Royal & the Serpent - American Spirit

Fireworks, Yellowstone, the Pacific Northwest
Boys with blue eyes and tattoos on their chests
Apple pie, Bon Iver, drugstore cologne
Pretty baristas and late student loans
Nuclear families and white picket fences
I'm leaning on you but I crave independence

The voice in my head is so loud
You can hear it screaming
Let's get out 'cause I'm disappearing
You call it love, I'm still trying to feel it
But I can't give you up yet
'Cause your kisses taste like American Spirit
American Spirit, American Spirit, American Spirit

Soft Southern accents and Hollywood charm
Throwing bonfire parties on Christmas tree farms
Wisconsin, Beyoncé, a carnival ride
A Hallmark card and a burger with fries
Divorcing parents and homecoming dances
I'm leaning on you but I crave independence

The voice in my head is so loud
You can hear it screaming
Let's get out 'cause I'm disappearing
You call it love, I'm still trying to feel it
But I can't give you up yet
'Cause your kisses taste like American Spirit
American Spirit, American Spirit, American Spirit

You call it love, I'm still trying to feel it
I can't give you up
American Spirit

The voice in my head is so loud
You can hear it screaming
Let's get out 'cause I'm disappearing
You call it love, I'm still trying to feel it
But I can't give you up yet
'Cause your kisses taste like American Spirit
American Spirit, American Spirit, American Spirit
