I don't need another letdown
I close my eyes and let it pass
I don't know why, don't know why

I'm waiting for the letdown
I'll open up and let you in
I'll sing again, sing again

Every mark we make
Is a sign of change
I'm not alone in this American dream
This American dream

I'm looking for a way out
Away from all the innocence
I'll wait it out, wait it out

For another lonely train wreck
A banished heart will represent
Will represent every place we know
The Bowery's singing

Every mark we make
Is a sign of change
I'm not alone in this American dream

Every line we write
Is a town we'll reach
I'm not alone in this American dream
This American dream

Things will get better
Before they get worse
Things will get better

Things will get better
Before they get worse

(Things will get better)

I'm getting stronger
You're getting hurt
I'm getting stronger

I'm getting stronger
While you're getting hurt

Every mark we make
Is a sign of change
I'm not alone in this American dream

Every line we write
Is a town we'll reach
I'm not alone in this American dream
This American
This American dream

I need another letdown
I need another letdown
