Hey little sister do you miss your little brothers when you lie awake at night? Hey little brothers did you kiss your little sisters when you said goodbye? Hey little mommies did you believe the man on the television set? Hey little daddies when you sent your sons to war did they come back dead? Hate War Love I'm the American Life Sex Death I'm the American Fear World Pain I'm the American Dream So around and around we go and where we're all heading everybody knows Is it life? Is it art? Is it somewhere in between? Sell the blood of the children to grease the machine It's the almighty dollar that makes the politicians move and the stars and the stripes, the symbols abused They justify their lies with moral abrasion but it's money and the power that make the equation of Hate War Love I'm the American Life Sex Death I'm the American Fear World Pain I'm the American dream I'm your creation I am your son I'm your new citizen And I love my guns I want to tear you down I want to break you up Don't wonder why I exist You made this of Hate War Love I'm the American Life Sex Death I'm the American Fear World Pain I'm the American dream Did it all go away? Did you push it away? Did you make it go away? Did it all go away? Did you hide it away? Did you take it all away? Did it all go away? Did you blame it away? Did it make it all OK? Did it all go away? Did you kill it away? Did it go straight the fuck away? Hate War Love I'm the American Life Sex Death I'm the American Fear World Pain I'm the American dream I'm the American dream
