Santa Monica by Everclear

I remember this song being popular back when I started really getting into rock music so it's a favorite just for that, let alone it's just a good song.

I am still livin' with your ghost

Lonely and dreamin' of the west coast

I don't wanna be your downtime

I don't wanna be your stupid game

With my big black boots and an old suitcase

I do believe I'll find myself a new place

I don't wanna be the bad guy

I don't wanna do your sleepwalk dance anymore

I just wanna see some palm trees

I will try and shake away this disease

We can live beside the ocean

Leave the fire behind

Swim out past the breakers

Watch the world die

We can live beside the ocean

Leave the fire behind

Swim out past the breakers

Watch the world die

I am still dreamin' of your face

Hungry and hollow for all the things you took away

I don't wanna be your good time

I don't wanna be your fallback crutch anymore

Walk right out into a brand new day

Insane and risin' in my own weird way

I don't wanna be the bad guy

I don't wanna do your sleepwalk dance anymore

I just wanna feel some sunshine

I just wanna find some place to be alone

Yeah watch the world die
