Checkmate |
| Watch the gears grind off their teeth |
| The screeching halt machine digging heels in disbelief |
| Two reactional identities, opposing policies |
| A bait-and-switch routine |
| Double-takes and double-speak |
| Still scripting the façade |
| Asphyxiate and choke the truth |
| All hail the money god |
| Repeat, echo, refrain |
| It's all the same |
| So deafening |
| Repeat, echo, refrain |
| A consequence |
| We asked for this |
| Repeat, echo, refrain |
| No, never again |
| The American scream |
| A coup d'état on full display, a liar's sick charade |
| A traitor's grand parade |
| Narcissistic masquerades for those without a say |
| Systematic disarray |
| Divide and conquer and close them in |
| And bury secrets deep |
| Make America hate again |
| And bleed the sheep to sleep |
| Repeat, echo, refrain |
| It's all the same |
| So deafening |
| Repeat, echo, refrain |
| A consequence |
| We asked for this |
| Repeat, echo, refrain |
| No, never again |
| The American scream |
| (Scream) |
| You try to pick the lesser of |
| But evil doesn't come in twos |
| Bellicose and balkanized |
| A sinking ship of fools |
| So kiss the hangman as you drop |
| The rotting corpse of decency |
| Just another casualty of the American scream |
| Scream |
| (The American scream) |
| Repeat, echo, refrain |
| It's all the same |
| So deafening |
| Repeat, echo, refrain |
| A consequence |
| We asked for this |
| Repeat, echo, refrain |
| No, never again |
| The American scream |
| Never again |
