I'm already ten years old
I can punch and I know how to run
And how to doubt an adult
I'm already ten years old
I have a room and a bed in there
I've started waking up
It's hard to concentrate and run after a ball
When polar bears are drowning on morning TV
And mom and dad have somehow become quiet
With clouds over their heads just like in comics
Will I ever see California
Before it sinks into the sea
Will I ever see California
Before all of this falls apart
Into our hands
And we fully disappear
I'm already ten years old
Elephants on my sheets
I think about death a lot
I'm already ten years old
Still a burden to my mother for a long time
She has other things to worry about
I guess I'm too weak
That miserable weirdo
Those sentences said by the gym teacher are stuck in my head
And through the night the globe
light is on on the nightstand
I guess the goblins from nightmares have grown with me
Will I ever see California
Before it sinks to the sea
Will I ever see California
Before all of this falls apart
Into our hands
And we fully disappear
If even the Earth's plates move, what can we trust in
Mom, if even the Earth's plates move, then what awaits us
Will I ever see California
Before it sinks to the sea
Will I ever see California
Before all of this falls apart
Will I ever see California
Will I ever see California
Before all of this falls apart
Into our hands
And we fully disappear
