"The American Dream" lyrics
"The American Dream"
A devil smile from the gambler
The deuces are wild
I see the world through a golden eye
Feels like dancing on the edge of the world
Left for dead, left unfurled
Can't catch my breath
Is this what I deserve?
I'm below but I wanna be high
Cause I'm trapped inside the American dream
The truth is not what it seems
Breaking my neck in a cold cold sweat to be free
Cause I feel the stare and I feel the fear
Can't break through can't get anywhere
Breaking my neck in a cold cold sweat to be free
The American dream
All my senses in overload on this dusty road
A raging iron fist in a velvet glove
This burning chill's running up my spine
Terror in the back of my mind
Drinking the kool aid, cause I'm left behind
And now I'm below but I wanna be high
Cause I'm trapped inside the American dream
The truth is not what it seems
Breaking my neck in a cold cold sweat to be free
Cause I feel the stare and I feel the fear
Can't break through can't get anywhere
Breaking my neck in a cold cold sweat to be free
The American dream
The road to hell is paved with honest lies
I'm stuck below but I wanna be high
Trapped inside the American dream
The truth is not what it seems
Breaking my neck in a cold cold sweat to be free
Cause I'm trapped inside the American dream
The truth is not what it seems
Breaking my neck in a cold cold sweat to be free
Cause I feel the stare and I feel the fear
Can't break through can't get anywhere
Breaking my neck in a cold cold sweat to be free
In the American, in the American, in the American dream

Airbourne - "Too Much, Too Young, Too Fast" Some people like to make all the rules
And tell others what to do
They make it their way so they always win
And the others always lose
Street gangs and madmen
How they wage their private wars...
Y&T - "Contagious" Run it through a red light
Twice the speed of sound
Drive it on the white line
Pull it in and out
Grab the wheel and take a chance at luck

Sabaton - "Kingdom Come" See the white light
The light within
Be your own disciple
Fan the sparks of will
For all of us waiting
Our kingdom will come
Rays of power shining
Rays of magic fall

Europe - "Rock The Night" I've gone through changes
I've gone through pain
But there's not enough reason for me to go insane
I know the feeling, just when it grows
I'm in a rage up from my head down to my toes
You know it...
The Hellacopters - "Reap A Hurricane" Let it rain, let it pour
Got a lot, gonna get some more
Don't you worry
There's no need
Now move on, there's nothing here to see
There ain't no reason to be satisfied
No reason to be restrained
