lyrics

I sent a letter but I never got one back
From my American dream
So untouchable and so right
You're my American dream

I remember when my baby got back
From his hero sacrifice
Still I promise I will never blink twice
You can listen to me anytime

It's for a higher good
A lesser evil
My American dream

I gave you my hand and we held our private love
Then let it go easy
To travel fast and find exotic lands
A tear of pride for all I whored for this greater plan

For the higher good
A lesser evil
My American dream

How many more days
Until I can open my eyes
That I've closed
For our dream to reside?
I only wanted to raise the flag
I only wanted to let them know

How many more lives until I can linger on
The joy that was promised to soon arrive?
I know my patience will have to strive
My willingness will need to show

Raise the flag
Hail the ghost
Let them know

Raise the flag
Hail the ghost
Let them know

I gave my mind up and I never want it back
My American dream
I've learn to hear, agree, steer, oblige
For the people's machine

It’s for a higher good
A lesser evil
My American dream

It's for a higher good
A lesser evil
My American dream
