“This song was written towards the end of my time in Topanga Canyon. I wanted to have something on the album with a real California flavor that spoke to the throwback qualities of living in the canyon. I remember going into the session with Kevin and Sam w...
[Verse 1]
The sun ran out on a cold October
Somewhere under the canyon moon
Camera jammed in a slow exposure
California in her rear view
[Verse 2]
She couldn't handle another season
Another ocean of fiction blue
Said a prayer to a dashboard Jesus
Death Valley and worn out shoes
[Pre-Chorus]
Then the road turned into desert everywhere
The sun ran out on a cold October
She disappeared, she disappeared
[Chorus]
Take all your troubles, put them to bed
Burn down the mission, the maps in your head
Shot like a bullet, don't know the way
The ricochet, kind of got away from you (you)
[Verse 3]
The leaves are falling, the church bells ringing
Marching band in a high school dream
Little town and a faded beauty
They still remember when she was queen
[Pre-Chorus]
Then the road turned into desert everywhere
The leaves are falling, the church bells ringing
She disappeared, she disappeared
[Chorus]
Take all your troubles, put them to bed
Burn down the mission, the maps in your head
Shot like a bullet, don't know the way
The ricochet, kind of got away from you (you)
[Bridge]
The sun ran out on a cold October
And where she ended up, no one knew
[Chorus]
Take all your troubles, put them to bed
Burn down the mission, the maps in your head
Shot like a bullet, don't know the way
The ricochet
Take all your troubles, put them to bed
Burn down the mission, the maps in your head
Shot like a bullet, don't know the way
The ricochet, kind of got away from you
