Lyrics:

I’m wakin’ up to the American dream
can’t afford dinner and got debts bursting at the seams,
I went to school followed the rules, now I got a degree,
(but it doesn’t matter, there’s a million me’s)
yeah
I’ve got it all, man, I’m living it up,
payin’ two grand for a closet and a cup,
but I’m still thankful I’m alive,
Livin below my needs just hopin' to survive

Just think of all the money that I’ll never get to save
hope I’ll have enough to pay for my grave

What happened to common sense,
when life was intense but
everyone was partyin’
Can we go back to then?
can we go back to then

Goin’ out, not worryin’ about a psycho going on a shooting spree,
guess the government thinks its alright though,
They’ve got front seats to that show
yeah
Hold your babies, cause they’ll be cryin’
nuclear war’s on the horizon (horizon)
nuclear war’s on the horizon!

I lost another friend to suicide,
They said the meds would help, well I guess they lied,
Existential dread's really kickin in,
Goin’ to bed wonderin' if I'll wake up again,
yeah, I’ve got it all, yeah, I’ve got it all,
I've got it all, yeah, I've got it all, got it all
Wakin’ up, waking up, to the american dream!

What happened to common sense,
when life was intense but
everyone was partyin’
Can we go back to then?
can we go back to then

Goin’ out, not worryin’ about a psycho going on a shooting spree,
guess the government thinks its alright though,
They’ve got front seats to that show
yeah
Hold your babies, cause they’ll be cryin’
nuclear war’s on the horizon (horizon)
nuclear war’s on the horizon!

Nuclear war's on the horizon!

Nuclear war's on the horizon!
