Nightmare

Thunder in the storm today
The people couldn't roll away
The north side won't be weeping at his final hour
Knife they put in our back
Drawing closer every time
Cut the red tape at the camp today
Where the dreams they had would fade away
They flew his name in lights as a progressive power
Life that's lived authentic
Is now guilty of a crime

It's a nightmare
Running free from every wrong they wrote for you
Everything you wanna see
They kept right out of view

And we'll see the place in flames again
We will see the place ablaze again

I saw the news today
And ordered chinese takeaway
I couldn't be awoken by the cell phone towers
Young me wrapped in plastic
Old me waiting out in line
I'm gonna scream it in your ear
Run you the fuck out of here
To join the rest of the monsters of history
And we'll pay no mind

It's a nightmare
Running free from every wrong they wrote for you
Everything you wanna see
They kept right out of view

All these hours sucked up by
A vampire that's bleeding us all dry
A therapist whose pockets full
Of misery they made for you and I
All these hills and valleys I have traveled in my head
A bakery for everyone
In the conquest of bread

It's a nightmare
Running free from every wrong they wrote for you
Everything you wanna see
They kept right out of view
