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 onto 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, us together, find a home
Better weather, or
We can just stay here for a while
We got caught up in American
Holding onto 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 onto hope there and back again
Taking back what's lost
Just to find it all buried in American dreams
We got caught up in American
And American dreams
Taking back what's lost
Just to find it all buried in American dreams
