Suburban Muse

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Blue sky holding us down There's no why Only the sound of happy TV land Cue the canned applause Sidewalk, fall through the cracks to China Never get back I'm nothing in these blues and laceless Velcro shoes [Chorus] There used to be a reason why We wrote the words across the sky You and I will never die without a fight My suburban muse [Verse 2] Green grass towering high This white house, in it we'll die A thousand tiny lies take the place of you I've seen it too In all the things you do It lives inside of you A parasite or two [Chorus] There used to be a reason why We wrote the words across the sky You and I will never die without a fight My suburban muse [Bridge] I'm the king of ordinary things They're killing me from inside out I'll give it away [Chorus] There used to be a reason why We wrote the words across the sky You and I will never die without a fight My suburban muse [Chorus 2] Between the cars on dusty streets The cul-de-sac is where we meet I crunch the leaves beneath my feet and curse this town My suburban muse [Outro] Her senior year she joined junior statesman club And worked hard as a member of the Ramettes Each of these girls were deserving of the honor of Prom Queen
