Текст песни California (The Airborne Toxic Event) с переводом

Someday they’re gonna write about us

Living here in the shadow of this gathering dust

As the waves build up and drown the light

While we’re hanging from buildings on a Saturday night

And the words she said, I could barely hear

Over the blare of the speakers and the smell of beer

As she got up to speak, she lifted her dress

I remember her face, but I forget the rest

Here in California, I was

Just a name and a number

A face on a tumblr

Here in California, we’re all

Stuck in the same scene

All nightmares and daydreams

In California

She said, «I got money, but I got no friends»

As we drove through the Valley in her daddy’s Benz

She said, «These pills wear off, but the pain don’t end

I never thought it would matter so much to pretend»

And the thing about her that haunts me still

As her hands fell down to the steering wheel

And a shock of light fell across her face

She said, «There's only two ways out of this place»

Here in California, I was

Just a name and a number

A face on a tumblr

Here in California, we’re all

Stuck in the same scene

All nightmares and daydreams

In California

And oh, I hope it’s clear

There’s no room for us anymore in the atmosphere

But darling, I always liked

The desperation in your eyes

The way you’d dance in the glow

Of the Hollywood Freeway lights

Someday they’re gonna forget about us

And we’ll wonder if we were ever good enough

It hit me last night in this song I heard

I remember the feeling but forget all the words

Here in California, I was

Just a name and a number

A face on a tumblr

Here in California, we’re all

Stuck in the same scene

All nightmares and daydreams

In California

In California
