Suburbia

So baby let me run away,
I'll make my own destiny
Cause this town will murder us,
Forget your husband, and 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

So as I sit down with a pen in my hand,
A heart was killed and 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,
Silently,
And hopelessly tonight
And baby you can tell the same,
I'm the boy who got away,
Cause this town will murder us
Forget your husband, and suburbia

When I was younger you said to me,
The 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,
Will borrow the money and all of the girls
In the night
Can I get her off my maze

The hull was cold and broken,
Like we're one step closer to God
I live for words I've 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,
Silently,
And hopelessly tonight

And baby you can tell the same,
I'm the boy who got away,
Cause this town will murder us
Forget your husband, and suburbia

So baby let me run away,
I'll make my own destiny
Cause this town is killing me,
Silently,
And hopelessly tonight
And baby you can tell the same,
I'm the boy who got away,
Cause this town will murder us
Forget your husband, and suburbia

(Run away, run away)
Forget your husband, and suburbia
(Run away, run away)
Forget your husband, and suburbia
