When we try to hard to be something we're not When we sell ourselves too short but it's the only chance we've got Wasting hours counting dollars staring face down at the floor Is this what you call life? You're not dreaming anymore
American Nightmare Is anyone out there who can save us from ourselves? I know that you don't care cause we're going nowhere And I'm stuck inside this hell So we say we're all okay Don't need you anyway If I die, at least we tried We refuse to waste our lives on the American Nightmare
When we go to far to prove that we still bleed If it's pain that makes us real then why can't I feel anything Second guesses, wasted chances, would you live for something more? Every hour is a year that goes by faster than before You're not dreaming anymore
American Nightmare Is anyone out there who can save us from ourselves? I know that you don't care cause we're going nowhere And I'm stuck inside this hell So we say we're all okay Don't need you anyway If I die, at least we tried We refuse to waste our lives on the American Nightmare
Back and forth, my life stuck on repeat Stand aside as they try to keep me sick of it all Fear controls the world, so set it off
American Nightmare Is anyone out there who can save us from ourselves? I know that you don't care cause we're going nowhere And I'm stuck inside this hell So we say we're all okay Don't need you anyway If I die, at least we tried We refuse to waste our lives on the American Nightmare
