American Dream Lyrics by Donny Benét

Infinite Desires

2024

[Verse 1]
America keeps dividing
While Russia keeps on fighting
China keeps on giving
The gift that keeps on living
[Verse 2]
When the orange man came into power
The minutes soon felt like hours
Then the old man won the election
But the world didn't change direction
[Pre-Chorus]
When did we get it wrong in our world?
Why can't we get along in our world?
[Chorus]
It's over (Ah, ah)
The end of the American dream (American Dream)
It's over (Ah, ah)
So long to the American dream (American Dream)
[Verse 3]
Afghanistan, Papua New Guinea
Perth and Mexico City
People are hurting all around us
But we scroll on by till something resounds with us
We do nothing 'cause that's what's expected
We live our lives with our own agendas
We fatten ourselves on missed opportunities
We place our faith in false conspiracies
[Pre-Chorus]
When did we get it wrong in our world?
When did we grow apart in that world?
[Chorus]
It's over (Ah, ah)
The end of the American dream (American Dream)
It's over (Ah, ah)
So long to the American dream (American Dream)
It's over (Ah, ah)
The end of the American dream (American Dream)
It's over (Ah, ah)
So long to the American dream (American Dream)
[Instrumental Outro]
