This is not America.... shalalalala
A little piece of you,
 the little piece in me, will die
For this is not America (this is not a miracle)
 Blossom fails to bloom this season,
 promise not to stare, too long
For this is not the miracle
(this is not America)
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
So bloody red, tomorrow's clouds
(this could be the biggest sky)
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
For this is not America
shalalalala
shalalalala
shalalalala
This is not America (No)
This is not,
This is not America (No)
shalalalala
This is not,
This is not America (No)
shalalalala
This is not,
shalalalala
