I've listened to all of your nonsense 

I've tried to make sense of it 

It's left me broke and bleeding 

Slow burn, American Rage 

I take the hours they give me 

My wife sleeps all alone 

My son, he barely knows me 

I am American Rage 

My father sweat oil in a flat field 

My mother taught children in school 

We fought, and saved, and prayed 

We bleed American Rage 

I work every second I'm breathing 

I'm on the clock every second I'm alive 

But still I'm slowly sinking 

I am American Rage 

I'll be right behind you in your dreams, dear 

I'll be right behind you in your nightmare
