Ryan Oakes - The American Dream Lyrics

This towns a cemetery
Of dead dreams it's very scary,
Hearing old friends
Screaming out my name,

They all must be exhausted,
Good thing they're handed a coffin,
Told to shut up,
And smile while they wave

You're dreaming of someday, hitting a run way,
With only a one way from this lie,

And you're getting closer, to finding the closure,
To say that it's over,


HOOK:

All of your values,
Are losing their value,
The American dream is just fools gold

I'm bringing you bad news,
I'm sorry I have to,
The American dream is just fools gold


POSSIBLE VERSE 2 LYRICS:

This towns a monument,
Full of back handed compliments,
And All that envy's
Something I enjoy

A bunch of brain washed kids that they'll try to perscribe,
Whatever dumbs you down say you're earning your stripes,
I think it's time for you to get your memory wiped,
Like I did,


HOOK:

All of your values,
Are losing their value,
The American dream is just fools gold

I'm bringing you bad news,
I'm sorry I have to,
The American dream is just fools gold


Bridge Lyrics:

Let's grab all our pitch forks, were starting a riot,
Let's try to enjoy your, quarter life crisis,

So tell all your best friends, were lighting our torches
Cuz we've hit a dead end, and this town is boring



HOOK:

All of your values,
Are losing their value,
The American dream is just fools gold

I'm bringing you bad news,
I'm sorry I have to,
The American dream is just fools gold
