Song language: English
Ghost of America |
| From the deserts to the oceanside |
| From the mountains to the plains |
| From two thousand years of peaceful life |
| To only strife and pain |
| Came to move them from ancestral homes |
| Bringing howling winds of war |
| To see the endless sky and earth below |
| Nevermore |
| Death and destruction |
| Came rolling from all directions |
| Then came the deal makers |
| Selling their lies |
| A forgotten people |
| Forced to wander the earth |
| Never respected |
| Only (neglected) |
| Theirs is the ghost of America |
| Receiving no honor |
| Holding on to their pride |
| Only were cheated |
| Never defeated |
| Theirs is the ghost of America |
| Many generations had come and gone |
| But their land was never changed |
| Life in harmony with nature reigned |
| Until the white men came |
| Until they said this is our promised land |
| It’s our eminent domain |
| Let’s destroy all traces of the past |
| Let nothing remain |
| Death and destruction |
| Came rolling from all directions |
| Then came the deal makers |
| Selling their lies |
| A forgotten people |
| Forced to wander the earth |
| Never respected |
| Only rejected |
| Theirs is the ghost of America |
| Receiving no honor |
| Holding on to their pride |
| Only were cheated |
| Never defeated |
| Theirs is the ghost of America |
| Death and destruction |
| Came rolling from all directions |
| Then came the deal makers |
| Selling their lies |
| A forgotten people |
| Forced to wander the earth |
| Never respected |
| Only rejected |
| Theirs is the ghost of America |
| Receiving no honor |
| Holding on to their pride |
| Only were cheated |
| Never defeated |
| Theirs is the ghost of America |
