Dave Hause - Another Nightmare In America lyrics

You uppity little ghost Don't you even know you're dead We police the past You're future's in your head We've hollowed out our bibles to hide our gold and guns We've raised a silver gallows and the jury of your sons A tattered flag is crimson with a blood that can't be wrong Take one last drag of night air Cinch that blackness a lung As we hoist another nightmare Look away Look away Move along, nothing to see here Look away, hey you there Are you even supposed to be here We don't need a reason Keep your dreams where we can see them Like that, aww baby, right there It's just another nightmare in America It's just another nightmare in America Ain't no use praying There's no soul there save Boy you're just the difference 'tween the whole and a grave And that's exactly how they'll mark it Even if a camera see's us I fill out lots of paperwork and sleep like baby Jesus Look away Look away Move along, nothing to see here Look away, hey you there Are you even supposed to be here We don't need a reason Keep your dreams where we can see them Just like that, aww baby, right there It's just another nightmare in America It's just another nightmare in America That jury don't look so sad to me That conviction makes it right What you're calling a tragedy I call just another night We all pray to firepower And really what did you expect If you'll allow me to interpret The power to protect I'd say it's six in the chest, two in the neck Look away Look away Move along, nothing to see here Look away, hey you there Are you even supposed to be here We don't need a reason The bullets scream for freedom Just like that, aww baby, right there It's just another nightmare in America (Oh say, can you see) It's just another nightmare in America (Oh say, can you see) It's just another nightmare in America (Oh say, can you see) It's just another nightmare in America (Oh say you can see)
