Song For the Suburbs - Ben Rector

This American dream is

not what it seems.

Maybe we’re still breathing

but we’re all asleep

Cause I wanna live

Until I die

Don’t let devil bury me alive

When my heart stops let me go home,

Don’t let the suburbs kill my heart and soul

My heart and soul

Pretty cars and pretty houses

Pretty people on parade

If this dream is what you’re after

Then dreamin' is where you’ll stay

Cause I wanna live,

Until I die

Don’t let devil bury me alive.

When my heart stops

Let me go home,

Don’t let the suburbs kill my heart and soul

My heart and soul

Are we just runnin' in the dark or livin'

Are we just runnin in the dark or livin'

Cause I wanna live,

Until I die

Don’t let the Devil bury me alive.

When my heart stops,

Let me go home

Don’t let the suburbs

Oh I wanna live

Until I die

Don’t let the Devil bury me alive

When my heart stops,

Let me go Home,

Don’t let the suburbs kill my heart and soul

Kill my heart and soul

My heart and soul
