M. Lockwood Porter - American Dreams Denied lyrics

Artist: M. Lockwood Porter

album: How to Dream Again


Left without a future, born without a past
I was always told my birthright was an ever-half-full glass
My heart is full of anger, we've been left behind
I'm an only child of American dreams denied
Stay isolated, empty, anxious, and afraid
Watch your back and mind your own until your debts are paid
It took me all these years to learn to look beyond the lies
I'm an only child of American dreams denied
If a tree falls in an empty forest, does it make a sound?
I came to sing a simple chorus for the underground
You corpses and you sleepers, it's past the time to wait
The hungry and the hoping, they're all pounding at your gate
There are thunderclouds above us, but they're about to burst
The water's gonna keep on rising until the battlefield's immersed
My heart is full of anger, we've been left behind
I'm an only child of American dreams denied
