The Air We Breathe

	Why do you choose -
	To walk through life so blind
	Frozen Hearts -
	And empty minds
	Its everywhere -
	But we still don't see
	And I blame you -
	And you blame me
	And everyday -
	I slowly lose my mind
	And every time -
	I come up empty
	Something else inside me -
	Starts to die
	And I'm left -
	Alone and angry
	It's in the air -
	That we breathe each day
	It's what we call - the
	American Way
	It's in the way -
	That we treat each other
	We segregate -
	And we fight our brothers
	Why are we raised -
	To pledge allegiance
	To a flag -
	That rapes and bleeds us
	And we're all free -
	Or so we're told
	A country with a corrupted soul
	And evryday -
	We chase that dream
	With empty eyes -
	And painted smiles
	And everyday -
	We wait to die
	Still no one cares -
	And I'm just as guilty
	It's in the air -
	That we breathe each day
	It's what we call - the
	American Way
	It's in the way -
	That we treat each other
	We segregate -
	And we fight our brothers
	I only see -
	What they let me see
	I only do -
	What they tell me to
	No! - Yeah!
	Don't see -
	Don't speak -
	Don't feel -
	Don't think
	Compassion is a myth
	The sad truth -
	Is ignorance is bliss
	Cut from a heartless mold
	Stand up -
	Let the truth be told
	It's in the air -
	That we breathe each day
	It's what we call - the
	American Way
	It's in the way -
	That we treat each other
	We segregate -
	And we fight our brothers
