Suburbia, 1986 Songtext
von Dance of Days

It seems we follow a smoke trail
Which fades away the more we need it
To know where to go
′Cause we're dizzy enough not to remember
What we′ve been doing
How does it feel now you're by yourself
And there's no one else to take care of you
No one brings you home when it′s late enough
For children to play so far away

The gig is over, and it′s so early
And I don't wanna go home
I know I′ll sleep alone
I know I'll miss someone to hold so much

The basement is closed
All the kids are gone
But I′m sure I'II stay here
′Cause nothing is worse than the silence
Which makes you hear your lower mind's voice


Have you ever felt like
All directions seem to lead us
To the same place?
How great if our lives
Shone forever just like that fuckin' perfect song

We used to sing along
Backstage kissing, hold me strong
The amps are screaming
Screaming for us

The gig is over, and it′s so early
And I don′t wanna go home
I know I'll sleep alone
I know I′ll miss someone to hold so much

The basement is closed
All the kids are gone
But I'm sure I′II stay here
'Cause nothing is worse than the silence
Which makes you hear your lower mind′s voice


Let's walk the whole night
Let's talk some shit
Oh, please stay and make me feel alive
Is it all the same with all punk kids?
Are we so afraid of our time passing by?
Just one more coffee, just one more kiss
Just one more song, it′s all that I need
To feel like the world isn′t bad enough
As long as you are there for me
