Awake at ground zero
another day wasting away
Nothing seems to matter,
cuz nothing's ever changed!
California dreamin'
has never meant that much to me,
when living in this nightmare comes so easily!

Holding on,
when I don't belong
If this is right,
then I can't go on
Holding on,
when I know right now I'll never make it

Maybe I'll wake up tomorrow,
and figure out where to begin,
maybe I wont feel so hollow,
but I'm pretty sure that I'll be sleepin in

Days seem like they're decades,
and minutes past like years gone by
And still I sit here wasting,
the time of my life
California dreamin will never mean that much to me,
and you'll never understand,
how I feel to be

Holding on,
when you don't belong,
when you don't feel right,
but it's all you've got
Holding on,
when I'm pretty sure I'll never make it!

Maybe I'll wake up tomorrow,
and figure out where to begin,
mabye I won't feel so hollow

It's three AM,
and it feels like these four walls are caving in,
please tell me I'm not alone
Cuz I'm tired of sleeping in

Maybe I'll wake up tomorrow,
and figure out where to begin,
maybe I wont feel so hollow,
but I'm pretty sure that I'll be sleepin in
