American Lie

Can you see it in their eyes
 The madness and the pain
 A state of mind could rip the fearing face
 Off one man and conform
 They tried
 The new division of obedience
 A plan for all to heed
 They make the laws and preempt the debt
 We don't question how they do it
 Well, I can slowly feel this riddle come undone
 As I stand upon the face of regret and I realise what we've done
 Addiction among the artificial bliss, it's a false reality
 And all along and I'm so alive
 ♪
 Lack of cheer with shaded eyes
 The great American lie
 To believe we're ancestors of obedience
 Until the day you die
 Well, I can slowly feel this riddle come undone
 As I stand upon the face of regret and I realise what we've done
 Addiction among the artificial bliss, just a false reality
 And all along, oh, I'm so alive
