Lyrics

[Verse 1] A devil smile from the gambler The deuces are wild I see the world through a golden eye Feels like dancing on the edge of the world Left for dead, left unfurled Can't catch my breath Is this what I deserve? [Pre-Chorus] I'm below but I wanna be high [Chorus] 'Cause I'm trapped inside the American dream The truth is not what it seems Breaking my neck in a cold cold sweat to be free 'Cause I feel the stare and I feel the fear I can't break through or get anywhere Breaking my neck in a cold cold sweat to be free The American dream [Verse 2] All my senses in overload on this dusty road A raging iron fist in a velvet glove This burning chill's running up my spine Terror in the back of my mind Drinking the Kool-Aid 'cause I'm left behind [Pre-Chorus] And now I'm below but I wanna be high [Chorus] 'Cause I'm trapped inside the American dream The truth is not what it seems Breaking my neck in a cold cold sweat to be free 'Cause I feel the stare and I feel the fear I can't break through or get anywhere Breaking my neck in a cold cold sweat to be free The American dream [Pre-Chorus] The road to hell is paved with honest lies I'm stuck below but I wanna be high [Chorus] Trapped inside the American dream The truth is not what it seems Breaking my neck in a cold cold sweat to be free 'Cause I'm trapped inside the American dream The truth is not what it seems Breaking my neck in a cold cold sweat to be free 'Cause I feel the stare and I feel the fear I can't break through or get anywhere Breaking my neck in a cold cold sweat to be free In the American, in the American, in the American dream
