Only in America
To be young, to be numb
When did we all become
So removed, so unmoved
Watch my friends, destroy their brains
And I guess, I can't blame them
What's left to lose, to choose
We can keep on talking, but it's not enough
'Cause the world moves fast when we don't look up
Hold it too tight and it might just slip away, away
Let's wake up, from this dream
This false reality we've been seeing
'Cause once you open up your eyes, it's not hard to realize
We all exist on the same plane, we're all connected in the same way
Not only in America, not only in America
To be young, to be numb
We won't let ourselves become
Let's break through, me and you
We can keep on talking, but it's not enough
'Cause the world moves fast when we don't look up
Hold it too tight and it might just slip away, away
Let's wake up, from this dream
This false reality we've been seeing
'Cause once you open up your eyes, it's not hard to realize
We all exist on the same plane, we're all connected in the same way
Not only in America, not only in America
When did we all become
So removed, so unmoved
Watch my friends, destroy their brains
And I guess, I can't blame them
What's left to lose, to choose
We can keep on talking, but it's not enough
'Cause the world moves fast when we don't look up
Hold it too tight and it might just slip away, away
Let's wake up, from this dream
This false reality we've been seeing
'Cause once you open up your eyes, it's not hard to realize
We all exist on the same plane, we're all connected in the same way
Not only in America, not only in America
To be young, to be numb
We won't let ourselves become
Let's break through, me and you
We can keep on talking, but it's not enough
'Cause the world moves fast when we don't look up
Hold it too tight and it might just slip away, away
Let's wake up, from this dream
This false reality we've been seeing
'Cause once you open up your eyes, it's not hard to realize
We all exist on the same plane, we're all connected in the same way
Not only in America, not only in America
