Lyrics Short Stack – Suburbia

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 sit down with a pen in my hand,
A heartless kid became a broken man,
And I knew,
I gotta get outta here too

The city lights all call 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 night;
Cannot get you off my mind

The highway lights are broken,

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
