American Dream

The times are changing and there's nowhere to runNow will answer to the things that were doneIn the night, we'll know just who to sendThe dogs are howling from the edge of the rainWhere someone said they had the right to complainSo they'll beg, or they'll burn, or they'll bandHow that everything that glitters is goldDown in the middle where we're bought orwe're soldGive me what I need not what I oweThe place I live is just a hole in the a wallAs for possession, I keep nothing at allI woke up sick from my American dreamThat's enough, not for usOur hearts are racing, we don't know who to trustThat's enough, not for usOur hearts are racing, we don't know who to trustNot my American dreamThe birds are flying and the kids are in jailWhile I'm here waiting for my ship to sailIn the north, we'll be just as we wereThe cars are screaming and the streetlights explodeIf I was you, I'd stay the hell of the roadIf your time to you is not your courseOh my goodness, Oh my woman in whiteMy eyes are fixed beyond the ghost in the rightI don't need the stars I know their nameI'm feeling nervous with no way to relaxI guess I find it hard to face the factsI fell down drunk with my American dream
