Boom, boom, boom!
America blown to smithereens.
Your friends, your home, your life, your family.

Boom, boom, boom! Smithereens
I wish I could say this was unforeseen.

Well, they're planting the seeds,
For destruction's eve.
Then take away your rights to keep your free.

Yeah, they're planting the seeds,
For destruction's eve.
Then take away your rights to keep your free on your knees.

Still the vengeance of the world will target you!
Down on you?
Down on you?

Our flesh turned to ash,
Will scatter in the wind.

Boom, boom, boom!
Such a wicked force you had never seen.
Though countless times it happened in your name.

Boom, boom, boom!
Your apathy comes with a price tag after all it seems.

Well, they're planting the seeds,
For destruction's eve.
Then take away your rights to keep your free.

Yeah, they're planting the seeds,
For destruction's eve.
Then take away your rights to keep your free on your knees.

Still the vengeance of the world will target you!

When you don't control your own government, people want to kill you.
(People want to kill you)

When you don't control your own government, people want to kill you.
(People want to kill you)
