American Made

I like old American things that don't break down
Like me, that's what he always says
Once in a while you'll have something to write home about
A job, maybe a regret
Oh woe is me to see what I have seen
Bursting with empathy
Oh woe is me to see what I have seen

I know there's more to life
Then breaking my back for you
I should have seen the signs
It's all that I had, all that I had to lose

And oh, I get tired
But hey they just don't make them anymore, like they used to

I was somewhere in the middle, when you gave me space
Gave me time to think about a change of pace
I was looking for revival in a holy place
Holding on to another vision

I know there's more to life
Then breaking my back, breaking my back for you
I should have seen the signs
It's all that I had, all that I had to lose

And oh, I get tired
Lord you know I tried
But hey they just don't make them anymore, like they used to

I've been lookin' for a sign to bring me to the light
I'm fading in and out of you
Never thought we would get this far, but here we are
I've been lookin' for a sign to bring me to the light
I'm fading in and out of you
Never thought we would get this far, I'm breaking away
