American heart
I woke from a strange dream
A taste of glass and gash
A flavor of chocolate
In a body and in the city
A flavor of life and death
American heart
With the flavor of glass and gash
Waiting in a long line
And the black body forgot
It was in San Vicente
The city and its lights
It was in San Vicente
The women and the men
American heart
Like the flavor of glass and gash
The hours were countless
And the darkness became night
While waiting
I was in San Vicente
While it was happening
I was in San Vicente
American Heart
