Rushmore

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I need some help with the old pictures That I go through these days I haven't been myself enough to call I'm buried in the sheets today I never decide alone [Verse 2] I'm wishing the job was a lot closer To the state I am in I need a good time to show my people And I hope it is today I never wanted to prove [Pre-Chorus] I'm ready to lose and to make an excuse And yet don't know how to move I'm ready to choose and to finish this school And I don't know how to lose [Chorus] You already know you're in the eyes of the people When they look for gold And they think you're too old I must've heard we'd go within a second or two When they think you're cool And they believe it's true [Verse 3] Where once the glory days are past They are gone forever I set foot on the land and I can tell The country exists I forgive myself so easily [Verse 4] We're the fake Americans And the talents for dreams We're the fake Europeans And the need for a thrill This is Mount Rushmore here [Pre-Chorus] I'm ready to lose and to make an excuse And yet don't know how to move I'm ready to choose and to finish this school And I don't know how to lose [Chorus] You already know you're in the eyes of the people When they look for gold And they think you're too old I must've heard we'd go within a second or two When they think you're cool And they believe it's true [Instrumental Outro]
