GODLESS SUBURBIA / GODDESS SUBURBIAHere
The churches are beaten and bruised,
Crumbling and abused.
Here
The toxic teens spray-paint
Pictures of a demonic saint.
Welcome to the godless suburbia
We call home.
Here
The houses are boxes on the streets
Or stones at our feet.
Here
The shops are glaring neon lights,
Gun shots and fights.
This is the godless suburbia
We call home.
Here
The streets are littered with grunge and death,
The world holding it's breath
As they wait to see what will become
Of the godless suburbia
We call home.
There
The buildings are made of glass and pride
Like there's nothing to hide
There
The streets are fat and full of courage
Or malnourished.
Welcome to the goddess suburbia
We could never call home.
There
The shops are full of life and love,
Unlike the city they rise above.
There
The cracked ground and sky are grey
Throughout the endless day
This is the goddess suburbia
We could never call home.
The halls are made of stone but no pride.
They have everything to hide
As the world holds it's breath
Because they know what will come
Of the goddess suburbia
We could never call home
