Facade

Same old houses Run down streets And everyone's the same Except those who make it out They're all looking for their white picket dream But nothing ever turns out like the movies No nothing does No it never does Set out on my path They told me from the start My only job in life Is weighing down my heart These suburbs have a plan for me To settle down, have kids, and forget all my dreams Well they're not really happy It's all a facade My chest may be pounding but I'm not alive They say you can't kick up the roots But I've been dragging my feet for the past four years And they say I'm missing out I can't take it any longer And it's time to dispel these rumors These suburbs have a plan for me To settle down, have kids, and forget all my dreams Well they're not really happy It's all a facade My chest may be pounding but I'm not alive How come small town tragedies seem to be the only thing That bring us all together I swear that I'll break on the day That I have to face my parents in the mirror How come small town tragedies seem to be the only thing That bring us all together Yeah and I'll break on the day that I have to face my Parents in the mirror My heart may be beating but I'm not alive How come small town tragedies seem to be the only thing That bring us all together
