There's red lights on boulevards 00:07
And stop signs on highways 00:11
There's desert sands and oceans 00:15
Ain't nothin' goin' my way 00:19
And I say 00:23
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh 00:24
I'm going where the wind blows 00:27
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh 00:31
Lost souls on Melrose 00:35
It feels like everything is changin' 00:39
Thought I was blind but I was just in the dark 00:42
You change your aura just to fit in 00:46
It ain't your business to be changing the stars 00:50
If there ain't nothin' in it for me 00:54
What we got in common? 00:57
If the world is crashing and falling down then we dancin' on a comet 00:59

Stuck in a room where the quiet gets louder 01:35
Wrong or right, don't exist where I'm from 01:38

[English]
There's red lights on boulevards
And stop signs on highways
There's desert sands and oceans
Ain't nothin' goin' my way
And I say
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
I'm going where the wind blows
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
Lost souls on Melrose
It feels like everything is changin'
Thought I was blind but I was just in the dark
You change your aura just to fit in
It ain't your business to be changing the stars
If there ain't nothin' in it for me
What we got in common?
If the world is crashing and falling down then we dancin' on a comet
How we California caked up?
But worried 'bout a paystub
Not thinking 'bout the outcome before you jump in
And I say
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
I'm going where the wind blows
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
Lost souls on Melrose
I, I, I, I done things that I'm not proud of
Born just to sin, nothing you can talk me out of
Stuck in a room where the quiet gets louder
Wrong or right, don't exist where I'm from
So I say
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
I'm going where the wind blows
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
Lost souls on Melrose
...
There's red lights on boulevards
And stop signs on highways
