Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Wow, what a show
I'd break in two if you had to go
Not cheap but the market's free
No God but I'm still on my knees
[PreChorus]
I think I know why I don't want to leave here
It's so clear
And everytime I say goodbye I realise
I realise
[Chorus]
I love America and she hates me
Gets all her pleasure from shattering my dreams
And all my fear just keeps her fed
And I'll love America until the bullet's in my head
[Verse 2]
Torn and overblown
Divide me up, you know I'm yours to own
All that charm and all that pain
In your arms I know I must remain
[PreChorus]
I think I know why I don't want to leave here
It's so clear
And everytime I say goodbye I realise
I realise
[Chorus]
I love America and she hates me
Gets all her pleasure from smothering my dreams
And all my fear just keeps her fed
And I'll love America until the bullet's in my head
[PreChorus]
I think I know why I don't want to leave here
It's so clear
And everytime I say goodbye I realise
I realise
[Chorus]
I love America and she hates me
Gets all her pleasure from shattering my dreams
And all my fear just keeps her fed
And I'll love America until the bullet's in my head
[Outro]
And all my fear just keeps her fat
And I'll love America until she loves me back
