American Slang

Look what you started

I seem to be coming out of my skin

Look what you've forgotten here

The bandages just don't keep me in

And when it was over, I woke up alone

And when it was over, I woke up alone

And they cut me to ribbons and taught me to drive

I got your name tattooed inside of my arm

I called for my father but my father had died

While you told me fortunes, in american slang

Look at the damage

The fortunes came for the richer men

While we're left with gallows

Waiting for us liars to come down and hang

And when it was over, I woke up alone

And when it was over, I woke up alone

And they cut me to ribbons and taught me to drive

I got your name tattooed inside of my arm

I called for my father but my father had died

While you told me fortunes, in american slang

And here's where we died that time last year

And here's where the angels and devils meet

And you can dance with the queen if you need

And she will always keep your cards close to her heart

Before they tear you apart

And they cut me to ribbons and taught me to drive

I got your name tattooed inside of my arm

I called for my father but my father had died

We called for our fathers but our fathers had died

While you told me fortunes, in american slang

While you told me fortunes, in american slang
