Gunship - Postcard From The American Dream

Get out of the room, I can't sleep
Because the bed's too big for just me
I chew some more on the straw
Of the milkshake flavored by reverie

Eyes on the sky (stars, stars)
Searching for heaven (stars, stars)
I think I've found it (stars, stars)
It is the memory of when we're together

Can I hold you again? I forget what it's like
(Never let go, never again let go)
Yeah, the marks on my cheeks
I can't lie, I've been crying
(You were never alone, you were never alone)
I'll keep my heart warm by the motel fire
(It feels like home, it feels like home)
But it's something I just love
It is just so America

I think I've taken this a little too far
But it's something I had to see
Scribed in blood and full of holes
Here's the postcard from a dream
Can I be in your head?
Can I be in your head?

Eyes on the sky (stars, stars)
Searching for heaven (stars, stars)
I think I've found it (stars, stars)
It is the memory of when we're together

Can I hold you again? I forget what it's like
(Never let go, never again let go)
Yeah, the marks on my cheeks
I can't lie, I've been crying
(You were never alone, you were never alone)
I'll keep my heart warm by the motel fire
(It feels like home, it feels like home)
But it's something I just love
It is just so America

Love creates the illusion
That we are not alone

Who's gonna save us now?
(Who's gonna save us?)
Who's gonna save us now?
(Who's gonna save us now?)

Head down, I bow to you
Head down, I cry, it's true
Who's gonna save us?
(Who's gonna save us?)
We're gonna save ourselves
