I wouldn't call this a victory

We pick sides and fight because we can't agree to disagree

You never wanna listen, you just speak

Light a match to the bridge, but there's no difference between you and me

Show your teeth

Try to cover up your insecurity

Underneath

But throwing salt in the wound won't stop the bleed

I don't know who I can trust anymore

I need a he-said-she-said reset

Give me truth, give me something to believe in

Sometimes I feel like we're asking for more

We live for the war, but we don't know what we're dying for

We don't know what we're dying for

We live and die in desire of our pride

Look away from corruption 'cause what's out of spite is out of mind

Show your teeth

Try to cover up your insecurity

Underneath

But this is not what it means to be free

I don't know who I can trust anymore

I need a he said-she-said reset

Give me truth, give me something to believe in

Sometimes I feel like we're asking for more

We live for the war, but we don't know what we're dying for

We don't know what we're dying for

We don't know what we're dying for

Vultures circle in the land of the free

The American dream is tearing at the seams

The American dream is never what it seems

I don't know who I can trust anymore

I need a he said-she-said reset

Give me truth, give me something to believe in

Sometimes I feel like we're asking for more

We live for the war, but we don't know what we're dying for

We don't know what we're dying for

We don't know what we're dying for

We don't know what we're dying for

We don't know what we're dying for
