The American Dream

Is it such a shame

to live against the grain?

In a life where we’re all dying

why do it all the same?

The American dream

Is a nightmare to me

I want to escape it

Before it catches up with me

Don’t want to settle down

I just want to wander around

I don’t want to look back on a wasted life

When I’m lying 6 feet in the ground

I’m not like everybody else

And they’re not like one another

But we’re all just pawns in a game

And become one in the same

Everybody has issues

And everyone feels pain

Everyone has something to hate

And people to blame
