Around here broken hearts get traded
Tainted in blood but we love the taste
Drained on the inside, not a single dropped wasted
Replaced by tomorrow night's mistake
You go through men like cheap motels
Along this crowded highway from hell
Oh, they know
Yes, they know
Your mascara runs marathons
What are you chasing? I can't tell
She came and went like California rain
Make up stains running down my shirt
Long gone but nothing left the same
A beautiful mess of memories filled with dirt
I hate the drought but can live without the pain
She came and went like California rain
Around here the clouds are overdue
Sunny places but this crowd of faces
Is filled with doom
Like morning sun covers dew
We're so done but there are traces left of you
Leave the comfort that you've known so well
What are you running from? You won't tell
She came and went like California rain
Make up stains running down my shirt
Long gone but nothing left the same
A beautiful mess of memories filled with dirt
I hate the drought but can live without the pain
She came and went like California rain
