"Goodbye, America" lyrics

"Goodbye, America"

Goodbye, America
I'm sorry that we love to hate on you
I promise that we hate to love you, too
It's complicated

Goodbye, America
It's your party and you'll cry if you want to
Ya big baby, trying to get back in the womb
I hope you make it

Rest up, take care
Get better soon, get better soon, get better soon
Somehow, somewhere
Get better soon

Goodbye, America
And now who am I to judge?
You sold a dream and the world bought it up
You made a killing

Goodbye, America
Now everything's a goddamn Super Bowl
Trying to fill an angry dad-shaped hole
Go hug your children

Rest up, take care
Get better soon, get better soon, get better soon
Somehow, somewhere
Get better soon

Goodbye, America
Are you going to drag your friends down, too?
They caught you reaching for the lowest hanging fruit
You kicked your own ladder

Goodbye, America
Don't let the fever take your fight
I believe that you can make it through the night
I still think it matters
