American Names - Sebastien Grainger

I can see it, the moon over the 133

Why do all the highways lead

To where you don’t want to be?

Come on, I can see it

Come on, we’ve been saying this for years

Our promise was a mire

Your freedom is a deer

You’re calling home but the radio

Is screaming out into your ear

And you can’t wait to get off

When the clock strikes 5am

If you’re always on your way out the door

You’ll never have a place to call home

And home is always too far

Drive on, give your kids American Names

Give them more than what was given to you

Some of you are in hell i know it

But most of you don’t show it

We all have pride and shame

And hey man, I wish we could drive 'em both away…

Driving away

Come on, I can see it

Come on, we’ve been saying this for years

Driving

Driving away
