[Verse 1]
We sold ourselves as the saviors
And took our place on the pedestal
But the lines we draw are wearing thin
'Cause we're the heroes and the villains
[Chorus]
We used to be the chosen ones
But I don't know who we've become
'Cause we are heroes and villains
We used to stand with open arms
But I don't know whose side we're on
'Cause we are heroes and villains
[Post-Chorus]
I've been looking for America
I've been looking for America
[Verse 2]
We told the world that we were free
But I'm not sure what it really means
And we don't need to think the same
But we don't need to run away
From our difference
From our distance
[Chorus]
We used to be the chosen ones
But I don't know who we've become
'Cause we are heroes and villains
We used to stand with open arms
But I don't know whose side we're on
'Cause we are heroes and villains
[Post-Chorus]
I've been looking for America
I've been looking for America
