Weyes Blood – Land Of Broken Dreams lyrics
[Verse 1]
As I stand up to the wall
In fear to define history
What lies right in front of me
Can't feel as good as it used to be
[Verse 2]
And the dead, any American is found
To feel at times blue
What can you do
When you're sedated
And put through the failure
Of some man's world
[Chorus]
Stand by to believe
In the land of the free
Whatever you want it to be
[Verse 3]
Desperate minds, desperate times
To see the altar smashed over
By this beast
Hours spent, an infinite feast
With the screen to devise
Your fantasy
[Verse 4]
And when I walk, oh, how I walk
To stand and be tall on this burial ground
The faint sound
The echo of what they first found
Must stand on somewhere
[Chorus]
Stand by to believe
In the land of the free
Whatever you want it to be
[Verse 5]
So I didn't learn a thing in school
About being one with star
Chances are
We're more far
In the curse that divides
The sun from you
[Verse 6]
My family
My country and my school
Have all left me dry
To wonder why
We were just born to buy then die
And change nothing
[Hook]
In this time
You must be strong
Find your song
Now
In this time
You must move on
Don't fall behind
Now
As I stand up to the wall
In fear to define history
What lies right in front of me
Can't feel as good as it used to be
[Verse 2]
And the dead, any American is found
To feel at times blue
What can you do
When you're sedated
And put through the failure
Of some man's world
[Chorus]
Stand by to believe
In the land of the free
Whatever you want it to be
[Verse 3]
Desperate minds, desperate times
To see the altar smashed over
By this beast
Hours spent, an infinite feast
With the screen to devise
Your fantasy
[Verse 4]
And when I walk, oh, how I walk
To stand and be tall on this burial ground
The faint sound
The echo of what they first found
Must stand on somewhere
[Chorus]
Stand by to believe
In the land of the free
Whatever you want it to be
[Verse 5]
So I didn't learn a thing in school
About being one with star
Chances are
We're more far
In the curse that divides
The sun from you
[Verse 6]
My family
My country and my school
Have all left me dry
To wonder why
We were just born to buy then die
And change nothing
[Hook]
In this time
You must be strong
Find your song
Now
In this time
You must move on
Don't fall behind
Now
