Duration: P00H04M46S
Description: Matt from the Storm of Crows posted about some silly song titles he wrote when he was in High School. One of them was "I Don't Want To Wake Up Dead In America" - I said it sounds like a great song tittle. He said that I should write the song. So I did and I asked his band to contribute their talents to the track.

lyrics

I spend my life in this dead end town
Nothing here for me, no reason to hang around
I’ve got no money and no place to go
Even if I did I couldn’t make it on my own

They call me a loser, call me a clown
They say I’m nothing while they push me around
I try to fit in but there’s nothing I can do
I hear what they’re saying and I agree with them too

Pre-Chorus
Why am I here? Why am I all alone?
I’m just a loser with no place to go

Chorus
I don’t want to wake up dead in America
I’d rather die somewhere else
I don’t want to wake up dead in America
Please let me die anywhere else

I search for hope but there’s none in sight
I can’t even begin to know what’s wrong or right
I wish there was someone out there for me
I’ve looked my whole life and there is no one I can see

I only hope there’s a way get out
Even if there is, I just don’t know how
I walk alone in the dead of night
I look in their windows but I’m completely out of site

Pre-Chorus
Why am I here? Why am I all alone?
I’m just a loser with no place to go

Chorus
I don’t want to wake up dead in America
I’d rather die somewhere else
I don’t want to wake up dead in America
Please let me die anywhere else

Outro
I spend my life in this dead end town
No one here for me, no one else around
