Suburbia Songtext
von Short Stack

When I was younger, you said to me
"Love songs are for lovers and not for you"
So go and write the world the blues
And as I sat down with a pen in my hand
A heartless kid became a broken man and I knew
I gotta get out of here too

The city lights are calling me and I am not afraid
The streets are paved with heroes and they′re calling out my name

So baby, let me run away
I'll make my own destiny
′Cause this town is killing me
Hopelessly and silently tonight
And baby, you can tell the strange
I'm the boy who got away
'Cause this town will murder us
Forget your boyfriend
Fuck suburbia


When I was younger, you said to me
"A white picket fence and a well-groomed man is right"
Now go and find yourself a wife
And in all of the cities in all of the world
With all of the money and all of the girls in the light
Can I get you off my mind?

The highway lights are broken
Like we′re one step closer to God
Eloof words are spoken and I hate them just because

So baby, let me run away
I′ll make my own destiny
'Cause this town is killing me
Hopelessly and silently tonight
And baby, you can tell the strange
I′m the boy who got away
'Cause this town will murder us
Forget your boyfriend
Fuck suburbia


So baby, let me run away
I′ll make my own destiny
'Cause this town is killing me
Hopelessly and silently tonight
And baby, you can tell the strange
I′m the boy who got away
'Cause this town will murder us
Forget your boyfriend
Fuck suburbia

Fuck suburbia
Fuck suburbia
