suburban war

Arcade Fire

Let?s go for a drive, and see the town tonight
There?s nothing to do, but I don?t mind when I?m with you

This town?s so strange, they built it to change
And while we?re sleeping all the streets get rearranged

And my old friends, they were so different then
Before your war, against the suburbs began
Before it began

You know the music divides, us into tribes
You grew your hair, so I grew mine
You said the past won?t rest, until we jump the fence
And leave it behind

And my old friends, I can?t remember when
You cut your hair, and I never saw you again
Now the cities we live in, could be distant stars
But I search for you, in every passing car

The nights are warm
Yeah, the nights are warm
I?ve been living in the shadows of your song
Living in the shadows of your, song

In the suburbs I, I learned to drive
And you told me we would never survive
So grab your mother?s keys we leave tonight

But you started a war, that you can?t win
They keep you racing on the streets we grew up in
Now the music divides, us into tribes
You choose your side, I?ll choose my side

All my old friends, they don?t know me now
All my old friends, are staring through me now
All my old friends, they don?t know me now
All my old friends, they don?t know me now

All my old friends, wait
