Friends in California

by Riviera

It’s good to see you in the morning

The pale light shining through the window shade

A cool breeze blowing over features

Slowly showing age

You don?t remember how we got here

But I can tell you it was luck

The poison?s rising to the surface

Now I’ve had enough

I’ve got some friends in California

I think they’ll take us for a while

Just time enough to get our blood clean

And ease our minds

It doesn’t seem like seven years ago

But I can’t count it on one hand

That many years since we’ve had memories

To make or have

And now we’re living in a bad dream

And I can’t tell when we’re awake

We shout for money and for glory

Now it’s running late

Golden Lies

by Riviera

And you’re right I’ve had some time to decide

Taking sides to cry won’t make it right

So deny as much as you think will get by

Making light of life keeps you inside

And golden lies hover nearby

You said you’d cry, and you’re right

So you cry and sorrow helps keep you high

Making time on the side keeps you in sight

So I try to hold you when I’ve got no right

Oh, besides it’s time to let you inside
