AMERICAN ZOMBIE
American
American
American zombie
Off with the backlight
And it got real silent
There's an echo in the hallway (there's an echo in the hallway)
But it sounds like a siren
And my mind's so distant (distant) (I'm scared to face it)
And the static screens (the static screens) have been covering
All the wounds in me (all the wounds in me)
And it's hard to breathe
No space for memory, I'm losing me (I'm losing me)
I'm losing me (I'm losing me)
Give me a single reason to endure
Tell me, should I blame it on myself or you?
And I'll dance with the ghost of who I used to be
But I'm just another
American zombie
American
American
American zombie (hey)
American
American
American zombie
Don't know who I am anymore
I'm so disillusioned to the point where I've lost all I own
I just pray in the end
This is all in my head
'Cause I feel like lately I've been crawling out of my grave
But I can't see myself clearly in the mirror, can't save me
Nobody can hear me, I guess I'm a disgrace
Give me a single reason to endure
Tell me, should I blame it on myself or you?
I can't breathe and my wounds are still tender
Yeah, I'm running for my life but I know there's no escaping you
Heart beats, but there's no life inside me
Marching to the beat of a broken plea
And I'll dance with the ghost of who I used to be
But I'm just another American zombie
Am I losing my mind?
If all I do (if all I do) is fade behind the shadows in the corner of my room
'Til I'm barely alive
I'm half consumed
Divided from reality and hiding from the truth
'Cause it's easier to run from sanity that's undone (American)
And compromised from a moment of silence
But I'm becoming so detached from the rational thoughts in my head
That I slowly start suffocating (American) whenever they come back again
