lyrics

Born in the USA
I guess I got a lot to learn and not a lot to say
so I'll just sit inside my car just waiting for my next class to start
and I don't really care about success
to me it means something different
like a job or a car or a kiss
or something that I can achieve
Chicago skies burned in my mind
the first time I made us laugh
I think I fell for you in that concrete jungle
gas station
and months of hanging out after dark I've never known this city better
and afterwords we came back to my house and snuggled on my couch
And I just want a normal day filled with kisses on your forehead while
we're talking in your bed
The light shines through your yellow curtains telling me its time
for me
to leave
And why now did you have to go
this ship has barely left its port
and all I wanna do right now is something that I haven't done
with you
with them
and burn some shit in my backyard

Born in the USA
I guess I got a lot to learn but not a lot to say
so I'll just sit inside my car just waiting for the day
when you become somehting more than a friends at my house after 2:00 am pillow forts and post-hardcore bands my name is jake Pt. 2
