American Teenager
Grew up under yellow light on the street
- Grew up under yellow light on the street
- Putting too much faith in the make-believe
- And another high school football team
- The neighbor's brother came home in a box
- But he wanted to go so maybe it was his fault
- Another red heart taken by the American dream
- And I feel it there
- In the middle of the night
- When the lights go out and I'm all alone again
- Say what you want but say it like you mean it
- With your fists for once a long cold war
- With your kids at the front
- Just give it one more day then you're done
- Done
- I do what I want crying in the bleachers
- And I said it was fun
- I don't need anything from anyone it's just not my year
- But I'm all good out here
- Sunday morning
- Hands over my knees in a room full of faces
- I'm sorry if I sound off but I was probably wasted
- And didn't feel so good
- Head full of whiskey but I always deliver
- Jesus if you're listening let me handle my liquor
- And Jesus if you're there why do I feel alone in this room with you
- And I feel it there
- In the middle of the night
- When the lights go out
- But I'm still standing here
