American Dreams Lyrics - Papa Roach

It feels like, American dreams caught on fire 

We're tearing down the white picket fences 

A soldier bleeds, and a soldier dies 

Have you ever thought that war was a sickness 

I'm a son of it, fucked up from it, 

Casualty of my family 'cause of it 

We dare to dream, or live to die 

Reunited by the truth at the right time 

Something's wrong here 

Or so it seems 

Cause I'm not sleeping in

American dreams, 

American lies 

We're trying to see through the smoke in our eyes 

So give me the truth 

Don't tell me your lies 

Cause it's harder to breathe 

When you're buried alive 

by American dreams 

With every bullet hole, there's a blood stain 

Another family that's struggling to keep sane 

Cause their neighborhood, ain't a safe place 

Got us all wearing black every Sunday 

and I'm growing numb to the violence 

Sing along to the sounds of the sirens 

We're trying to keep ourselves alive 

But it's hard to get by when it feels like 

Photos 

Something's wrong here 

Or so it seems 

Cause I'm not sleeping in 

American dreams, 

American lies 

We're trying to see through the smoke in our eyes 

So give me the truth 

Don't tell me your lies 

Cause it's harder to breathe 

When you're buried alive 

by American dreams 

Cause I'm not sleeping in 

American dreams 

American lies 

We're trying to see through the smoke in our eyes 

So give me the truth 

Don't tell me your lies 

'Cause it's harder to breathe 

When you're buried alive
