What The Coast Showed Me Lyrics by Conner O’Kane

Grasping At Air

2020

[instrumental]
[verse 1]
I'm just a midwestern boy
No the coast don't treat me quite too kindly, no
I couldn't sleep on the plane
Man it felt like a season finale, the end of the road
[bridge]
Fancy homes, expensive clothes
My own worth was out of the scope
Oh dear, will I ever amount to more or compare?
I implore
[Chorus]
Why it feels so good to be in L.A
But it makes me question if I'm really okay
To go on, just move along
The coast showed me that I'm small and alone
[verse 2]
It's 4am and I'm wasted
I want to go home and crawl beneath the covers
An artifact from a past life
Awakens in me the fear of starting over
Walking a new stretch of land
Makes you see how small your slice of the world really is
Part of me yearns for the pie
While the rest digs deep, my roots stretch a mile wide
[bridge]
Fancy homes, expensive clothes
My own worth was out of the scope
Oh dear, will I ever amount to more or compare?
I implore
[Chorus]
Why it feels so good to be in L.A
But it makes me question if I'm really okay
To go on, just move along
The coast showed me that I'm small and alone
[instrumental outro]
