How many times am I gonna sit here
Listening to the same bad news
Story lines, big surprise
Chasing ratings for the corporate rues
I’m not saying that it’s all bad, baby
I’m not saying get off the grid
I just think that sometimes that
I’ve got to a getaway from all of it
American dream
I still think that it’s possible
For us to believe
That one day we'll all walk hand-in-hand
In a world where people take a stand
To love not hate
American dream
American dream
I gotta put the phone down baby
I gotta turn that tv off
All the lies, be advised
That sometimes its feels they're tearing us apart
Maybe time to take a walk outside
And have a conversation with our mind
People gotta change
We just gotta change
We just have to look inside
American dream
I still think that it’s possible
For us to believe
That one day we'll all walk hand-in-hand
In a world where people take a stand
To love not hate
American dream
American dream
American dream
I still think that it’s possible
For us to believe
That one day will all walk hand and hand
In a world where people take a stand
To love not hate
American dream
Someone help me understand
Why we’re still fighting in this land
About the color of our skin
Love and laughter
Tears and pain
Deep inside we’re all the same
All together in this place
Help each other find the way
American dream
I still think that it’s possible
For us to believe
That one day we'll all walk-in-hand
American dream
I still think that it’s possible
For us to believe
That one day we'll all walk hand-in-hand
In a world where people take a stand
To love not hate
American dream
American dream

I see a world out the window with nothing
But faces replaced by the faceless; and I don't know why
We're all picking sides, but we're dying to
You're lost but your heart is still fighting for something
Is it something you know or something you don't know why
It's so hard to find but you're trying to
I'll chase the sunrise and you go chase the moon before it falls
If we're all spinning on this thing just give it time, the light's gonna find us all
And I know that one day soon
I'm gonna to see that different side of you
With all of the reasons we have for believing
In people, good people, who want to believe in being kind
But most of the time it's getting harder to
You say you feel like you're caught in between
The place where you're standing and all that you stand behind
Just step outside because there's so much more
I'll chase the sunrise and you go chase the moon before it falls
If we're all spinning on this thing just give it time, the light's gonna find us all
And I know that one day soon
I'm gonna to see that different side of you
I know one day you'll find, find a light so bright
And we're all going to see you
And whether it's the moon or the sun, you're gonna to be someone worth shining on
So keep shining
I'll chase the sunrise and you go chase the moon before it falls
If we're all spinning on this thing just give it time, the light's gonna find us all
And I know that one day soon, yeah I hope it's someday soon
I'm gonna to see that different side of you

I miss Friday nights
Rolling wheels and bright lights
And waking up in a new town each day
I miss dressing up
Doing what I love
And getting burned out ‘cause I don’t take breaks
Now they say we’re safer at home
Thank God I’m not alone
I don’t miss missing you baby
I don’t miss wishing you’d stay and
Waiting for the next time
The next night we’d take our time saying goodbye
I don’t miss calling you lonely
When I got your arms on me
Imagine if we never got this time
I don't miss missing you baby
No, I don't miss missing you baby
But I miss face to face
Finding a new place
And not thinking twice about making plans
I miss when the rain was a nice change of pace
I’d give anything to put my toes in the sand
I know the world still on hold
Ah, but if there’s one thing I know
I don’t miss missing you baby
I don’t miss wishing you’d stay and
Waiting for the next time
The next night we’d take our time saying goodbye
I don’t miss calling you lonely
When I got your arms on me
Imagine if we never got this time
I don't miss missing you baby
No, I don't miss missing you baby
Now they say we’re safer at home
Thank God I’m not alone
I don’t miss missing you baby
I don’t miss wishing you’d stay and
Waiting for the next time
The next night we’d take our time saying goodbye
I don’t miss calling you lonely
When I got your arms on me
Imagine if we never got this time
No, I don't miss missing you baby
No, I don't miss missing you baby

