Jamestown Revival - American Dream

Pink suitcase and a princess gown
A movie star in my own town
She said she came back home so she can breathe
She takes her pills and sings her songs
With a broken delivery all night long
And the life she had to live was tragedy

Daddy worked for Jesus
Sister leads the band
Bobby's out of rehab
And Lizzy's going in
Mother's medicated
Nothing's what it seems
Suddenly she finds out the American dream

She woke up late in the afternoon
She smiled at me said I'm leaving soon
Why don't you pack your things and come with me
Then she takes her pills and sings her songs
With a broken delivery all night long
Screaming Hollywood was made for you and me

Daddy worked for Jesus
Sister leads the band
Bobby's out of rehab
And Lizzy's going in
Mother's medicated
Nothing's what it seems
Suddenly she finds out the American dream

Now the stars don't shine in Hollywood

Daddy worked for Jesus
Sister leads the band
Bobby's out of rehab
And Lizzy's going in
Mother's medicated
Nothing's what it seems
Suddenly she finds out the American dream
