jesus of suburbia - green day lyrics
jesus of suburbia
i’m the son of rage and love
the jesus of suburbia
from the bible of none of the above
on a steady diet of
soda pop and ritalin
no one ever died for my sins in h-ll
as far as i can tell
at least the ones i got away with
and there’s nothing wrong with me
this is how i’m supposed to be
in a land of make believe
that don’t believe in me
get my television fixed
sitting on my crucifix
the living room or my private womb
while the moms and dads are away
to fall in love and fall in debt
to alcohol and cigarettes
and mary jane
to keep me insane,
doing someone else’s cocaine
and there’s nothing wrong with me
this is how i’m supposed to be
in a land of make believe
that don’t believe in me
[part 2: city of the d-mned]
at the center of the earth
in the parking lot
of the 7-11 where i was taught
the motto was just a lie
it says home is where your heart is
but what a shame
cause everyone’s heart
doesn’t beat the same
it’s beating out of time
city of the dead
at the end of another lost highway
signposts leading to nowhere
city of the d-mned
lost children with dirty faces today
no one really seems to care
i read the graffiti
in the bathroom stall
like the holy scriptures of the shopping mall
and so it seemed to confess
it didn’t say much
but it only confirmed that
the center of the earth
is the end of the world
and i could really care less
city of the dead
at the end of another lost highway
signposts leading to nowhere
city of the d-mned
lost children with dirty faces today
no one really seems to care
[part 3: i don’t care]
i don’t care if you don’t
i don’t care if you don’t
i don’t care if you don’t care
[x4]
i don’t care
everyone is so full of sh-t
born and raised by hypocrites
hearts recycled but never saved
from the cradles to the grave
we are the kids of war and peace
from anaheim to the middle east
we are the stories and disciples
of the jesus of suburbia
land of make believe
and that don’t believe in me
land of make believe
and i don’t believe
and i don’t care!
i don’t care! [x4]
[part 4: dearly beloved]
dearly beloved are you listening?
i can’t remember a word that you were saying
are we demented or am i disturbed?
the sp-ce that’s in between insane and insecure
oh, therapy, can you please fill the void?
am i r-t-rded or am i just overjoyed?
n-body’s perfect and i stand accused
for lack of a better word, and that’s my best excuse
[part 5: tales of another broken home]
to live and not to breathe
is to die in tragedy
to run, to run away
to find what you believe
and i leave behind
this hurricane of f-cking lies
i lost my faith to this
this town that don’t exist
so i run, i run away
to the lights of m-s-ch-st
and i leave behind
this hurricane of f-cking lies
and i walked this line
a million and one f-cking times
but not this time
i don’t feel any shame, i won’t apologize
when there ain’t nowhere you can go
running away from pain when you’ve been victimized
tales from another broken home
you’re leaving…
you’re leaving…
you’re leaving…
ah you’re leaving home…
