Our Only Hope - The American Dream текст песни

Исполнитель: Our Only Hope

альбом: The American Dream


The American Dream
Is a ghost story
To scare you stiff and keep you still
They weave the worry into your collar
Breathe down your neck, cold chill
Don't teach you when you're young
Or tell you when you're older
They'll greet you with the right hand
While the left goes for the holster
The real world is a blindfold
Now get in line and do what you're told
Face value is a mask
Worn to throw us off
Fed all the hearsay
From the tablecloth
Don't believe anything that you hear
And only half of what you see
Don't be so naive
Understand that I've been doing this
I've been doing that
Follow all these rules
Stickin' to the path
See the aftermath that I have witnessed
You can see that I'm a victim of their little games
Lock me in the cage, throw away the key
Strip me of my freedom, but you wait and see
My energy's been building for a minute
I'm about to kill it, make 'em feel it
And I've been beat down so much
That their threats ain't phasing me
I have a hunch what's really going on
The real world is a blindfold
Now get in line and do what you're told
Face value is a mask
Worn to throw us off
Fed all the hearsay
From the tablecloth
Don't believe anything that you hear
And only half of what you see
Don't be so naive
Intelligence is artificial
Ignorance subliminal
They stole our character and called us criminals
Intelligence is artificial
Ignorance subliminal
They stole our character and called us criminals
Has freedom become
Just a figure of speech
A myth just like
The American dream
Face value is a mask
Worn to throw us off
Fed all the hearsay
From the tablecloth
Don't believe anything that you hear
And only half of what you see
Don't be so naive
Intelligence is artificial
Ignorance subliminal
They stole our character and called us criminals
Intelligence is artificial
Ignorance subliminal
They stole our character and called us criminals
Face value is a mask
Worn to throw us off
Face value is a mask
Worn to throw us off
