No, I don’t wanna be like you
Sitting quiet in your golden houses
Wash away my wasted youth
Forget about all of the times I’ve doubted

I keep pretending that it’s all alright
Living in this picture perfect life

I won’t die in suburbia
I won’t live in fear or follow the formula
Until I disappear
Smile and wave, make no mistakes
We’re all just on display here in suburbia
You won’t bury me here

Don’t let the white fence cage you in
The neighborhood will leave you lost & lonely
Wait for your story to begin
Like a hurricane, it creeps in slowly

I keep pretending that it’s all alright
Living in this picture perfect life

I won’t die in suburbia
I won’t live in fear or follow the formula
Until I disappear
Smile and wave, make no mistakes
We’re all just on display here in suburbia
You won’t bury me here

I won’t die in suburbia
I won’t live in fear or follow the formula
Until I disappear
Smile & wave, make no mistakes
We’re all just on display here in suburbia
You won’t bury me here
