American Dream

It was on our wedding day

When my heart began to stray

Never thought I'd make such a big mistake

Throw my life away

I've gone days without food

I've went weeks without sleep

Keeping this in

I've got cuts I can't close

I've got wounds that won't heal

It's all your fault

I've been shattered and wrecked

My hands covered in blood

Scars on my skin

I forgot how to feel

Now I'm weak with deceit

My skin is paper thin

We get through this

Feeling it, keeping it, holdin' it in

We go through this

Over and over again

I'd go years without tears

In a life with no fear

A life without you

Now I'm breaking my back as

I cover my tracks

My skin is paper thin once again

We get through this

Feeling it, keeping it, holdin' it in

We go through this

Over and over again

I've gone days without food

I've went weeks without sleep

Keeping this in

I've got cuts I can't close

I've got wounds that won't heal

It's all your fault

My American dream

Wasn't ever to lie, steal and cheat

He won't leave her for this

What's the point?

I wish they would die

We get through this

Feeling it, keeping it, holdin' it in

We go through this

Over and over again

We get through this

Feeling it, keeping it, holdin' it in

We go through this

Over and over again

This was not a test

This was all for real

This was not a test

This was all for real

This was not a test

This was all for real

This was not a test

This was all for real
