Two of Us Lyrics

I actually thought that "Look at me I'm a speck of sand, And I'm building dreams in a strangers land Tell me why do I care" meant that he is doing something for someone else, he's not doing what he believes he should do. He's building dreams in someone else's land, not in his own, he's living someone else's life and is not quite sure why he does on with the lies... but as long as there's two of us, it doesnt matter, cause that person makes it worth all the shit... probably thought it that way for my personal situation, but it's a possibility, right?

Absolutely right, I agree. I feel the same way.

I interpreted the line "I'm building dreams in a stranger's land" as going to America to record material, tour, and do whatever else A&M Records asked them to do there.
