Lyrics Jackie Greene

Jackie Greene

Shaken

California, is the place to be

I should warn you, about the things I've seen

You don't fit in, you don't belong

Your so called friends, will all be gone

I believe, the things we say

Keep us deceived, they get in the way

We run around, we move to fast

That's the reason

Nothing lasts

[Chorus: ]

That's the reason

That's the reason

There can be no mistakin'

I want to know why, I'm so certain

Behind the curtain shakin'

I don't want to go out like this

'Cause everybody, with an angry fist

We take for granted, what's in our past

That's the reason

Nothing lasts

[Chorus: ]

Someone put it out to me

I want one more chance to believe

I want to run

Go stare into the sun

Watch the bay waves breakin'

The human race awaken

I want to know why, I'm so certain

Behind the curtain shakin', shakin'
