Suburbia

[Verse 1]
Hating what i used to love i contemplate the noose above
While everybody keeps saying i should loosen up
Fish outta water and somebody let the cat out
Chewed up and spat out
The jeans i wear are dated achievements overrated
Used to run the scene now my dreams are old and faded
Maybe i could make it if i gave it a shot
But it's such a long way to the top from

[Chorus}
Suburbia where dreams have come to die
Suburbia no reason left to try

[Verse 2]
Feels so long ago when i used to be showman
I let it go cause i was everybody’s hoe then
But now the wife is i’m in financial crisis
But how’s the irony? ‘priceless’
No longer am i famous except amongst the neighbours
And everyone of them’s a blatant ignoramus
This aint a living but somehow i’ve survived,
Hit the highway to hell and arrived in

[Chorus]
Suburbia where dreams have come to die
Suburbia where people don’t ask why

[Bridge]
Had my head up my ass so long
Couldn't see things going so wrong
Pain of hindsight taints the highlights
That's why i like that other kind of high life
And i gave up chasing the big score
Cause it wasn't worth taking the shit for
I prefer to be the jerk you never heard of in suburbia

[Verse 3]
D-grade celebrity is all that i will ever be
So i don’t give a fuck if nobody remembers me
I used to hang when opportunity rang
But i missed it when the fat lady sang
Looking down a loaded gun bound to die a no one
What i can make in a week i used to drop it on a coke run
Instead of waiting to see take it from me that
Hell aint a bad place to be after

[Chorus]
Suburbia where dreams have come to die
Suburbia where ego gets denied
