My Favorite - The Suburbs Are Killing Us Lyrics

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?"
