THIS IS NOT AMERICA BY DAVID BOWIE

LYRICS

This is not America
Shalalalala
A little piece of you,
The little piece in me,
Will die
(this is not a miracle)
For this is not America
Blossom fails to bloom this season,
Promise not to stare,
Too long
(this is not America)
For this is not the miracle
There was a time,
A storm that blew, so pure
For this could be the biggest sky
And I could have the faintest idea
For this is not America
Shalalalala
Shalalalala
Shalalalala
This is not America (No)
This is not
Shalalalala
Snowman melting from the inside
Falcon spirals to,
The ground
(this could be the biggest sky)
So bloody red, tomorrow’s clouds
A little piece of you,
The little piece in me
Will die
(this could be a miracle)
For this is not America
There was a time,
A wind that blew, so young
For this could be the biggest sky
And I could have the faintest idea…

  1. The promised land
    where the future glowed
    in every heart beat of devotions.
    this ain’t the dream
    contradiction is real
    we modulate our minds
    to survive tribulations
    for what is the point
    if not to love
    what miracles still exist.?
    to share kindness
    as a reconciliation

  2. This is not America
    once a leader of all
    breaking every rule
    no longer right at all
    this is not America
    our heart once pledged
    we once were proud
    now, falling to the edge
    Morals, we don’t observe
    no faith in our leader
    none deserved
    lies and morals bleed here
    this is not America,
    blood on each hand
    can’t be proud
    Russia’s seamen land
    all truth and dignity
    now part of the past
    built on lies
    none of it can last
