American X |
| Close your eyes to the world that you see |
| And open wide to the one in your dreams |
| There’s nothing left that you wanna believe |
| Foreign eyes have been torn at the seams |
| You’d save yourself from a world without sin |
| You’re born again with a means to an end |
| Drawing lines in the palm of your hand |
| You’re holding on to all that you’ve planned |
| There’s nothing here that is left to be saved |
| Take a bow to the warrior state |
| You throw yourself to the perilous static |
| You shut your eyes but the death is romantic |
| You’ve sold your soul but it’s only a fake |
| You’d kill yourself for a piece of the take |
| You lose your mind in a world that leaves nothing |
| You’re holding on for asylum, reaching for air |
| It’s all you want |
| You know you’ll never forget |
| Your open arms |
| They only seem to surrender |
| It’s all you know |
| You know you’ll never regret |
| Your open arms |
| They only seem to surrender all that matters |
| No one needs what they think to survive |
| Pulled inside with an appetite blind |
| You feast your eyes on American sex |
| You sleep in shores of American bliss |
| Growing wings from the sorrowless excess |
| Your frozen eyes cut the chord to their last depth |
| You share your young with the wolves of a nation |
| There’s nothing left 'til you pray for salvation |
| It’s all you want |
| You know you’ll never forget |
| Your open arms |
| They only seem to surrender |
| It’s all you know |
| You know you’ll never regret |
| Your open arms |
| They only seem to surrender all that matters |
| I’m the last of the messiahs |
| All your lost star signs |
