Suburban War |
Let’s go for a drive and see the town tonight |
There’s nothing to do but I don’t mind when I’m with you |
This town’s so strange they built it to change |
And while we sleep we know the streets get rearranged |
With my old friends it was so different then |
Before your war against the suburbs began |
Before it began |
Now the music divides us into tribes |
You grew your hair so I grew mine |
You said the past won’t rest |
Until we jump the fence and leave it behind |
With my old friends, I can remember when |
You cut your hair, I never saw you again |
Now the cities we live in could be distant stars |
And I search for you in every passing car |
The night’s so long |
Yeah the night’s so long |
I’ve been living in the shadows of your song |
Been living in the shadows of your song |
In the suburbs I, I learned to drive |
And you told me we would never survive |
So grab your mother’s keys we leave tonight |
But you started a war that we can’t win |
They keep erasing all the streets we grew up in |
Now the music divides us into tribes |
You choose your side, I’ll choose my side |
All my old friends they don’t know me now |
All my old friends are staring through me now |
All my old friends they don’t know me now |
All my old friends they don’t know me now |
They don’t know me now |
All my old friends, wait |
