To America:

America I've given you everything
I'm nothing no more
you've taken my life
I'm not in my right mind
and, no, I won't stop until I feel better
You can take your war and your bombs to hell for all I care
you can take Brittney and K-Fed with you
and myspace and the O.C. and Lost
You've destroyed my friends
and my family
and I'm so freaking sick of it
When will you be beautiful again
when will you stop fighting yourself
when will you realize that we are a people, not factions of Right and Left
it's hurting me to say that you're destroying yourself
and the rest of the world
Screw terrorism and weapons of mass destruction
what happened to the yippies
I miss Communism and Socialism and I won't apologize
I'm not leaving home until I'm sure I won't get shot
I don't want to be a soccer mom and I think that's just fine
when will you be worthy of your freedoms
America, when will you be the land of the free and the home of the brave
I'm talking to you
when will you stand up and be heard
when will you practice what you preach
I've seen my nearest and dearest murdered by you
and I won't stand for it any longer
you've taken two too many in this war
and you've taken the rest in this society
where they're always so close to this unreachable money
and these hallucinagens of prosperity
stop pushing me because I won't change my mind
when will we have liberty
America, I'm afraid that I am you
and I don't want to be
you're not anything holy anymore
I can't go into the cathedral and weep and pray on the steps anymore
because I have nothing left to pray for
America, you've died
and I fear you've gone to hell
where all you're money is burning and you're chsing it into the flames
America, you've lost you're morals
the devil bought them with Microsoft
This is what I'm hearing
is it what I'm supposed to think
we've become primal warmongers,
bullying the world for its lunch money
America, America, what will we do
America, I hate you and I'm through
