I used to see you on every TV
Your smiling face looked back at me
I used to see you on every TV
Your smiling face looked back at me

Then they caught you with the girl next door,
People's money piled on the floor,
Accusations that you ty to deny,
Revelations and rumours begin to fly

Now you think about reaching out
Try to get some help from above
Now you think about reaching out
Try to get some help from above

Reporters crowd around your house
Going through your garbage like a pack of hounds,
Speculating what they may find out,
It don't matter now, you're all washed up

You wake up in the middle of the night
Your sheets are wet and your face is white,
You tried to make a good thing last,
How could something so good, go bad, so fast?

American dream, American dream American dream, American dream

Don't know when things went wrong,
Might have been when you were young and strong
Don't know when things went wrong,
Might have been when you were young and strong

Reporters crowd around your house
Going through your garbage like a pack of hounds,
Speculating what they may find out,
It don't matter now, you're all washed up

Don't know when things went wrong,
Might have been when you were young and strong
American dream, American dream
Don't know when things went wrong,
Might have been when you were young and strong
American dream, American dream
