The song I chose to write my essay on is called "Breathe" written by the band, The Pardon. The song explains how California has lost its "dream" and the people and the situations that evolve in Southern California (written based on San Diego) are always make believe. The singer, Joe Miller, begins the song by talking to his girlfriend. He explains that she doesn't know half of what goes in San Diego, California. He has been living in California all his life and doesn't want his girlfriend to get hurt by California. Joe describes how is he is a wreck because of California and how he needs to get out of San Diego because California has lost its dream. I chose this song because in all honesty, it couldn't be a more honest song. Don't get me wrong, I love L.A. and will live here my whole life; but a majority of the people here have no sense of reality and the real world. My favorite line in the song is, " All the lonely people, that fall apart, right on time." The line represents the selfish ways that become habits for a lot of people who live in Southern California. Well, that is all for now. Check back for more blogs on the song and assignment.
