Nicholas Hunt - The Suburbs Are A Lie
The suburbs are a lie
and the city's way
too crowded
And we're all
just getting by
all alone
but feel surrounded
Have you ever felt
so empty
like the crowd could
never hear you
Have you ever felt
so silent
like your screams were
merely see through
The suburbs are a lie
I told you
that I hate that place
And the thought of going back
is always messing
with my brain
I know that you see it too
even if you don't in me
I don't want to go back
to the only place
that ever set me free
The suburbs are a lie
and the city's way
too crowded
And we're all
just getting by
all alone
but feel surrounded
Have you ever felt
so empty
like the crowd could
never hear you
Have you ever felt
so silent
like your screams were
merely see through
You always stand
in shallow water
afraid to dive
into the depths
I know that sometimes
I can be a handful
but just take a breath
I can help you
take the step
help you take
a leap of faith
I can help you
kill your demons
if you let me
lead the way
The suburbs are a lie
and the city's way
too crowded
And we're all
just getting by
all alone
but feel surrounded
Have you ever felt
so empty
like the crowd could
never hear you
Have you ever felt
so silent
like your screams were
merely see through
and the city's way

And we're all
