Grimes - Life in the Vivid Dream (cover)

Ok, this is very lo-fi and a bit deranged, but I hope you like my folk-ish cover of Grimes' California

Here are the lyrics

This, this music makes me cry
 It sounds just like my soul, oh
 Oh I'm not ready to win
 Oh lord cause I don't wanna know what they say
 Cause I get carried away
 Commodifying all the pain

 The things they see in me, I cannot see myself
 When you get bored of me, I'll be back on the shelf
 And when the ocean rises up above the ground
 Baby I'll drown in...

 California
 You only like me when you think I'm looking sad
 California
 I didn't think you'd end up treating me so bad

 Oh, I, I, I
 Come Monday, it's a dream
 Oh, I, I, I
 Broken my own heart again
 Chasing something beautiful
 Oh, but I don't understand what they say
 Cause I get carried away
 Commodifying all the pain

 The things they see in me, I cannot see myself
 When you get bored of me, I'll be back on the shelf
 And when the ocean rises up above the ground
 Baby I'll drown in...

 California
 You only like me when you think I'm looking sad
 California
 I didn't think you'd end up treating me so bad
 California
 You only like me when you think I'm looking sad
 California
 I didn't think you'd end up treating me so bad
