lyrics

It's easy to get lost
The great American folk tale
God damn shoot em up sort em out
It's easy to get caught up
In the American folk tale
It ain't a paradise as far as I can tell

You will get swallowed up
By the American folk tale
It will consume and spit you out
Or you can fall in line
The great American folk tale
God damn shoot me up slow me down

Head west
Young man
Find you a home
Lay waste
Conquest
You made it your own
Take heed
Take heads
Reap what you sow
Manifest
God's will
Carve it in stone

You might get written out
Of the American folk tale
You got a minor role at best
You will get left behind
In the American folk tale
But at least you had a chance

Go north
Old man
Pick up your bones
Lay down
Regret
You let it be sold
Struggle
Suffer
To sit on throne
Worthless
Loveless
You died alone

The great American folk tale
It ain't a paradise
The great American folk tale
It's just a lie
