Withered Hand - California [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
After the longest night
Stepping out into a new daylight
Beer ice cold in my hand
Like I'm on my way
Like I had plenty not to talk about
Stop in for a burger at the In-n-Out
Waiting in line for the prophecy
How we took our turn to be strung out like some powder in a bag of skin
Last night I coulda sworn I was dying
Cicadas singing at my window
Signs proclaim the end is nigh
But not tonight

[Chorus]
In California
I keep sippin on the tussin like I'm sick again
Ooh white light white heat all night heart beating in my chest like a kettle drum
California
I keep sippin on the tussin like I'm sick again
Ooh white light white heat all night heart beating in my chest like a jackhammer


[Verse 2]
What of the unfinished symphonies, the immigration infamies
My head rings like the liberty bell
Sweating like a winner on a hot day
Sinner say what, say you nothing if you’ve nothing to sell
Every time I open up my mealy mouth
This tiny wee sound comes out and I’m spitting it out into the doubt
I hear my heart like a back-beat
Like something incomplete, no midnight choir
No love over desire

[Chorus]
In California
I keep sippin on the tussin like I'm sick again
Ooh white light white heat all night heart beating in my chest like a kettle drum
California
I keep sippin on the tussin like I'm sick again
Ooh white light white heat all night heart beating in my chest like a jackhammer

California
I keep sippin on the tussin like I'm sick again
Ooh white light white heat all night heart beating in my chest like a kettle drum
California
I keep sippin on the tussin like I'm sick again
Ooh white light white heat all night heart beating in my chest like a jackhammer
