Suburban Malaise Lyrics

Why does it feel like I'm running

When nothing around's ever changing?

And why do I catch myself talking

When I know I've got nothing to say?

Nothing to say

I used to have dreams of adventure

The road looked so wide back in high-school

But I was frightened by my own desire

And I lost my way

I lost my way

It's a long way down, but you won't feel the change

Suburban malaise

My neighbour was browsing on e-bay

Found authentic tickets for Woodstock

And a pristine Hendrix album unopened

He put them in a frame

And I was amazed

It's a long way down, but you won't feel the change

Suburban malaise

Lay me down, lay me down

Like a baby in a cradle

Lullaby, till I close my eyes in peace

I keep all my dreams very private

I don't want my thoughts complicated

The footsteps behind getting closer

Suburban malaise

Suburban malaise

It's a long way down, but you won't feel the change

Suburban malaise
