White Lies (Stranded In Suburbia)

Broken windows of a school bus

Heavy rocks in angry fists

And here I am with an inebriated glow

While the thrill of smashing glass persists

Midnight passed an hour ago

We're young; we're the only ones alive

Filling dark silence through the neighbourhood

Gripping severed bottles like they were pocket knives

I am so in love

Barefoot in suburbia

But when winter comes

This grass will shrivel up and die

We spend the weekend in his basement

Order in and shut the door

His mother's upstairs staring at the TV screen

Just like she did the night before

He makes his way toward my lips

I'm pressed against a paper sky

His father's upstairs ssinging to the radio

And we are filled with black smoke and white lies

I am so in love

Standing on your carpet stains

But when curfew comes

I'll only have myself to blame

Now there's blood where I was standing

That's what happens when you freeze time

You end up stranded in suburbia

Cutting up powder into pretty lines

I am so in love

Driving in a thunderstorm

Left the note inside

"Thank you...love.. goodbye"

I am so in love

I am so in love

I am so in love

Now let's get the hell out of this place

Before I die
