American Nightmare -

I bought a diploma

Spent four years in a coma

And every penny since they gave it to me

You hid behind my eyes

Dressed up your dreams, disguised them as mine

But «only wanted what was best for me»

This American dream is a nightmare

This American dream is a nightmare

I could sit behind a wooden desk

But this guitar and these songs make me die a bit less

I’ve got a voice I’m gonna goddamn sing

I dragged myself through hell for you

The flames ate away everything but the truth

To be asleep is the only way to believe

This American dream is a nightmare

This American dream is a nightmare
