When America Fell


When America Fell Shorter

 I think the shorter one is probably better, but you can listen to the longer one, too.

When America Fell

The melody of the verse of this song came from a dream, and the words of the chorus came from another dream. It's about America falling, as in the United States no longer being the United States. 

The lyrics are: 

Do you remember where you were?
Do you remember where you were...

When America fell
When America fell
When America fell
When America fell

It's a flashbulb memory for
Lots of people - it left us floored

When America fell
When America fell
When America fell
When America fell

One day we woke up and the United States
Was a memory and we said, "Hold on, wait"
This doesn't seem like it should be true
I said, "What the fuck?" and "Oh, shit, where's the blue
And red and white flag?" It has just disappeared
And I think we will shed many tears
And I will soon drink whiskey and many beers

When America fell:
We did not see it coming
When America fell:
Will this be a good thing?

When America fell
When America fell
When America fell
When America fell


Here's the shorter version:

Here's the longer version - I'm not sure which one sucks less. Hmm.
