Sleepwalking Through the American Dream

Sleepwalking Through The American Dream

The devil said

Don’t say you heard this from me

But contrary to popular belief

I’m not a thief

I make my living honestly

Honestly I cant tell tell a lie

One day your heart will bleed dry

And ill help you leave your mark

Before you die

People are starved for a terrified heart

Just undo the tourniquet

And let it bleed

Tie it umbilical

To your sleeve

And you’ll get everything you want

And everything you need

You’re sleepwalking through the american dream

The devil said

Don’t make a deal unless it’s guaranteed

But i’m not sure I understand what that means

I’m caught between what I want

And what I need

Kid wake up and see that things aren’t

Just what they seem

You’re sleepwalking through the american dream
