Lyrics:

California, is the place to be
I should warn you, about the things I've seen
You don't fit in, you don't belong
Your so called friends, will all be gone

I believe, the things we say
Keep us deceived, they get in the way
We run around, we move to fast
That's the reason
Nothing lasts

[Chorus: ]
That's the reason
That's the reason
There can be no mistakin'
I want to know why, I'm so certain
Behind the curtain shakin'

I don't want to go out like this
'Cause everybody, with an angry fist
We take for granted, what's in our past
That's the reason
Nothing lasts

[Chorus: ]
Someone put it out to me
I want one more chance to believe
I want to run
Go stare into the sun
Watch the bay waves breakin'
The human race awaken
I want to know why, I'm so certain
Behind the curtain shakin', shakin'
