Ghost of America

From the deserts to the oceanside

From the mountains to the plains

From two thousand years of peaceful life

To only strife and pain

Came to move them from ancestral homes

Bringing howling winds of war

To see the endless sky and earth below

Nevermore

Death and destruction

Came rolling from all directions

Then came the deal makers

Selling their lies

A forgotten people

Forced to wander the earth

Never respected

Only (neglected)

Theirs is the ghost of America

Receiving no honor

Holding on to their pride

Only were cheated

Never defeated

Theirs is the ghost of America

Many generations had come and gone

But their land was never changed

Life in harmony with nature reigned

Until the white men came

Until they said this is our promised land

It's our eminent domain

Let's destroy all traces of the past

Let nothing remain

Death and destruction

Came rolling from all directions

Then came the deal makers

Selling their lies

A forgotten people

Forced to wander the earth

Never respected

Only rejected

Theirs is the ghost of America

Receiving no honor

Holding on to their pride

Only were cheated

Never defeated

Theirs is the ghost of America

Death and destruction

Came rolling from all directions

Then came the deal makers

Selling their lies

A forgotten people

Forced to wander the earth

Never respected

Only rejected

Theirs is the ghost of America

Receiving no honor

Holding on to their pride

Only were cheated

Never defeated

Theirs is the ghost of America
