Hypernova - American Dream

I know that I'll never go back home
To the life I had, the life that I had known

They put me on the cover of their magazines
Scarlet skies and broken dreams
They promised me that we would change the world
For better or for worst

All I wanted was the rock 'n roll
All I wanted was to see the world
But happenings on the streets
Are mingo with the cooch and pit

Is this not, the life that you wanted
You wanted to have?
Is this not, how you imagine it would be
When you would start to live in Hollywood

They tell me to dress so they scared
Look so though like you just don't care
We'll package you, and put you on display

And everyone gets their car
And we'll cruise down the hole and drive
And we'll all feel so alive and well
This is well, this is what I've waited for

Is this not, the life that you wanted
You wanted to have?
Is this not, how you imagine it would be
When you would start to live in Hollywood

What have we done?
What have we become?

Nobody grows, oh, in Hollywood
With your plastic smile, and your VIPs
Your credit cards and your fansy hills
You are the modern day Robin Hood with a twist

Who takes from the poor
And gives to the rich
Who takes from the poor
And gives to the rich

You're all so dead inside
