Lyrics

Awake at 4am, I'm just staring at the ceiling
So much noise in my brain that I can't go back to sleep
and I don't know what to do
I don't know what to do

Another day of work for another quarter-dollar
2 car payments and the house in under water
and I don't know what to do
I don't know what to do

But then I see you

Won't give up
I Love you
it doesn't matter all the Hell we gotta go through
Together, forever
You make me feel so free
when I'm trapped
In the American Dream

These lines on my face, Man, have really started showing
I look back on the years and I wonder where they're going
And I don't know what to do
I don't know what to do

But then I see you

Won't give up
I Love you
it doesn't matter all the Hell we gotta go through
Together, forever
You make me feel so free
when I'm trapped


Ohh these economics aren't our thing
But with our love
We still live like kings and queens
