And they think they can throw us all away
They dissect everything we say
Hey, hey, don't want to see the
Hey, hey, don't want to be the
There's got to be a better way
Beat me to the ground and take my breath
But you can't take who I am
'Cause we point the finger
Can even take the heart inside my chest
Beat me to the ground and take my breath
We are America right now
Hey, hey
Woah, woah
Well, how can I be the same? How can I say the blame?
There's got to be a better way
How come I am so tired of all these charades?
I'd give it all away for so much less
And you can take the one thing I have left
Woah, woah
How can I be the one? How can I hold the gun?
How can I see if everyone else is to blame?
Think everyone else is to blame, blame
And I swear we were born to let you down
Woah, woah
To try to make us feel this way
To try to make us feel this way
Woah, woah
Can even take the heart inside my chest
I'd give it all away for so much less
We gotta stop it before it's all too late
They dissect everything we say
And you can take the one thing I have left
We scream but never make a sound
But you can't take who I am
And you can take the one thing I have left
We point but don't know which direction
And you can take the one thing I have left
