Jesus of suburbia

[00:02.01] I'm the son of rage and love

[00:04.02] The Jesus of Suburbia

[00:06.78] The bible of "none of the above"

[00:09.53] On a steady diet of

[00:12.29] Soda pop and Ritalin

[00:17.05] No one ever died for my sins in hell

[00:20.55] As far as I can tell

[00:23.31] At least the ones I got away with

[00:26.31] And there's nothing wrong with me

[00:29.32] This is how I'm supposed to be

[00:32.33] In a land of make-believe

[00:35.83] That don't believe in me

[00:38.09] Get my television fix

[00:47.36] Sitting on my crucifix

[00:50.36] The living room or my private womb

[00:53.12] While the moms and Brads are away

[00:55.62] To fall in love and fall in debt

[01:00.88] To alcohol and cigarettes and Mary Jane

[01:04.64] To keep me insane

[01:06.39] Doing someone else's cocaine

[01:08.90] And there's nothing wrong with me

[01:12.66] This is how I'm supposed to be

[01:16.18] In a land of make-believe

[01:19.18] That don't believe in me

[01:22.19] At the center of the earth, in the parking lot

[01:59.75] Of the 7-11 where I was taught

[02:03.26] The motto was just a lie

[02:08.77] It says, "Home is where your heart is, " but what a shame

[02:12.52] 'Cause everyone's heart doesn't beat the same

[02:15.78] It's beating out of time

[02:20.29] City of the dead (hey, hey)

[02:25.80] At the end of another lost highway (hey, hey)

[02:29.32] Signs misleading to nowhere

[02:33.32] City of the damned (hey, hey)

[02:38.58] Lost children with dirty faces today (hey, hey)

[02:41.59] No one really seems to care

[02:45.60] I read the graffiti in the bathroom stall

[02:50.86] Like the holy scriptures of the shopping mall

[02:54.12] And so it seemed to confess

[02:59.38] It didn't say much, but it only confirmed

[03:03.39] That the center of the earth is the end of the world

[03:06.90] And I could really care less

[03:11.65] City of the dead (hey, hey)

[03:16.42] At the end of another lost highway (hey, hey)

[03:19.67] Signs misleading to nowhere

[03:24.94] City of the damned (hey, hey)

[03:28.94] Lost children with dirty faces today (hey, hey)

[03:32.45] No one really seems to care (hey)

[03:37.21] I don't care if you don't

[03:51.74] I don't care if you don't

[03:54.00] I don't care if you don't care

[03:57.76] I don't care if you don't

[03:59.76] I don't care if you don't

[04:02.01] I don't care if you don't care

[04:06.77] I don't care if you don't

[04:09.03] I don't care if you don't

[04:10.28] I don't care if you don't care

[04:14.04] I don't care if you don't

[04:16.29] I don't care if you don't

[04:18.29] I don't care if you don't care

[04:21.05] I don't care

[04:25.31] Everyone's so full of shit

[04:37.08] Born and raised by hypocrites

[04:39.34] Hearts recycled, but never saved

[04:42.09] From the cradles to the grave

[04:44.59] We are the kids of war and peace

[04:47.60] From Anaheim to the Middle East

[04:50.11] We are the stories and disciples of

[04:52.62] The Jesus of Suburbia

[04:55.37] Land of make-believe

[04:58.13] And it don't believe in me

[05:01.13] Land of make-believe (said, now it's, it's another lie)

[05:05.39] And I don't believe

[05:06.39] And I don't care (whoo, whoo, whoo)

[05:07.90] I don't care (whoo, whoo, whoo)

[05:10.40] I don't care (whoo, whoo, whoo)

[05:12.66] I don't care (whoo, whoo, whoo)

[05:15.41] I don't care

[05:18.67] Dearly beloved, are you listening?

[05:29.69] I can't remember a word that you were saying

[05:35.45] Are we demented, or am I disturbed?

[05:41.46] The space that's in between insane and insecure

[05:46.47] Ooh

[05:48.98] Ooh

[05:56.75] oh therapy, can you please fill the void?

[06:02.76] (Ooh) am I retarded, or am I just overjoyed?

[06:07.77] (Ooh) nobody's perfect, and I stand accused

[06:13.78] (Ooh) for lack of a better word, and that's my best excuse

[06:20.04] Ooh

[06:22.30] Ooh

[06:25.31] To live and not to breathe

[06:43.84] Is to die in tragedy

[06:49.10] To run, to run away

[06:53.60] To find what you believe

[06:58.62] And I leave behind

[07:03.88] This hurricane of fucking lies

[07:07.88] I lost my faith to this

[07:13.15] This town that don't exist

[07:18.16] So I run, I run away

[07:23.68] To the light of masochists

[07:27.69] And I leave behind

[07:33.45] This hurricane of fucking lies

[07:38.21] And I've walked this line

[07:42.72] A million and one fucking times

[07:47.98] But not this time

[07:50.49] I don't feel any shame, I won't apologize

[08:29.09] When there ain't nowhere you can go

[08:34.10] Runnin' away from pain when you've been victimized

[08:40.36] Tales from another broken home

[08:48.88] You're leavin'

[08:51.64] You're leavin'

[08:53.65] You're leavin'

[08:55.90] Are you leavin' home?
