American Man

[Verse 1]
Green ties pull tight like nooses
Handshake, I'm taking in
Dreams die, in time, I'll lose it
Farewell, my innocence

[Pre-Chorus]
My worth is measured in signs
Next to numbers on the line
These walls have ruined my eyes
And there's no end of this in sight

[Chorus]
Is this all I dreamed of
When I was young and fearless?
Now my days slip by from nine to five
And I, I can't do this
No, I, I can't do this

[Verse 2]
Green eyes entice excuses
Handshake, I'm caving in
White lies divide, I choose this
Farewell, my faithfulness

[Pre-Chorus]
I've been seduced by my greed
And my mistress calling me
My fingers scratch 'till they bleed
And don't I deserve what makes me happy?

[Chorus]
Is this all I dreamed of
When I was young and fearless?
Now my days slip by from nine to five
And I, I can't do this
No, I, I can't do this

[Bridge]
I don't see how this could be worth living for
No, I don't see, there has to be something more in this

[Chorus]
Is this all I dreamed of
When I was young and fearless?
Now my days slip by from nine to five
And I, I can't do this
No, I, I can't do this
