about

American Dream is retrowave synth pop track that unfolds the story of a couples different perspectives of the American Dream, leaving an open ended conclusion for the listener to have their own view if the relationship ultimately survives the couples path to their American Dream.

lyrics

Janey gets lonely
Living her life in dreams
Wants something real to hold to
Somewhere her dreams have not been
But Billy keeps on fooling
He’s let her down again
He’s running out of time
He swears the fire will never end

Set your world on fire
Set your world on fire
Set your world on fire
Now
Right now

Billy keeps talking ,
Drinking troubles away
Can’t stop the wheels in motion
Just can’t get in the way
Says we’ll take a long trip (so long)
Out of this two horse place (this town)
Janey laughs and smiles
Its Fuelling fire with golden rain

Set your world on fire
Set your world on fire
Set your world on fire
Now
Right now


The American dream with neon lights
Taking the hits when Reality bites
Out of vegas time
Cant reach those highs
Shoot down to earth
At the five and dime
Cos Gravity pulls
From the county line
But the day will come
When those stars align (oh stars do shine)

American, American Dream
American, American Dream
Set your world on fire now
Set your world on fire
American dream

Set your world on fire
Set your world on fire
Set your world on fire
Now
Right now

American, American Dream
American, American Dream
American, American Dream
American, American Dream
