Im lying wide awake in bed

My eyes are closed just like Im dead

My friends all think that Im a bore

But I dont need them anymore

I dont get up I dont get out

I have no life to speak about

It feels so good to leave the blame with you

So thats what I do



Im going down

Come around

Watch me when I hit the ground

Give me just one fix of your

Your sweet american love

Id go blind

Lose my mind

Leave the world I know behind

Just to feel it one last time

My sweet american love



My telephone is off the hook

My eyes are closed Im scared to look

I bet youre happy now youre free

Byt what about poor little me

I draw your picture on the wall

My phone is dead and still you call

My mama asked I told her I get by

Thats such I lie



Im going down

Come around

Watch me when I hit the ground

Give me just one fix of your

Your sweet american love

Id go blind

Lose my mind

Leave the world I know behind

Just to feel it one last time

My sweet american love



Ive kept the things you gave to me

The air is clear but I cant see

And a cheerful radio boasts that "love is in the air"

But its so full of shit

A sony, is it?

So what da you have to leave me for

Was it my hair was I such a bore

Well you know baby

You were always my only choice
