I built America for you

You were lost
Everything sunken, everything broken, everything experienced
You say, boy, look around you, look where you sleep
Look where you sleep
I built America for you
You drink wine
Much too old, much to late to go back
In the house that's much too large, and you're silent
The two of you, the two of you
But without her you can't go to sleep
You don't say anything, agree with me
 
And I sleep beside you, but we're both alone
Yeah, I sleep beside you, without you I am alone
 
You drink too much
I always resurface and then dive back down
At least for a moment after
I have to go now, or else I'll miss something
And sit at home
You are a slave to your security
And I am one to your freedom
Yeah, maybe and yeah, could be, and yeah, I know
Yeah, you built America for me
 
And I sleep beside you, but we're both alone
Yeah, I sleep beside you, without you I am alone
And I sleep beside you, but we're both alone
Yeah, I sleep beside you, without you I am alone, I am alone
 
I built America for you, yeah
 
And I sleep beside you, but we're both alone
Yeah, I sleep beside you, without you I am alone
And I sleep beside you, but we're both alone
Yeah, I sleep beside you, without you I am alone, I am alone
 
We built America for us
