Like a spider to a fly she sang, I was tangled in her web. I lived to see her smile until I saw the fangs. Was I lost in a mirage or was it in me?
American beauty - just an illusion of a girl, American beauty - spreading her image to the world. I couldn′t have tried to fight her, to deny her, I have died to lie beside her. Wrong or right, she was mine - American beauty.
Every whisper drew me closer still, Every breath we seemed to share. I couldn′t turn away, she moved in for the kill. Did I give into the bait or lead it to me?
American beauty - just an illusion of a girl, American beauty - spreading her image to the world. I couldn′t have tried to fight her, to deny her, I have died to lie beside her. Wrong or right, she was mine - American beauty.
No more the same, is she to blame Or am I responsible because I came? Moth to a flame, I surrendered to her pull. Wrong or right, she was mine for a night.
American beauty - just an illusion of a girl, American beauty - spreading her image to the world. American beauty - still I can feel her in my veins, American beauty - part of me now forever stained. I couldn′t have tried to fight her, to deny her, I have died to lie beside her. Wrong or right, she was mine - American beauty

I think I fell in love again. Maybe I just took too much cough medicine. I′m the best worst thing that hasn′t happened to you yet. The best worst thing. You take the full, full truth, then you pour some out. You take the full, full truth, then you pour some out. And you can kill me, kill me or let God sort ‘em out. And you can kill me, kill me or.

I wish I dreamt in the shape of your mouth. But it′s your thread count I really care about. Stay up ′til the lights go out. Stay up, Stay up. You take the full, full truth, then you pour some out. You take the full, full truth, then you pour some out. And as we′re drifting off to sleep. All those dirty thoughts of me. They were never yours to keep.
Altered boys, altered boys. We’re the things that love destroyed. (I′m an American, I′m an American). You, me, us, them. We’re just resurrection men. (I′m an American, I′m an American). Us, we were only there, to make you live again. (I′m an American, I′m an American). Us, we were pity sex, nothing more and nothing less.
She′s an American beauty. I′m an American psycho. She′s an American beauty. I′m an American. I′m an American. American Psycho. I′m an American. I′m an American. I′m, I′m, I′m an American psycho.
