American girl, it was never enough
I was throwing signs in your direction
though you know it wasn't my intention to take you home tonight
we've been there before
you say i'm going off the reservation, was I ever on the reservation?
knew it all along but i threw it away, lights on our faces turns pale and grey
I always knew I would do it that way
you said you would always be fine...
hide it in a corner and throw it away, lock it in a box and forget my name
the selfish one that's cold and vain
American girl, I don't know what they want
always fire shots in my direction, looking for another one's affection
what keeps us up at night: it's bridges apart
the train has gone and crashed into the station
though you know it wasn't my intention
knew it all along but I threw it away, lights on our faces turns pale and grey
I always knew I would do it that way
you said you would always be fine...
hide it in a corner and throw it away, lock it in a box and forget my name
The selfish one that's cold and vain
The lights go out it's such a pity, buildings yawn in a quiet city
So please take me home
Chariots in the sky are falling, swinging low come be my constant
Please carry me home
