This American dream is not what it seems
Maybe we're still breathing but we're all asleep

'Cause I wanna live until I die
Don't let the devil bury me alive
When my heart stops, let me go home
Don't let the suburbs kill my heart and soul
My heart and soul

Pretty cars and pretty houses, pretty people on parade
If this dream is what you're after then dreaming is where you'll stay

'Cause I wanna live until I die
Don't let the devil bury me alive
When my heart stops, let me go home,
Don't let the suburbs kill my heart and soul, yeah
My heart and soul

Are we just running in the dark or living?
Are we just running in the dark or living?

'Cause I wanna live until I die
Don't let the devil bury me alive
When my heart stops, let me go home
Don't let the suburbs

Oh, I wanna live until I die
Don't let the devil bury me alive
When my heart stops, let me go home
Don't let the suburbs kill my heart and soul
Kill my heart and soul, yeah
My heart and soul
