lyrics

Verse 1
Further down here
Like we’ve never seen before
Erasing legends and lore
Searching for something more
Strip your façade
A beautiful decay
A mirage of yesterday
It was never that way
Stars on a screen
Accompanied with violins
And pianos, candlelit
The bliss of a romantic
Rain falls on their faces
As they scream toward the sky
The lighting placed just right
This becomes real life
Chorus
Fill you up with enchanted ideas
Memories tied with nothing that happened
Heartbeats bleeding and reflect schisms
Market invented dreams
Verse 2
Carry her in your arms
Reinforce what you’ve been taught
And spew out all those thoughts
About who you ought to be
An American dream
Television protects you
An American dream
What else can you do?

Verse 3
Where do you go from here?
When nothing is clear
When everything just seems so real
Chorus
Fill you up with enchanted ideas
Memories tied with nothing that happened
Heartbeats bleeding and reflect schisms
Market invented dreams
