THE AMERICAN DREAM
This town's a cemetery
Of dead dreams, it's very scary
Hearing old friends screaming out my name
They all must be exhausted
Good thing they're handed a coffin
Told to shut up and smile while they wave
You're dreaming of some day, hitting up Broadway
With only a one-way from this lot
And you're getting closer to finding the closure
To say that it's over
All of your values are losing their value
The American dream is just fool's gold
I'm bringing you bad news, I'm sorry I have to
The American dream is just fool's gold
This town's a monument
Full of backhanded compliments
And all that empty something I enjoy
A bunch of brainwashed kids that they'll try to prescribe
Whatever dumps you down, sick o' earning your stripes
I think it's time for you to get your memory wiped
Like I did
All of your values are losing their value
The American dream is just fool's gold
I'm bringing you bad news, I'm sorry I have to
The American dream is just fool's gold
Let's grab all our pitchforks
We're starting a riot
Let's try to enjoy your
Quarter-life crisis
So tell all your best friends (so tell all your best friends)
We're lighting our torches (we're lighting our torches)
'Cause we've hit a dead end ('cause we've hit a dead end)
'Cause we've hit a dead end!
All of your values are losing their value
The American dream is just fool's gold
I'm bringing you bad news, I'm sorry I have to
The American dream is just fool's gold
The American dream is just fool's gold (just fool's gold)
The American dream is just fool's gold (just fool's gold)
I'm bringing you bad news, I'm sorry I have to
The American dream is just fool's gold
Of dead dreams, it's very scary
Hearing old friends screaming out my name
They all must be exhausted
Good thing they're handed a coffin
Told to shut up and smile while they wave
You're dreaming of some day, hitting up Broadway
With only a one-way from this lot
And you're getting closer to finding the closure
To say that it's over
All of your values are losing their value
The American dream is just fool's gold
I'm bringing you bad news, I'm sorry I have to
The American dream is just fool's gold
This town's a monument
Full of backhanded compliments
And all that empty something I enjoy
A bunch of brainwashed kids that they'll try to prescribe
Whatever dumps you down, sick o' earning your stripes
I think it's time for you to get your memory wiped
Like I did
All of your values are losing their value
The American dream is just fool's gold
I'm bringing you bad news, I'm sorry I have to
The American dream is just fool's gold
Let's grab all our pitchforks
We're starting a riot
Let's try to enjoy your
Quarter-life crisis
So tell all your best friends (so tell all your best friends)
We're lighting our torches (we're lighting our torches)
'Cause we've hit a dead end ('cause we've hit a dead end)
'Cause we've hit a dead end!
All of your values are losing their value
The American dream is just fool's gold
I'm bringing you bad news, I'm sorry I have to
The American dream is just fool's gold
The American dream is just fool's gold (just fool's gold)
The American dream is just fool's gold (just fool's gold)
I'm bringing you bad news, I'm sorry I have to
The American dream is just fool's gold
