lyrics

Lovers and dreamers hold hands as they board the last train from Grand Central
Hoping to combat the loss; Counting and mourning the cost

The land of such progress and trouble and passion and action brought still
Refugees stranded outside; Asphyxiated by pride
A people divided and scared, Hoping to learn of the cause of this American Still

Please do not sleep here read the sign on the storefront in Washington
Vacancies filled in the street; Vacant eyes longing for sleep
Services lent and forgotten by powers that are American Still

The church basement walls, both stronghold and prison to the family
A home base, a shelter for night; A place to prepare for the fight
To give them a chance at a life that might be American Still

A billboard once bright and inspiring now faded to grey
The red and the blue gone away; The words, yes we can, fight to stay
Mounted through tempests and trials that are American Still

A corner once empty now serves as a neighborhood meeting place
A woman preaches love, not spite; The minds and the hearts reunite
As people realize the path forward that is American Still
