California's beautiful I bet some people don't think so I take a lap around the hotel I take a picture of myself You changed your hair, you changed your name Your accent, people can't quite place Your second marriage, couple kids You say it isn't different, but it is I'm peaking through the bandages To see if I can handle it I hope I don't remember this I hope I don't forget again Endangered birds, the birthday girl Wasting wishes on this world Remember airplane bottles in our pockets Pissing on my only options Now you're rubbing rosebuds in between your wrists And I am an embarrassment Shirt and tie, like pulling teeth He's everything I'll never be I'm peaking through the bandages To see if I can handle it I hope I don't remember this I hope I don't forget again I hope I don't forget again I hope I don't forget again I hope I don't forget again
