American Nightmares
by Snoopy
< Verse One (Present) >
Without surprise, we end up paying the price for lies
Overpowered by devils, disguised in suits and ties
Waiting for the draft to be legalized, death rate multiplies
Might as well just send me over to Iraq paralyzed
Because there is no where to run when you face the gun
Will Mr. Bush be there to tell my parents he killed their son?
Telling America this is our opportunity, fight for immunity
Sounds good, till few soldiers come back with impunity
The bullets hit my skin, leaving George with his usual grin
I’m not fighting for a war that should have never beginned
This war has nothing to do with the falling of the Twins
The other war will never end, why we insist we can win?
One mad man taken out of power, another comes into power
His sights set on next hour, when they strike another tower
< Chorus >
You aren’t no real friend of mine
I’m having nightmares...
Looked in your eyes, and saw lies
I’m having nightmares...
Got me trapped behind enemy lines
I’m having nightmares...
We all die, secluded behind your disguise
American Nightmares...
You said America United, but how can we relate
To a President that keeps creating more hate?
TELL ME...
< Verse Two (Two Years From Now) >
Another war approved, more we fight less we improve
They sent me a uniform and gun, got me on the move
With a pack strapped to my back, sent me to attack
Uncle Sam sent me a number, now I’m forced to Iraq
Not use to this rigor, we gave the Pres to much vigor
Scope locked on the enemy, but it’s hard to pull the trigger
I know he has a mom and dad, probably a girlfriend
What gives me the right to play God, tell him his life reached it’s end?
Religion blend’n with hate, found himself stuck in this trend
Everyone telling him that and that, believes the only way to survive is to defend
With an A-K, he is probably just as scared as me
On the lookout for the land of the free, shoots the first he see’s
From now on out he is waking up from nightmares it seems
Forever haunted, all cuz Bush took away both our dreams
< Chorus >
You aren’t no real friend of mine
I’m having nightmares...
Looked in your eyes, and saw lies
I’m having nightmares...
Got me trapped behind enemy lines
I’m having nightmares...
We all die, secluded behind your disguise
American Nightmares...
You said America United, but how can we relate...
To a President that keeps creating more hate?
TELL ME...
Verse Three (Four Years From Now) >
Never saw me dieing alone, shot down in a battlefield
Left laying here, no longer can my wounds be healed
You can only hide for so long, lies no longer concealed
Coming out of the closet, Bush’s truth was revealed
Said it was what America needed, but it only meets his needs
The rich live in greed, while the next generation bleeds
But this is good for our country someway, some how
If you really want to get rid of us, just shoot me now
Using us as human body bags, trapped in a draft
Add support in the Middle East, less here, comes another aircraft
This time it will be aimed at the White House, straight for you
Another hole that slowly buries the Red, White, and Blue
Lay here alone at night, with no hope in sight
Love this nation so I fight, died for something that wasn’t right
