Description
Written on a beach in San Francisco, this song is very much about escape and wanting what you can't have. I like to think of this song in the same light as "Today" by the Smashing Pumpkins. On the very surface, the song sounds very positive, but there is a darkness that seems to linger underneath it all. Album Cover Photo by Brian Wolfe www.flickr.com/photos/mightyboybrian
Lyrics
Verse 1: Let's go west and watch the sun set on our past lives Twenty Four seems too young to die The tide will wash our cares away Let's go west and play the sound of a new life Chorus: From those wasted days to the Ann Arbor nights I wanna show you true love is real I'll take your hand if you'll put it in mine I want you to show me true love is real Verse 2: I want to breath the salty air California or the edge of the world Face down in a blanket of sea foam Washed up after I drown
