Texty
Hmmm
I don't like it in the suburbs
Cuz everything's too far away
Too much free time for my mind to wander
Strolling through the grey
Yeah I'm sitting on the hardwood floor
Of my childhood kitchen
Counting up things I should've done before
Staring at undone dishes
I've never been too good
With time to myself
Need some company
Some noise to to drown it out
Gotta stop running from my head
Moment to moment
Gotta start listening instead
To the good things in motion
I wanna be here
I wanna be happy
I wanna be there
Are they okay without me?
I gotta stop running from my head
And learn to be
Okay in the suburbs
Hmmm
I'm going crazy in the suburbs
Cuz everything's slowed down
And this constant heat of summer
Burns me every time I leave the house
Yeah I'm sitting in the driver's seat
Of my high school car
Tryna' go where I wanna be
But I know I won't get far
Yeah I've never been too good
With time to myself
Need some company
Some noise to to drown it out
Gotta stop running from my head
Moment to moment
Gotta start listening instead
To the good things in motion
I wanna be here
I wanna be happy
I wanna be there
Are they okay without me?
I gotta stop running from my head
And learn to be
Okay in the suburbs
Alone in the suburbs
And every house, it looks the same
Grass all trimmed, no trace of stains
I never felt like I fit in this place
Gotta stop running from my head
Gotta start listening instead
I wanna be here
I wanna be happy
I wanna be there
Are they okay without me
Gotta stop running from my head and learn to be
Gotta stop running from my head
Moment to moment
Gotta start listening instead
To the good things in motion
I wanna be here
I wanna be happy
I wanna be there
Are they okay without me
I gotta stop running from my head
And learn to be
Okay in the suburbs
I'm okay in the suburbs (alone in the suburbs)
I'm okay in the suburbs, I
I don't like it in the suburbs
Cuz everything's too far away
Too much free time for my mind to wander
Strolling through the grey
