I am alienated in this place that I call home I am nothing in your eyes, nothing but a waste of time Since my childhood, you've taught me to believe in liberty But now, it seems you're trying to take this away from me
Stop, take a look back Tell me: What do you see? People buying their way through life Trying to fit in this so called "Democracy"
It's sickening to see you buying your way through life
Give some power to a coward, and he will abuse it Hand a gun to a coward, and he'll only use it To shoot down all that's right Cowardice will be our demise As people we must stand Let us not forget: By the people, for the people
The words that burn at your throat, Why don't you swallow them whole? Instead of spreading all the fear and lies That you've ever sold To the blind, to the weak To the innocent, oh the innocent
All the blood these troops have spilled All the awful things they've done Just so you could say "God Bless America"
America.
The words that burn at your throat, Why don't you swallow them whole? Instead of spreading all the fear and lies That you've ever sold To the blind, to the weak To the innocent, oh the innocent To the innocent, oh the innocence

I am alienated in this place that I call home I am nothing in your eyes Nothing but a waste
The words that burn at your throat, Why don't you swallow them whole? Instead of spreading all the fear and lies That you've ever sold To the blind, to the weak To the innocent, oh the innocent To the innocent, oh the innocence
