| Song lyrics |
I. 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
Sodapop and Ritalin
No one ever died for my sins in hell
As far as I can tell
At least the ones I've gotten away with
But there's nothing wrong with me
This is how I'm supposed to be
In the land of make believe
That don't believe in me
Get my television fix
Sitting on my crucifix
The living room or my private womb
While the mom's & brad's are away
To fall in love and fall in debt
To alcohol and cigarettes and Mary Jane
To keep me insane and doing someone else's cocaine
But there's nothing wrong with me
This is how I'm supposed to be
In the land of make believe
That don't believe in me
II. City of the damned
At the centre 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
Signs misleading to nowhere
City of the damned
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 a shopping mall
And so it seemed to confess
It didn't say much, but it only confirmed that
The centre 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
Signs misleading to nowhere
City of the damned
Lost children with dirty faces today
No one really seems to care
III. 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 shit!
Born and raised by hypocrites
Hearts recycled but never saved
From the cradle straight 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 it don't believe in me
Land of make believe
And it don't believe in me
And I don't care! (x5)
IV. Dearly Beloved
Dearly beloved, are you listening?
I can't remember all words that you were saying
Are we demented?
Or am I disturbed?
The space that's in-between insane and insecure
Oh therapy, can you please fill the void?
Am I retarded or am I just overjoyed?
Nobody's perfect and I stand accused
For lack of a better word and that's my best excuse
V. Tales of another broken home
To live and not to breathe
Is to die in tragedy
To run, to run away to find what to believe
And I leave behind this hurricane of fucking lies
I lost my faith to this, this town that don't exist
So I run, I run away
To the light of masochists
And I leave behind this hurricane of fucking lies
And I walked this line a million and one fucking 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
Yeah I'm leaving! (x3)
I am leaving home!

Is it just me or is this whole album a protest to Bush and how America is being run, and how stupid the war in iraq is.
Besides that this album is great had it 2 days listened to it about 10 times...lol.

jesus of suburbia is so named because he's a typical suburban kid (there's nothing wrong with me, this is how i'm supposed to be). he leaves home cos of how F**ked up everything around him, and ends up living on the streets, where he creates the alter-ego of St Jimmy, a violent, drug dealing, malevolant criminal
great song and great album! | 14-11-2004 00:17 Cheapet123 |  259 posts
