American Mask Lyrics by PLUME

Sewing Party

2024

[Verse l]
This Time, I think I said too much
I haven’t done enough
Don’t know where to start
But I’ll try
I think, I think I think too much
Coding my heart
Afraid to complain so I guess
Gotta put on the American mask
Gotta put on the American mask
You’re wearing freedom on that star-spangled dress
So take a look at my American mask
I’m waiting patiently for the day
The ocean’s gonna wash my edges away
But right now I can’t leave
Gotta stay, maybe someday
The blue sky’s an illusion
The red stains a suffusion
I’m overdosing on a flooded mind

[Chorus]
Just know that I’m all set
To go for a drive with you by my side
Oh I need to leave this view behind
I’m feeling south but living north
It’s only the idea, that I adore
Sometimes I make up my mind
And fall in love with the American kind

[Verse ll]
And yes
All I am is just a man
I want this world to understand
That nothingness inside my head
Doesn’t arise from pain, but home instead
It’s either now or never
Don’t say whenever
Either now or never
You gotta change your weather
And my insecurities nah nah
They don’t look good on me ah ah
So what the hell is stopping me? Yeah
What’s fucking stopping me?

[Chorus]
Just know that I’m all set
To go for a drive with you by my side
Oh I need to leave this view behind
I’m feeling south but living north
It’s only the idea, that I adore
I guess I’m feeling off the track
I gotta put on the American mask

[Build-Up]
You know It’s chasing you
Horizon’s calling, horizon’s calling for you

[Breakdown]
Gotta put on the American mask
Gotta put on the American mask
Gotta put on the American mask
Hiding behind my American

[Outro]
You’re wearing freedom on that star-spangled dress
So take a look at my American mask
