What'd you think would happen?

You'd take out everyone in your way?

So desperate for control

Burn it all down, dig your own grave

What did you think would happen?

We'd submit to every empty threat?

So desperate for control

See what you get

Blinded by deception

Driven by hate

Fooled by the smoke and mirrors

You took the bait

Blinded by deception

Driven by hate

Fooled by the smoke and mirrors

You sealed your fucking fate

Now it's too late

I see no end in sight

Stopping at nothing, crossing every line

I see no end in sight

I see no end in sight

You only hear what you want to hear

You only see what you want to see

Oh

Is this your idea of the American dream?

Is this your idea of the American dream?
