Текст пісні
Let me tell you 'bout a no man's land
Where one is only what one does
The place the world dreams about
That space America
But no place is an island untouched alone or free
And those bells that toll democracy
Are they the bells that chime for thee
Who can find the answer between the love and hate
When a finger's moving in the dark and the trigger will not wait
Look in its eyes
It's black and it's white
It's the dirt and the bread
It's yellow and red
It's money and greed
It's dirty and pure
Except for kindness and need
Ah, nothin's secure
It's bigger than blood
It's bigger than love
It's bigger than us
It's all the above
And as dumb as it seems
It's about you
It's about me
Runnin' free in your stream
American dreams
The American dream
Now I'm alone and safe at home
My cable's on TV
Are they fightin' wars now everywhere
Or is it me just fightin' me
The problems are my feelings
I think they disappeared
Can someone tell me where they are?
Can anybody hear?
We could try to stop the dead
So the living can be free
But there's no one that I can save
When no one's saving me
It's about work
And about families
About makin' a buck
About making ends meet
About finding a job
About being a freak
To watch your idea
Fly over the street
You may get a chance
To own your own truck
Run and be the president
If you have any luck
And as dumb as it seems
It's about you
It's about me
About a Coke in your jeans
It's what everyone wants
American dreams
