Everything's fine in the suburbs They've neatened up the grass where it meets the curb Someone's left the post with the neighbour I know it's just the same old behaviour But I can't conceal that hole I feel That familiar crunch of the gravel Underneath my feet as I unravel I'll go and find a new way of living If everyone's a friend and I'm forgiven How can I deny, just say goodbye and go? It's all the same when I get home In the suburbs, in the suburbs No reason to be on my own In the suburbs, in the suburbs And the warmest of hugs will never be enough Everything's fine in the city Hide everything away if it's not pretty Go and watch the world from the window Shut your eyes at night and still see the glow And it starts to heal that hole I feel Unfamiliar faces who walk past I'm struggling with sonder but it doesn't last Excited by a new way of living But the people on the ground are not forgiving How can I return? I'll never learn, I know It's all the same when I get home In the suburbs, in the suburbs No reason to be on my own In the suburbs, in the suburbs And the warmest of hugs will never be enough Home is everywhere else When home is everywhere else When home is everywhere else When home is everywhere else When home is everywhere else When home is everywhere else It's all the same when I get home In the suburbs, in the suburbs No reason to be on my own In the suburbs, in the suburbs In the suburbs, in the suburbs
