American Dictation - Death Of An Era

I’m fucking torn by indecision, divided into two worlds

Everything I am is torn asunder, and taken all away

All that I know

This tormented world around me

I’m failing to show (and I can’t find myself)

I’m failing to know (and I can’t find myself)

Truth is, we’re not so free

I hate that I call this my home

This is crushing me (this is crushing me)

Born in a prison without the walls

I can’t keep shut, my heart is dying to speak of what is always avoided

Can’t you see, you’re slaves to ignorance (ignorance)

Cut your chain

I’m expected to follow this command of what you are

But tell me where have you gotten yourself when you hate yourself?

Living is not a sin, just cause I live like this

I won’t be what you want, stop

I will not live your life.

(fuck your life)

You can’t force me to give up mine

All that I know

This tormented world around me

I’m failing to show (and I can’t find myself)

I’m failing to know (and I can’t find myself)

There’s a flame igniting

From the stone steps of freedom’s face

Destroying everything that kept us from all this hate

There’s no fucking escape

This nation stands in its own way

All that I know

This tormented world around me

I’m failing to show (and I can’t find myself)

I’m failing to know (and I can’t find myself)
