American Lie - Strung Out

Can you see it in their eyes

The madness and the pain

A state of mind could rip the fearing face

Off one man and conform

They tried

The new division of obedience

A plan for all to heed

They make the laws and preempt the debt

We don’t question how they do it

Well I can slowly feel this riddle come undone

As I stand upon the face of regret and I realize what we’ve done

Addiction among the artificial bliss, it’s a false reality

And all along and I’m so alive

Lack of cheer with shaded eyes

The great American lie

To believe we’re ancestors of obedience

Until the day you die

Well I can slowly feel this riddle come undone

As I stand upon the face of regret and I realize what we’ve done

Addiction among the artificial bliss, just a false reality

And all along I’m so alive
