| 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, yes, together find a home | |
| Better weather, oh, we can just lay 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 | |
| American dreams | |
| Taking back what's lost just to find it all | |
| Buried in American dreams |
