Lyrics

[Verse 1] I spend the afternoon in cars I sit in traffic jams for hours Don't push me, I am not okay [Verse 2] The sky is blue most every day The lemons grow like tumors, they— Are tiny suns infused with sour [Chorus] Lonely as a cloud In the Golden State The coldest winter that I ever saw Was the summer that I spent [Verse 3] The only substance is the fog And it hides all that has gone wrong Can't see a thing inside the maze [Verse 4] There is a bridge adored and famed The Golden spine of engineering Whose back is heavy with my weight [Chorus] Lonely as a cloud In the Golden State The coldest winter that I ever saw Was the summer that I spent [Bridge 1] Be still this old heart Be still this old skin Drink your last drink Sin your last sin Sing your last song About the beginning Sing it out loud So the people can hear, let's go [Guitar Solo] [Bridge 2] Be still this sad day Be still this sad year Hope your last hope Fear your last fear You're not the only one You're not the only one You're not the only one You're not the only one, let's go [Guitar Solo] [Verse 5] My falling shape will draw a line Between the blue of sea and sky I'm not a bird, I'm not a plane [Verse 6] I took a taxi to the Gate I will not go to school again Four seconds was the longest wait [Outro] Four seconds was the longest wait Four seconds was the longest wait Four seconds was the longest wait Four seconds was the longest
