American Joy Lyrics by Diveliner, Brevin Kim

American Punishment

2023

[Verse 1: ​diveliner]
I swear one of these days I'll feel alive
The kids been blowing kisses at the sky
I been washing my hands with chlorine and lye
(Thank you man)
Will I learn to stop banging on my chest and just hang out?
But baby, I still made it out on my own
Concrete gold on my soul and I really made it now
I got bands and a [?], I'm a hurricane, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, maybe I should wait it out

[Chorus: ​diveliner]
American joy
We're all killing ourselves
'Til the blood runs out
'Til the blood runs out
I'm an American boy
I'm stupid as hell
You can bleed me out
'Til the blood runs out

[Verse 2: Brevin Kim]
Oh boy, I shouldn't give up on myself
I, if I do write it down and, make a song about it
And I remember, i was everyone
Felt so small standing next to America
All the youth in the palm of my hand
And I long for the things that I am

[Chorus: ​diveliner]
American joy
We're all killing ourselves
'Til the blood runs out
'Til the blood runs out
I'm an American boy
I'm stupid as hell
You can bleed me out
'Til the blood runs out

[Bridge: ​diveliner]
'Til the blood runs out
'Til the blood runs out
'Til the blood runs out
'Til the fucking blood runs out

[Chorus: ​diveliner]
American joy
We're all killing ourselves
'Til the blood runs out
'Til the blood runs out
I'm an American boy
I'm stupid as hell
You can bleed me out
'Til the fucking blood runs out
American joy
We're all killing ourselves
'Til the blood runs out
'Til the blood runs out
I'm an American boy
I'm stupid as hell
You can bleed me out
'Til the blood runs out

[Outro]
Like, how does that happen?
I don't know, it was there for awhile
