Un-American

We're safe from inside
But out that window they cry
The world is falling down, but we try
To ignore it all, then they ask us why
It's our wholly un-American life
Baby, I don't got a urge no more
How you gonna pull me out that door
Rather rot a little on this floor than to try
And I wanna save the world
I wanna save you, too
And I wish you'd save me like I was your guy

Put in the work
I'm slipping into characters
That don't live these American lives
You don't deserve
The disconnect I made, but if you love me
You would stay

We would remedy the world
Oh, stay
Oh, stay
We could remedy the whole world
Stay

Light, the false sense of safety inside
But little do you know, we might die
And we've not but one thing better to blame
It's our vicious un-American game
Baby, I don't wanna be myself
Maybe I don't even know myself
Maybe Phel is just a cry for help
All this time
If it'll make you stay, I wanna please you good
I'd hate to see you change as you should

Cause I can't deny
I'm slipping into characters
That don't live these American lives
You don't deserve
The disconnect I made, but if you love me
You would stay

We would remedy the world
Oh, stay
Oh, stay
We could remedy the whole world
Stay
We would remedy the world
Stay
We could remedy the whole world

I don't mind stepping into the shoes of other figures
If it gets me away from dealing with my own
Personal problems, but this time
It inadvertently made me face those problems head on
