Lyrics

Close the door
I swallowed the key
I swallowed my words
I swallow everything
Are they right?
Am I so wrong?
Am I insane for playing along?
Don't wanna be normal again
Normal was never an option
I don't wanna listen
I wanna scream
I want a new American dream
I'm a break in the wood
While a lark in the mud
I'm covered in shame
Covered in someone's blood
The bodies of children
The ashes, the flower
The empire watches from their lithium towers
Don't wanna be normal again
Normal was never an option
I don't wanna listen
I wanna scream
I want a new American dream
What's justice when the prisons are paid?
What's retribution from inside the institution?
What's freedom when our minds are in cages?
Building the future
We were stuck in the fucking middle ages
Don't want to be normal again
It never was and it's never been
It was a lie that we'd buy and they'd commodify
And now the revolution is being monetized
Don't want to feel normal anymore
I just want to burn it down to the floor
Listen to the cries of the dying man
Listen to me
I'm the new American
