Lyrics

[Verse 1] Crowded everywhere, but I still feel lonely Everyone talks, they're full of bologna Where can I run that I haven't already? Hands start shakin' and my heart ain't steady They say love and grief are a package deal More you have, the more you feel I had a dream, but I tried to forget it What happened next, couldn't have guessed it [Chorus] I chased that dream all the way to Malibu Some unfinished business to attend to But I blamе myself, I don't blame you For leaving mе stranded In Malibu [Verse 2] You gave me a box full of darkness Left me standing barefoot and carless Take it all back, take it all back to zero Used to be a loser, but now I'm a hero Climbed the stairs 'til I got to the bottom Grandpa always said, "Smoke 'em if you got 'em" Spent half my days drunk on pills or pot But I can't complain, 'cause I got a lot of [Chorus] Chased that dream all the way to Malibu Got some unfinished business to attend to But I blame myself, I don't blame you For leaving me stranded In Malibu [Bridge] California A good place to be But if you're gonna be stranded It's better than Tennessee [Chorus] Chased that dream all the way to Malibu With some unfinished business to attend to But I blame myself, I don't blame you For leaving me stranded In Malibu [Post-Chorus] Malibu (Malibu)
