Killifornia:

Mass migration of civilization
To the state that has it all
Everything you could possibly ask for
Glorified, worshipped, and romanticized
Filled with people we all idolize
Filled to the tipping point with those we don't
Everyone can be someone until everyone is someone, and then everyone is no one
Home for everyone, everyone is welcome
Until there's no more room for welcoming and the only solution is abandoning
Abandonment because most can not afford an apartment
No home for those who were born into a part of it
"There be no shelter here"
No comfort, only fear
A land of opportunity but only if you have talent and beauty
No hope, No future, No hope, No future
Everyone comes for a source of income, overpopulation is the outcome
Get in line for the slice of pie
Once there's none left we're all taking bites out of each other's lives
What a sight to see when you can see the sadness in each other's eyes
While we cover it up with the California dream disguise
No home for me, So bittersweet
I miss my friends, and the Joshua trees
and all my dreams that never got to be

What If Things Change:

Day by day I have an increasing worry
What if my relationships with my friends all change
What if we're only ever online friends anymore
What if we only hang out once a year or even less
What if I never move back and we just drift apart
I know that because we can talk online that we'll still be friends for some time
Just like the online friends I've had for over 5 years
But what if we never get to have those times like we used to have
Going to each other's shows and doing stupid shit on weekends
Like going to Denny's at 3am
Or taking drives to Ontario or LA
What if I never move back? What if I never move back? What if I never move back? What if I never move back?
Will they all move out too? I know one of them already has
What if they don't come visit me, what if I can't afford to visit them?
What if we just never see each other again?
We have group chats, where I watch them all make plans without me, because I'm halfway across the country
I watch them all make plans without me
Because I'm halfway across the country
