Suburbs of Hell

They said if I'm good if I behave I can go to the suburbs of hell

Always the same repeated day out here in the suburbs of hell

In the suburbs of hell

Inner city centre,

No-one leaves this place

They just enter

Sometime I take a cab outta town

But there's nothing green

It's all burnt down

Long ago there were birds

But now skeletons hang

In other words they killed the voices that sang

Here I stand

Waiting for you

Ashes fall like raindrops on my skin

Patience made of steel it's wearing thin

They said if I'm good if I behave I can go to the suburbs of hell

Always the same repeated day out here in the suburbs of hell

I'm only human making mistakes

Pushing and pulling

Til something breaks

Wanna live that pick-pocket fence life everyday

In the suburbs of hell

What a perfect life for a noble sinner

No more takeaway TV dinner

Thought my choices were made as I ran

Outta time, with no game plan

But look at me now

Victimless crime

I do it for love

A paradoxical paradigm

Here I stand

Waiting for you

Ashes fall like raindrops on my skin

Patience made of steel it's wearing thin

They said if I'm good if I behave I can go to the suburbs of hell

Always the same repeated day out here in the suburbs of hell

I'm only human making mistakes

Pushing and pulling

Til something breaks

Wanna live that pick-pocket fence life everyday

It's where nightmares come alive

All these demons in my mind

They'll be treating me well

In the suburbs of hell

If you wanted to drop by

Sunbathe under crimson sky

With the devil himself

In the suburbs of hell

They said if I'm good if I behave I can go to the suburbs of hell

Always the same repeated day out here in the suburbs of hell

I'm only human making mistakes

Pushing and pulling

Til something breaks

Wanna live that pickpocket fence life everyday

In the suburbs of hell

With the devil himself

Suburbs of hell

With the devil himself

Suburbs of hell

With the devil himself

Suburbs of hell

Suburbs of hell
