Taps For the Death of the American Dream Lyrics

i know it seems so right sometimes
but you can't come down onto my side
you've got your own world war to fight
i know it feels so wrong tonight
but i can't come down onto your side
i've got my own world war to fight
listen, as long as it means something,
you never have to explain anything ever again
and i'd love to be there when you win
but i can't come down onto your side
i've got my own class war
i've got my own unseen force
i've got my own locked doors
i've got my own trojan horse
i've got my own folklore
i've got my own four score
i've got my own king george
i've got my own michael moore
i've got my own hardcore
i've got my own message board
i've got my own east coast tour
i've got my own job outsourced
i've got my own chain store
i've got my own entrepreneur
i've got my own report
i've got my own disclosed source
i've got my own high court
i've got my own nineteen eighty four
i've got my own world war to fight.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
