Lately I've felt so pathetic
That it burns, I can't sweat it
Cause I know I'm gonna work this out
Baby just sit back and forget about
The world and how they always doubt
That we can make it worth our while
I hear all the words you never say
And you can always walk away
Cause I can see it in your vacant smile
We got caught up in American
Holding on to hope, there and back again
Taking back what's lost just to find it all
Buried in American dreams
Oh dream, dream, dream
Maybe we can start a scene or just screw all day
We can run away, yes together
Find a home, better weather
Or we can just lay here for a while
We got caught up in American
Holding on to hope, there and back again
Taking back what's lost just to find it all
Buried underneath this weight
I'm starting to believe this is what you hate
And nothing's gonna work out the way it seems
But you'll always be my American
Dream, dream, dream
Maybe we can start a scene or just screw all day
We got caught up in American
Holding on to hope, there and back again
Taking back what's lost just to find it all
Buried in American dreams
Oh dream, dream, dream
Maybe we can start a scene or just screw all day
We got caught up in American
An American Dream
Taking back what's lost just to find it all
Buried in American dreams
