American Spirit
[Verse 1]
I'm over this town
The mean jeans, the dark side of man
Was it always so dull?
I'm second guessing my sincerity
Without her around
A regret's just a couple of silibles
Chained her American spirit
And left me with one

[Chorus]
It gets dark in the city, that's what makes you look so pretty
That's what makes you look so pretty with a cigarette
With a cigarette
Yeah, it gets dark in the city, that's what makes you look so pretty
That's what makes you look so pretty with a cigarette
With a cigarette

[Verse 2]
I'm over thinking
My boat nothing but dimming the sun
And the toy boys live well
In games off together, gathering dust
After wishing their wells
And willing some purpose for passion
I haven't been doing too well
[Pre-Chorus]
Can you spread the word in black and white?
Her parents pay her bills to make her weekend
Her friends already wrapped around her wrist
But nostalgia thrills lead to medical bills
And she's been reading

[Chorus]
That it gets dark in the city, that's what makes you look so pretty
That's what makes you look so pretty with a cigarette
With a cigarette
Yeah, it gets dark in the city, that's what makes you look so pretty
That's what makes you look so pretty with a cigarette
With a cigarette
Yeah, it gets dark in the city, that's what makes you look so pretty
That's what makes you look so pretty, that's what makes you look so

[Bridge]
Can you spread the word in black and white?
Her parents pay her bills to make her weekend
Her friends already wrapped around her wrist
But nostalgia thrills lead to medical bills
And she's been reading

[Outro]
And don't you just know me so well, playing hide and seek?
And don't you just know me so well, playing hide and seek?
Don't you just know me so well, playing hide and seek?
And don't you just know me so well?
