Ought – Disgraced In America lyrics

Birds fly around
While the dividends pay
Birds fly around
While I'm picking up change

Crapping out tokens
And live in a haze
Build lights in the dungeons
And plumbing in the grave

Something was in concert
Some song was played
But nothing was delivered
And a franchise was made

And what if I told you
What if I said
They built it themselves
And it feels so good

Well I'll believe it
When you take me in

Floated around downtown
I floated around Spain
I was like a dentist
Rooting for pain


Cover me in blankets
Cover me in paint
I'll dance like a child again
I'll die like a marine

No not that refrain again
I'm stuck in the same dream
What a blessing

What a blessing
What an imitation
What a blessing
What an imitation

I can't be there
When you take me in

Here comes the saint
In the red again
A dictum in paint
Til I scrub them

I was disgraced in America
Yeah, I was disgraced in America

And what if I told you
What if I said
I build to myself
And it feels so good


Well I won't be here
When you take me in
In

Birds fly around
While the dividends pay
Birds fly around
While i'm picking up change
And i'm feeling
Handsy

Demarcation
Demarcation
See those lines interrupt
Oooh

Demarcation
Wears me thin
Demarcation
Does me in

Oooh oh oh
Oooh oh oh

Demarcation's
One note plays
Rings I've made
Won't hold me
Paper thin

Demarcation
Demarcation
See those lines interrupt

Oooh oh oh
Oooh oh oh

Aaah ah
Aaah ah
Aaah ah
Aaah ah
