Suburban Breakdown / Would You?

Rubbing of stains, keeps the rats away, anxiety stays Darkened houses in a perfect row, stuck on repeat Desperately hunting another high, always end up low Force a reaction by public disgrace The do and the don'ts and the promises, it's all in your head A thousand zombies got me by the throat While mum is busy writing suicide notes Strangers forever, until death do us part There's no escape from suburban breakdown Learn to stay down, stand in line again, give em what they want All these kids acting dead on abandoned streets, give em what they need Behind brick walls we're all falling apart once again Learn to stay down, stand in line again Here comes another scar in the promised land A thousand zombies got me by the throat While mum is busy writing suicide notes Strangers forever, until death do us part There's no escape from suburban breakdown Suburban Breakdown Rubbing off stains keeps the rats away The anxiety stays Another day on repeat A thousand zombies got me by the throat While mum is busy writing suicide notes Strangers forever, until death do us part There's no escape from suburban breakdown A thousand zombies got me by the throat While mum is busy writing suicide notes Strangers forever, until death do us part There's no escape from suburban breakdown Suburban Breakdown Suburban Breakdown

You'll never know, you will never see These walls were not built for someone like me I never felt as dead as in your safety zone She said You're not my spokesman you will never be Every word is such a waste to me You're trying to build a wall but this brick won't fit Cannot breathe, gated community She said Does it feel like you're being fooled again? Take a look at yourself, tell me what you see She said Would you follow every step? Would you follow? Would you give yourself away? Until you're nothing We all need someone to blame Would you follow? Would you give it all away, going nowhere? Ain't got no soul, at least none I can see Keep on repeating someone else's dream I never asked to be the one to blame Only need somewhere I can be alone She said Would you follow every step? Would you follow? Would you give yourself away? Until you're nothing We all need someone to blame Would you follow? Would you give it all away, going nowhere? Does it feel like you're being fooled again? Take a look at yourself, tell me what you see She said Does it feel like you're being fooled again? Take a look at yourself, tell me what you see She said Would you follow every step? Would you follow? Would you give yourself away? Until you're nothing We all need someone to blame Would you follow? Would you give it all away, going nowhere? Would you follow every step? Would you follow every step? Would you follow? Would you give yourself away? Until you're nothing We all need someone to blame Would you follow? Would you give it all away?