I’ve been searching for ways to get out of this dream
Halfway disguised and completely unseen
I'm barely alive as I’m stuck in between
The lies...
I have shattered your walls just to set up my own
A broken-down king in a broken-down throne
But I’ll burn it all down if you’ll follow me home
Tonight...
Follow me down to an inch of your life
And I will love you
Ask for the proof at the end of the line
I will love you
I’ve been running on faith like it’s cheap gasoline
I'm weathered and worn like a run-down machine
So then this is how it feels to come to a clean
Demise....
And I’ve been shedding my skin just to lighten my load
Tied to the weight of the things I’ve been told
Feeling too young to be feeling this old
Inside
Follow me down to an inch of your life
And I will love you
Ask for the proof at the end of the line
I will love you
There’s nowhere to go when the damage is done
When everyone thought you the fortunate one
But maybe tomorrow will outrun today
And you’ll find a reason to stay
I’ve been floating on air that is too thick to breath
Surrounded by all I want but nothing I need
Tell me all that we are is not all that we leave
Behind...
If you follow me down to an inch of your life
Then I will love you
Ask for the proof at the end of the line
I will love you
Follow me down to an inch of your life
I will love you
Ask for the proof at the end of the line
I will love you

It was 10 o’clock on a Sunday evening
The first time I heard your name
We spent every moment talking
Before laying down the day
The church choir started singin’
The first time that you laid by my side
We left all our worries behind
Wrapped up in each other all night
You got me upside down
I just got say
You are my safe and sound
You are my safe and sound
We’ve got miles and miles behind us
Walking hand-in-hand
Saying whatever’s in the weather
You’ve always got a place to stand
When you feel turned around
Just call my name
I’ll be your safe and sound
Oh, I’ll be your safe and sound
I'll be your safe...
I'll be your safe and sound

I couldn’t tell anyone how I felt about what I’d never find
Now I’m gonna write down on these pages what’s on my mind
Nothing will ever be the same and I’m ok with it cuz I’m here
Never again would I resent everything that I am
Never again would I shy away from talking about where I’ve been
Never again would I tell a friend that everything is over with, no
Whatever it takes is what I got I’ve been wanting to talk for a long time
I still don’t believe what I see when I’m just lying with my mind
I never knew what I didn’t know but I’ll tell you now it’s far below
But I’m never gonna die
And I’m never gonna feel alive again
I’m never gonna ride high, but I’m not gonna say goodbye
Never again would I resent everything that I am
Never again would I shy away from talking about where I’ve been
Never again would I tell a friend that everything is over with, no

I was the star that lit up the night
But you flipped the switch and turned out the light
Said I was shining too bright
So I left you high
In a hotel room
And you let me fly
Thinkin' I would come back soon
Like I always do
Well, it was good until it wasn’t
It always works until it doesn’t
Things change, I’m done
Time for me to look out for number one
Things change, I’m free
It's time for me to look out for me
I gotta go, I gotta run, I gotta find myself
I gotta live, for me, there ain’t nobody else
Things change, I’m done
It's time for me to look out for number one
I found the sun
Inside of the rain
Now I’m gonna take back everything you stole
You can find me at the end of a rainbow
Things change, I’m done
Time for me to look out for number one
Things change, I’m free
Time for me to look out for me
I gotta go, I gotta run, I gotta find myself
I gotta live, for me, there ain’t nobody else
Things change, I’m done
It's time for me to look out for number one
Things change, I’m done
It's time for me to look out for number one
Things change, I’m free
It's time for me to look out for me
I gotta go, I gotta run, I gotta find myself
I gotta live, for me, there ain’t nobody else
Things change, I’m done
Time for me to look out for number one
I gotta go
I gotta leave
Things change, I'm done
I was the star that lit up your night
You flipped out the switch and turned out the light

Paranoid perfect little soldier
Waiting for the world to fuck you over
Running since the day that you born, yeah
Nobody told you
That it might get dark
It might get hard to breathe
But I won’t let go
If you just hold on to me
I’ll never let you go
I got your heart of gold in my hands
In my hands, oh
I’ll keep you safe and sound
I’m gonna hold you close as I can
In my hands, oh
Wave your white flag where you’re standing
I will never leave you stranded
I’ll never let you go
I’ll never let you go
It’s hard to make it through when you’re sober
But the medicine it only makes you colder
You can feel tomorrow getting closer
But you’re not alone, yeah
But might get dark
It might get hard to breathe
But I won’t let go
If you just hold on to me
I’ll never let you go
I got your heart of gold in my hands
In my hands, oh
I’ll keep it safe and sound
I’m gonna hold you close as I can
In my hands, oh
Wave your white flag where you’re standing
I will never leave you stranded
I’ll never let you go
I’ll never let you go
I’ll never let you go
I got your heart of gold in my hands
In my hands, oh
I’ll keep it safe and sound
I’m gonna hold you close as I can
In my hands, oh
Wave your white flag where you’re standing
I will never leave you stranded
I’ll never let you go
I’ll never let you go
