Suburbs by Marsicans Lyrics

Everything's fine in the suburbs
They’ve neatened up the grass where it meets the curb
Someone's left the post with the neighbour
I know it's just the same old behaviour
But I can’t conceal that hole I feel

That familiar crunch of the gravel
Underneath my feet as I unravel
I'll go and find a new way of living
If everyone's a friend and I'm forgiven
How can I deny, just say goodbye and go?

It's all the same when I get home
In the suburbs, in the suburbs
No reason to be on my own
In the suburbs, in the suburbs
And the warmest of hugs will never be enough

Everything's fine in the city
Hide everything away if it's not pretty
Go and watch the world from the window
Shut your eyes at night and still see the glow
And it starts to heal that hole I feel
Unfamiliar faces who walk past
I'm struggling with sonder but it doesn’t last
Excited by a new way of living
But the people on the ground are not forgiving
How can I return? I’ll never learn, I know

It's all the same when I get home
In the suburbs, in the suburbs
No reason to be on my own
In the suburbs, in the suburbs
And the warmest of hugs will never be enough

When home is everywhere else
