Sonora.ID – Berikut ini adalah lirik lagu ‘The American Dream is Killing Me’ oleh grup band Green Day yang baru dirilis pada 24 Oktober 2023.
Melansir Genius, “The American Dream is Killing Me” adalah lagu rock yang kuat yang menunjukkan ketidaksukaan Green Day terhadap cara hidup orang Amerika.
Hal ini memberikan gambaran halus mengenai krisis perumahan, pengangguran, dan media sosial, serta lanskap politik bermasalah yang dialami Amerika Serikat pada tahun 2020-an.
Lagu ini, yang merupakan single utama dari album ke- 14 Green Day, Saviors, teasernya telah muncul beberapa bulan sebelumnya oleh band dan diputar secara keseluruhan dalam konser pop-up di Las Vegas tepat sebelum When We Were Young Festival.

Lirik:
[Chorus]
The American Dream is killin' me
The American Dream is killin' me
When it's all double-talk of conspiracy
The American dream is killin' me
[Verse 1]
Send out an S.O.S.
It's getting serious
Bulldoze your family home
Now it's a condo
[Pre-Chorus]
We are not home
Are we not home?
Goddamn, I am so grateful
Forever faithful to
[Chorus]
The American Dream is killin' me
The American Dream is killin' me
[Bridge]
People on the street
Unemployed and obsolete
Did you ever learn to read the ransom note?
[Verse 2]
Don't want no huddled masses
TikTok and taxes
Under the overpass
Sleepin' in broken glass
[Pre-Chorus]
We are not well
Are we not well?
Cracked up into the wild
We're pedophiles for
[Chorus]
The American Dream is killin' me
The American Dream is killin' me
When it's all double-talk of insanity
The American Dream is killin' me
Say!
[Interlude]
Woah, oh, oh oh-oh
Woah, oh, oh oh-oh
Woah, oh, oh oh-oh
[Verse 3]
From sea to shinin' sea
Whitewashed upon the beach
My country under siege
On private property
[Pre-Chorus]
We are not home
Are we not home?
Kiss me, I'm dead inside
Who needs suicide when
[Chorus]
The American Dream is killin' me
The American Dream is killin' me
When it's all double-talk of insanity
The American Dream is killin' me
