Southern Californian accents
And a bit of self dread
A long drive to forget
And a bit of revenge
I think I'm losing my religion
I think your head is a bit empty
Some of our hearts can say the same thing
In their Californian accents

Call me in the morning I'll answer
If the morning comes at all
Keep my pictures in the basement
I'll keep yours hanging in the hall
I'm in line to stay persistent
You're in the back of his mind
You're nothing more than a pristine picture
I'm nothing less than wasted time

Nice cars and fancy bars
L.A. nights to satisfy
Things I didn't give to you
Weight gain and soft thighs
Empty bottles on the floor
Things you've never seen before
Making love and casual hook ups
Different strokes and lover boys

Call me in the morning I'll answer
If the morning comes at all
Keep my pictures in the basement
I'll keep yours hanging in the hall
I'm in line to stay persistent
You're in the back of his mind
You're nothing more than a pristine picture
I'm nothing less than wasted time

Cocaine comedowns and spare change
Brand new Chucks and greaser gangs
Cell phone calls and Venice waves
Indica and wine induced haze
Lonely daughters, broken homes
Where the hell did daddy go?
Engagement rings and substantial hate
Sailor Jerry and movie dates

Call me in the morning I'll  answer
If the morning comes at all
Keep my pictures in the basement
I'll keep yours hanging in the hall
I'm in line to stay persistent
You're in the back of his mind
You're nothing more than a pristine picture
I'm nothing less than wasted time

One more thing before you go
One more line before the show
One more breathe upon my own
One more secret left unknown
One more drink and one more song
One more drive into the sun
One last word and then a smile
One last smile and we'll be done

Call me in the morning I'll answer
If the morning comes at all
Keep my pictures in the basement
I'll keep yours hanging in the hall
I'm in line to stay persistent
You're in the back of their minds
You're nothing more than a pristine picture
And I guess I've wasted all this time
I'm sorry I wasted all your time

I'm sorry i wasted all your time.
