American Dream

When I'm alone I'm living here
I'm living inside my head
I close my eyes, I'm waking up and baby, its all the same
My bloodshot eyes are burning up
And I feel cities away, way, way, wait

Did I sell out when I split up with the suburbian dream?
'Cause everything is coming roses but it's not what it seems
Am I a criminal for living?
I just wanna be free, free, free

They say come to America
It's everything they promise ya
Build a big house by the sea
Put a filter on reality

When you're in America
Delusions, they will carry us
Another night spent by the beach
Sitting here getting cold feet
Is there another place to be?

I think I'm losing track of everything I wanted to be
I saw it clearly, oh, but recently it's so hard to see
If I'm just changing with the times or are the time's changing me
Oh, no, please

'Cause when I'm looking in the mirror I question everything
Compare myself to all these faces and walls caving right in
The glass is breaking my reflections getting tired of it
I'm getting tired, I'm getting tired

They say come to America
It's everything they promise ya
Build a big house by the sea
Put a filter on reality

When you're in America
Delusions, they will carry us
Another night spent by the beach
Sitting here getting cold feet
Is there another place to be?

When I'm alone I'm living here
I'm living inside my head, head, head, head
I'm living in America
I'm living in America

Living in America
