Lyrics The Suburbs Are Killing Us - My Favorite

The Suburbs Are Killing Us

You did what you did
In defense of the diary
You did what you did
Because a pathetic mythology is better
Than no mythology at all
Back to the old house
The detectives came by to slum
But they found no mystery
In these crimes that we had done
But what could we paint when all we see is rain?
The suburbs are killing us
Asleep when we should be dancing
Leave your masterpiece unfinished
Asleep when we should be dancing all night long
You did what you did with a broken bicycle chain
You did what you did
And you swore that you would do it again
But Steven for some reason
I don’t think you can
The suburbs are killing us
Asleep when we should be dancing
Leave your masterpiece unfinished
Asleep when we should be dancing all night long
The suburbs are killing us
Asleep when we should be dancing
Leave your masterpiece unfinished
Asleep when we should be dancing
The suburbs are killing us.
But Michael what will we paint
When all we see are lights?
