Love and Rockets - An American Dream lyrics

And I was dreaming in my sleep

Saw through you all


And I was dreaming still on my feet

Saw through you all



And I saw what you could be

And you just don't feel free



And I saw what you could be

But you just won't be real to me



So let's blame this excess

On an American dream

So let's blame the success

Of an American dream



Are you confused by the chaos

In everyones wandering eyes

Do you dream of running naked

In warm rain

Are you confused by the chaos

It's no, it's no surprise

We all stand next to Jesus

Close to Satan we're both the same



These birds can't fly away away

These birds can't fly away



So let's blame this excess

On an American dream

So let's blame the success

Of an American dream

Of an American dream

Of an American dream

Of an American dream



Feeling so high and low

It's the American dream

It's the American dream

It's the American dream

It's the American dream
