking over the edge, I can't sleep, Can't get you off my mind, I close my eyes and I'm drifting, To the brink of an altered state, Like a road with no destination, For the life of me I lie awake, I can't sleep, Can't get you off my mind, Count a million sheep, I'm afraid what I might find, on the inside...

She drove a jet black Cadillac to church on Sunday, Won't realize her dreams, gets high on Monday, Dirty deeds done cheap Tuesday thru Friday, and it all goes away when I see you, On Saturday, On Saturday, She's got a job at the club and yeah its good money, But it ain't worth a thing if she's someone else's bunny, I don't even know the language that you're speaking, There's always new drama weekly, She drove a jet black Cadillac to church on Sunday, Won't realize her dreams, gets high on Monday, Dirty deeds done cheap Tuesday thru Friday, and it all goes away when I see you, On Saturday, On Saturday, Blondes have more fun and she's out to prove it, Live fast die young there's nothing to it, But she was so wrong, Had to live to hear me sing her this song, She drove a jet black Cadillac to church on Sunday, Won't realize her dreams, gets high on Monday, Dirty deeds done cheap Tuesday thru Friday, and it all goes away when I see you, On Saturday, On Saturday, She's peelin' out, In a mean machine, Burnin' gasoline, solo She drove a jet black Cadillac to church on Sunday, Won't realize her dreams, gets high on Monday, Dirty deeds done cheap Tuesday thru Friday, and it all goes away when I see you, On Saturday, On Saturday, On Saturday, On Saturday,

Woke up late, Thought its a great day to go to the beach, Found myself one day closer to the things, that yesterday seemed so out of reach, Sun is shining so we put the top down, down, down, Smoked a joint and turned my head around, round, round, I'm out here on the West Coast livin' life, Happy to be getting it done and to just be alive, Makin' the most of my days, Seeing clearly through the purple haze, Just need a board to float away, Palm trees, sand and waves, I Woke up late, Thought its a great day to just be me, Found myself closer to the person, I always wanted to be, The sun is shining so we put the top down, down, down, Popped a cap and drank a cold one down, down, down, I'm out here on the West Coast livin' life, Happy to be getting it done and to just be alive, Makin' the most of my days, Seeing clearly through the smoky vape, Just need a bowl to float away, Palm trees, sand and waves, Palm trees, sand and waves 3x I'm out here on the Best Coast livin' life, Happy to be getting it done and to just be alive, Makin' the most of my days, Not trying to change my ways, Just need So Cal to float away, Palm trees, sand and waves 2x

I left the house at 4 a.m., Didn't know when I'd see home again, Darkness weighing on my mind, Yesterday's left behind, A sense of calm came over me, My mind was running free, Followed a treasure map, Somethin' buried in the sand, Traveler of foreign lands, Left the shore with empty hands, A sense of calm came over me, My mind was running free, 2x How many times I tried, To make it all work out and be the one, You counted on, How many times I cried, I couldn't see through the light shinin' over you, Left me feelin' blue, Not gonna worry about it, Not gonna give a thought to it, Not gonna let it change my thinkin', Not gonna cry about it, Not gonna lose sleep over it, Not gonna let you think you won, There can be only one... A sense of calm came over me, My mind was running free, (2x)

about

So Cal is the result of living the Southern California lifestyle in San Diego after relocating from the Midwest. It has 6 songs that I have worked on over the past year. I've always liked the beach and hanging around the ocean and some of these songs reflect that. Sunshine, sand, palm trees, waves, surfers, seagulls, convertibles and the scent of saltwater and herbs are all a few of my favorite things. This album is a good representation of where I am at in my life. Living it to the fullest while also keeping a laid back approach. So Cal...
