When I look into your eyes I feel further every time

But I see the roots that take

Put a shiver down my spine

I came here asking nothing

But I'm leaving with a list

I was born to believe

The truth is all there is

The pressure of the eyes could tie my tongue and leave me cut

If the mirror shows me weakness

I get wild with catching up

You won't find me running off my mouth like my old friends

I was born in California

And it never ends

There's a fire in the almost places

Leaves us nowhere else to go

If there's a fire in the almost places

You cannot complain if you don't throw a dice yourself

Sit outside the lines blame everybody else

I refuse to offer myself up to men who lie

Spit and sell and smirk

Out the corner of their eye

If there's a fire in the almost places

Leaves us nowhere else to go

If there's a fire in the almost places

Leaves us nowhere else to go

Don't leave the liars in the honest places

Don't leave a fire in the almost places

Leaves us nowhere else to go

Cause there's a fire in the almost places

Leaves us nowhere else to go

Don't leave the liars in the honest places
