Cold War Kids - Santa Ana Winds Lyrics






I got the roof tied tight
Shiny buildings peak
The LA river swims
Snorkels and knees

Seatbelt sticks in the poison heat
My pores are opening

Making headlines again
Santa Anna Winds
Making headlines again
Santa headlines

Take the elevator to the Getty's highest place
See the cliffs fall to the sea
Do an about face

Easter on Olvera Street
Girls nursing new babies in alleyways
In between is a basin like the great divide
Where the 110 swallow the 105
Chutes and ladders leaving no where I begun
Like Joan Didion

Making headlines again
Santa Anna Winds
Making headlines again
Santa Anna Winds
Making headlines again
Santa Anna Winds
Making headlines again
Santa Anna Winds

You tore me up by the roots and fell silent again
My seeds have blown around but never land
You tore me up by the roots and fell silent again
My seeds have blown around but never land

    No, no. This was a fine album. I'm talking about the NEW album, Mine is Yours. The one where they gave up their unique kick-in-the-face-fucking-awesome sound to sound more like Kings of Leon.

    Unfortunately, I'm going to have to say the new album is the same garbage you can hear on any mainstream radio station that also plays Katy Perry and Nickleback.
    At least we can still remember the release of their other albums?

  23. A.... ....

    fucking amazing song! ♥

  24. b.... ....

    A man crapping in his back garden into a bucket should have this many views. This song needs at least more than 100,000 to be called enough views.
