The Last Days of Tranquility Lyrics by Great Apes

California Heart

0

I’m cutting class today
I can’t stand the insults or the masquerade
180 east up to the trees
I’ve got my pen and my Parliaments
Anything to drown out the dissonance
The hush of mountain air is what I need
Through the valley of pesticide and haze
Where the palms choke and the cattle they graze
Down there they’re all swarming
But I’ll just keep ignoring
The surge of selfishness and sin
Out there beyond the peaks
It’s all so fucking bleak
Alone is the only place I fit in
On thе edge of Redwood Ovеrlook
I press my pleas into an empty book
A hawk replies suspended over cliffs
I write for the eyes of empathy
For wild love and tranquility
The wind pulls my words to the abyss
Beneath a blanket of branches and sky
Where the creeks speak and the ache it subsides
Down there they’re all swarming
But I’ll just keep ignoring
The surge of selfishness and sin
Out there beyond the peaks
It’s all so fucking bleak
Alone is the only place I fit in
When the sun sinks towards the sea
It will drag me unwillingly
Back to the city of dust and drones
Where the crickets of Tulare Street
Lament in the summer heat
I’ll be back before dad gets home
