In America |
Is it better not to look back or should we dust off our journals |
Stare deep through the feedback for the new day |
Like the distortion has things to say? |
Is it better to ignore it, that these bomb shelters are built of sand |
Scoring themes from our views making movies of tragic news |
Does this helpless picnic have its own neverland? |
America never hurts |
They say America never cries |
Like no one’s lost in America |
No one’s lost in America |
Listening to pink noise, yeah, we make mirrors out of shop windows |
No one dares to pull the red card, consience is seared by truths we discard |
And now we’ve Aurelius, but soon comes Decius |
And perhaps Constantine is a devil keen on making things easy |
They say America never hurts |
They say America never cries |
Like no one’s lonely in America |
No one’s lonely in America |
Bridge: |
Come alive, come alive |
Come alive, come alive |
The prophet’s cello’s silenced, if love burns us down to violence |
If the whims of the nation cater elation will we not need a soul to blame? |
He has to take it all alone |
Is His move political, a play for the people? |
No |
He takes one for the little guy |
He takes a hit for the little guy |
They say America never hurts |
They say America never cries |
Like no one’s lonely in America |
Like no one’s lonely in America (Luke 6:20−38) |
