American Tragedy
Waking up to another story
Another kid shoots his classmates down
Waking up to a story just breaking
A man with a badge shoots a man with no gun
Kids are waking up to a nightmare
Locked inside a detention center
But the world it keeps on turning
In the face of another American
Tragedy is the game
Now that you're dead, they wont remember your name
All tragedies are the same
Ain't no politician gonna make a real change
Oh tragedy! Oh Tragedy!
To them it's just a game
You watch the Fox News or CNN host
Their precious ratings are what matter to them most
Tucker Carlson or Anderson Cooper
Would lose their job if this world was better
So we tune in to another nightmare
Another politician's face of American
Tragedy is the game
Now that you're dead, they wont remember your name
All tragedies are the same
Ain't no politician gonna make a real change
Oh tragedy! Oh Tragedy!
To them it's just a game
Another kid shoots his classmates down
Waking up to a story just breaking
A man with a badge shoots a man with no gun
Kids are waking up to a nightmare
Locked inside a detention center
But the world it keeps on turning
In the face of another American
Tragedy is the game
Now that you're dead, they wont remember your name
All tragedies are the same
Ain't no politician gonna make a real change
Oh tragedy! Oh Tragedy!
To them it's just a game
You watch the Fox News or CNN host
Their precious ratings are what matter to them most
Tucker Carlson or Anderson Cooper
Would lose their job if this world was better
So we tune in to another nightmare
Another politician's face of American
Tragedy is the game
Now that you're dead, they wont remember your name
All tragedies are the same
Ain't no politician gonna make a real change
Oh tragedy! Oh Tragedy!
To them it's just a game
