American Dreaming Lyrics

Dial tones of long lost ghosts

I dreamt about when I was eight years old

Dreaming only lasts

For as long as you realize

That your eyes are shut

So never open them up

You'll find a world

You never were a part of

When you're born an American man

No one will ever understand

Raised on hope in the U.S. Of lies

Empty promises catch up every time

You played your part

I'll play mine

It all seems better in my head

Yeah, the American dream is dead

Cause dreaming only lasts

For as long as you compromise

And keep your eyes shut

And never open them up

You'll find a world

You never were a part of

When you're born an American man

No one will ever understand

Raised on hope in the U.S. Of lies

Empty promises catch up every time

You played your part

I'll play mine

It's another American dreaming

Dreaming of another America

Another American dreaming

Dreaming of another America

When you're born an American man

No one will ever understand

Raised on hope in the U.S. Of lies

Empty promises catch up every time

You played your part

I'll play mine
