California Bound Lyrics
You're miles away
You just can't relate
Are you what surrounds you
You feel alive
At least you think that life is something in you
What do we know
There's a southern bound train tomorrow
Takes us out of this dirty town
Chase the sun back to the west coast
In eight hours we're california bound
We're california bound
You got butterflies
Well so do I
Just pretend that they're not there
We can only rely on ourselves like every time
It's just a new plan
What do we know
There's a southern bound train tomorrow
Takes us out of this dirty town
Chase the sun back to the west coast
In eight hours we're california bound
We're california bound
We're california bound
You look so brave with the sun in your face
Just gotta believe me
Why don't we go
There's a southern bound train tomorrow
Takes us out of this dirty town
Chase the sun back to the west coast
In eight hours
Oh
Oh
Oh
Forget everything tomorrow
We'll be on a brand new road
Chasing the sun back to the west coast
In eight hours we're california bound
(Ah)
We're california bound
(Bound)
We're california bound
We're california bound
You just can't relate
Are you what surrounds you
At least you think that life is something in you
What do we know
Takes us out of this dirty town
Chase the sun back to the west coast
In eight hours we're california bound
We're california bound
Well so do I
Just pretend that they're not there
It's just a new plan
What do we know
Takes us out of this dirty town
Chase the sun back to the west coast
In eight hours we're california bound
We're california bound
We're california bound
Just gotta believe me
Why don't we go
Takes us out of this dirty town
Chase the sun back to the west coast
In eight hours
Oh
Oh
Oh
We'll be on a brand new road
Chasing the sun back to the west coast
In eight hours we're california bound
(Ah)
We're california bound
(Bound)
We're california bound
We're california bound

I think this song is somewhat autobiographical. The lead singer, Chad Wolf, is originally from South Carolina and moved to LA to make music. But in a broader sense, it's just about leaving behind what you know and are familiar with, and moving forward in search of brighter opportunities.
Such an amazing song. Best song on the album.
