I'm lying wide awake in bed
My eyes are closed just like I'm dead
My friends all think that I'm a bore
But I don't need them anymore
I don't get up I don't go out
I have no life to speak about
It feels so good to leave the blame with you
So that's what I do
I'm going down
Come around
Watch me when I hit the ground
Give me just one fix of your
Sweet american love
I'd go blind
Lose my mind
Leave the world I know behind
Just to feel it one last time
My sweet american love
My telephone is off the hook
My eyes are closed I'm scared to look
I bet you're happy now you're free
But what about poor little me
I draw your picture on the wall
My phone is dead and still you call
My mama asked I told her I'd get by
that's such I lie
I'm going down
Come around
Watch me when I hit the ground
Give me just one fix of your
Sweet american love
I'd go blind
Lose my mind
Leave the world I know behind
Just to feel it one last time
My sweet american love
I've kept the things you gave to me
The air is clear but I can't see
And a cheerful radio boasts that "love is in the air"
But it's so full of shit
A Sony, is it?
So what da you have to leave me for
Was it my hair was I such a bore
Well you know baby
That you were always my only choice
Give me just one fix of your
american love, american love
Just to feel it one last time
Oh oh damn you
