Jesus Of Suburbia

On a steady diet of

Soda pop and Ritalin

No one ever died for my sins in hell (Verse 2)

As far as I can tell

At least the ones I've gotten away with

And there's nothing wrong with me

This is how I'm supposed to be (Chorus)

In a land of make believe

That don't believe in me

Get my television fix

Sitting on my crucifix (Verse 3)

The living room in my private womb

While the moms and brads are away

To fall in love and fall in debt

To alcohol and cigarettes (Verse 4)

And Mary Jane to keep me insane

And doing someone else's cocaine

(Chorus)

Lyrics:

At the center of the earth

In the parking lot (Verse 1)

Of the 7-11 were I was taught

The motto was just a lie

It says home is were your heart is

But what a shame (Verse 2 w/riff)

Cause everyone's heart doesn't beat the same

We're beating out of time

City of the dead

At the end of another lost highway

Sign misleading to nowhere (Chorus)

City of the damned

Lost children with there dirty faces today

No one really seems to care

I read the graffiti

In the bathroom stall (Verse 3)

Like the holy scriptures of a shopping mall

And so it seemed to confess

It didn't say much

But it only confirmed that (Verse 4 w/riff)

The center of the earth is the end of the world

And I could really care less

(Chorus)

I don't care if you don't

I don't care if you don't (Intro) x4

I don't care if you don't care

I don't care! (Riff 1)

Everyone is so full of shit

Burn and raised by hipocrits

Hearts recycled but never saved
