Spitfire wild child with no sense of rules
Lost in my mind and thrown to the wolves
Soft skin red cheeks and eyes just like jewels
That pierce through night
Raised on my own, a child of the blade
Born meant to fight a violent crusade
Naive and manic, deadly night shade
I long to be loved

Sweet tortured soul
Addicted to the neon lights
In love with the whole world
California baby, how'd my heart get so cold?
Grew up in the sunshine, died young before I grew old

Buried too young in all of my thoughts
Dug myself out connecting the dots
Perilous fights I've lost and I've won
While chasing the stars
Sweet swan songs rock me softly to sleep
No time to rest until I'm 6 deep
Dressed up my demons come to collect
A price to stay quiet

Sweet tortured soul
Addicted to the neon lights
In love with the whole world
California baby, how'd my heart get so cold?
Grew up in the sunshine, died young before I grew old

Don't tell my mother I'm leaving
Please call my baby I need him
I'll disappear in the sunrise
Bleed out for me don't cry
Bleed out in the sunshine

Sweet tortured soul
Addicted to the neon lights
In love with the whole world
California baby, how'd my heart get so cold?
Grew up in the sunshine, died young before I grew old
