America

Loyalty, I gave my loyalty
I gave my heart and my soul
My heart and soul and all I could give
For a reason to live
Fidelity, always fidelity
Putting everything I was aside
And I tried to be the best in their eyes
How could they do this
How could they do this
How could they do this to me?
Suffering, the pain and suffering
Being separate again, separate again
From what I hold dear
And the shame of the tears
Disappeared, the honors disappeared
With the betrayal of trust my body and being
They washed their hands of me
Once and for all
How could they do this
How could they do this
How could they do this to me?
This statistic won’t lay down
Take a number or stand in line
This statistic wants to hear
That they’re guilty about their crimes
This statistic won’t lay down
Take a number or stand in line
This statistic wants to hear
That they’re guilty about their crimes
America!
