There's a world we can visit if we go outside Outside, outside, we can follow the road Outside, outside, no one knows Can you hear me now? I used to dream every night, now I never dream at all I'm hopin' that it's cause I'm livin' everything I want I

Welcome to a new kind of tension All across the alien nation Where everything isn't meant to be okay Television dreams of tomorrow We're not the ones who're meant to follow For that's enough to argue Don't wanna be an American idiot Don't want a nation

Welcome to a new kind of tension All across the alienation Where everything isn't meant to be okay Television dreams of tomorrow We're not the ones who're meant to follow For that's enough to argue Don't wanna be an American idiot Don't want a nation

Fly into the distance Disappear for a while I can't make sense of this Remind me I'm golden The fortress above the sun Why don't you spend nowhere with me? Follow the river and the path of the ones trying the names Of the shore Forever I can't find

Whatever you may hear or see Us of constant banging Throwing fists against the wall How cruel time can be When you wake you'll know I'm gone And where I'm going there's no one So don't follow me Don't follow me

Those crazy loves, they'll never run Spinning together Make you turn, make you turn, just to find another one Watch them falling Watch them shatter 'Cause they can't see where they're going They're just following

I'm too misty, and too much in love. You can say that you're leading me on, But it's just what I want you to do, Don't you notice how hopelessly I'm lost, That's why I'm following you. On my own, would I wander through this wonderland alone, Never

Everything is all right I'll be the one to tuck you in at night And if you want to leave I can guarantee You won't find nobody else like me I'm singin' You don't know how you met me You don't know why All you know is when I'm with you

There's a world we can visit if we go outside Outside, outside, we can follow the road Outside, outside, no one knows Can you hear me now? I used to dream every night, now I never dream at all I'm hopin' that it's cause I'm livin' everything I want I

Welcome to a new kind of tension All across the alien nation Where everything isn't meant to be okay Television dreams of tomorrow We're not the ones who're meant to follow For that's enough to argue Don't wanna be an American idiot Don't want a nation
