American Dream

Well I'm just lookin' for solutions. Don't get me wrong, I don't care about your revolution, that ain't me.
But how can I get things right by tweeting at a guy who told a bunch of lies or starting another silly facebook fight.
The hero lies still at the break of dawn while everybody wonders what went wrong this time.
What did you mean by American dream? Is everyone here supposed to get a piece? I don't really think you know what I mean.
If I had a chance to leave, I'd trade it in for a big TV so I can watch you die in HD.
Well I dropped my guard and they cut your throat. Your love bled out and that's all she wrote and now I'm confined to watching you slowly die.
You've always been subject to the mercy of the men who gagged your mouth and silenced you when they said they were gonna make you great again.
We built that wall and we opened the door, rolled out the red carpet for the Trojan horse this time.
What did you mean by American dream? Is everyone here supposed to get a piece? I don't really think you know what I mean. If I had a chance to leave, I'd trade it in for a big TV so I can watch you die in HD.

Keep finding the cause and tell 'em that your roots run deep. 'Cuz evil's always out there and the powers that be never sleep.
Keep faith the company man has always got your back. And you're gonna need him cuz the working class is under attack.
We're gonna find someone who cleans up nice for you to get behind because this our time for finding peace of mind. In thirty years or more it won't matter what we started fighting for, just as long as we have a few seats on the floor.
Knights fall to carry us home and the lord will provide as he works ya down to the bone.
Kings for the commonwealth and nobles for the forgotten man... they're the ones to follow because they're the ones with the plan.
We're gonna find someone who cleans up nice for you to get behind because this our time for finding peace of mind. In thirty years or more it won't matter what we started fighting for, just as long as we have a few seats on the floor.
If you keep finding the cause I'll keep finding the cash and we'll all keep faith that the company man has always got your back.

Oh Lord, we'll be working in the bowels of the gallows cleaning up your mess.
Forlorn and dejected, every single day bleeds in to the next.
Do you wanna go home? Do you hate to be alone? Do you hate to think of all the things that you won't ever own? Do you hate to log hours slingin' shit and growing old?
We never wanted anything so obscene but we'll write a letter to the man explaining everything.

No Holding Back

No holding back. Tell me your philosophy. I wanna know where I stand with you right now.
Don't give me your name. I don't have to ask for that. Just give it to me straight because I'm protected by a TV screen.
No holding back. I can see it on the tip of your tongue. I wanna know where I stand with you.
Hey you in the back, you're on the attack. I can tell cuz you stalk your prey like a tuxedo tiger cat.
Don't give me your name. I don't have to ask for that. Just give it to me straight because I'm protected by a TV screen.
No holding back. I can see it on the tip of your tongue. I wanna know where I stand with you this time.

Bury My Bones

I need a minute alone to gather my thoughts and remind myself that someday I'll be laid to waste and left to rot.
Someday I'll be leaving here and I'll probably be alone. Let me be very clear, you're not to bury my bones.
So take a minute today to gather all this waste. Try to leave this place better than it was before you came.
Someday I'll be leaving here and I'll probably be alone. Let me be very clear, you're not to bury my bones.
