Someone Else's Dream

I am freefalling into America
Beneath smokestacks and one way streets
I am the rain, I am nothing
I can’t defend my self defeat
So many people living in a daydream
Of office hours and returned reciepts
I find myself waiting for the big break
Where all this knowledge can be redeemed

But I don’t wanna wait for this to come around to me
I promised myself I’d be a little less like me
I don’t understand how things like this can be
I woke up one morning living someone else’s dream

I am freefalling into a puzzle
Of color T.V. and coffee stains
This is the day, it don’t mean nothing
And I don’t know if I relate
This is the age of new cars and cell phones
Electric lights and neon signs
I couldn’t tell you if I’m alone
Or if I’m just left behind
