[00:10.50]Well they tied that yellow ribbon round the oak tree.
[00:15.38]They've worn out all the prayer in their hearts.
[00:20.52]All along thought they were routing for the home team,
[00:26.45]As they're sent to the game and torn apart.
[00:31.14]We twist this tourniquet upon the pipeline,
[00:35.42]That he carries all the pain in the world.
[00:40.22]As we blindly clap and cheer from the sidelines
[00:44.67]It's clear, on a losing streak from the very start.
[00:49.77]And that's where they found me,
[00:54.40]In the cemetary.
[01:00.14]A smoking gun in my hand,
[01:03.89]Now I'm damned for the land of the free.
[01:07.58]Sing with me,
[01:09.52]The american scream.
[01:21.14]They took that faded ribbon off the oak tree.
[01:26.21]They've worn out all the hope in their hearts.
[01:30.83]All along thought I was doing the right thing,
[01:36.02]Now I'm lying in a pool of my blood.
[01:41.58]And that's where she found me,
[01:46.02]In the cemetary,
[01:50.71]A smoking gun in my hand,
[01:53.34]Now I'm damned for the land of the free.
[01:58.15]Sing with me.
[02:00.65]And that's where she found me,
[02:05.36]In the cemetary,
[02:10.95]A smoking gun in my hand,
[02:13.57]Now I'm damned for the land of the free.
[02:18.32]Sing with me,
[02:20.20]The american scream.
[02:30.26]The american scream.
[02:40.76]And that's where she found me,
[02:45.85]In the cemetary,
[02:51.54]A smoking gun in my hand,
[02:53.98]Now I'm damned for the land of the free.
[02:58.73]Sing with me,
[03:00.61]The american scream.
