American Way Video (MV)

I never had a chance of going
Somewhere with you
Thank God I didn't spend that time
With someone new
If every time I gave my heart,
Could rewind, realign, press restart,
I'd be the man that I thought I'd always be
And every time I write this song,
I get the feeling that I've been him all along.
Just wanna know what it means to be me
I just end up doing everything to lead me astray
Drinking too much and finding new love every day
Been a minute since I saw the sun,
But you don't get tired when you shoot like a gun.
I'm fine with a little pain
I'm stuck in the American way
It's just the thought that gets me going,
Under my skin.
And every time I self-adjust,
Right hand, my heart, in God we trust
I won't be a victim of society
And every time I hear this song,
I remember I've been f*cked up all along.
Just wanna know what it means to be free
I just end up doing everything to lead me astray
Drinking so much that I find a new love every day
Been a minute since I saw the sun,
But you don't get tired when you shoot like a gun.
I'm fine with a little pain
I'm stuck in the American way
The smell of shitty cologne
Everybody's smoking cigarettes and drinking alone
Serotonin overdosing, give you something more as they're closing
Medication for the sickness that you're self-diagnosing
And I wanna come home now
They said there's no going back
It's 6am and I can't find my bed
Put a hole in my soul
There I go
Doing everything that I can to lead me astray
We're drinking so much that I find a new love every day
Been a minute since I saw the sun,
But you don't get tired when you shoot like a gun
I'm fine with a little pain
I'm stuck in the American way
