American Dream
Wake up my soul from your American Dream
You've been asleep and dying slowly
A house, a job, some friends, your own family
False security; you don't own the breath you breathe
Oooo, oooo
That money in your wallet can't buy you time
Another life, but you can save it all you like
You don't see what you have, just what you have to get
Material success; the pursuit of happiness
Oooo, oooo
Racing down the highway I am sobered by the truth
To live is Christ, but somehow I've completely missed that view
God, to be poor, to suffer, or to die is what I'd choose
If I get more of you
Mmmm, mmmm
But my soul if you're just fine, don't listen to me
Go back to sleep, keep living the dream
You've been asleep and dying slowly
A house, a job, some friends, your own family
False security; you don't own the breath you breathe
Oooo, oooo
That money in your wallet can't buy you time
Another life, but you can save it all you like
You don't see what you have, just what you have to get
Material success; the pursuit of happiness
Oooo, oooo
Racing down the highway I am sobered by the truth
To live is Christ, but somehow I've completely missed that view
God, to be poor, to suffer, or to die is what I'd choose
If I get more of you
Mmmm, mmmm
But my soul if you're just fine, don't listen to me
Go back to sleep, keep living the dream
