Suburban War — The Arcade Fire

Let's go for a drive See the town tonight There's nothing to do but I'll unwind when I'm with you

This town's so strange They built it to change And while we're sleeping all the streets, they rearrange

And my old friends, we were so different then Before your war against the suburbs began Before it began

And now the music divides Us into tribes You grew your hair so I grew mine They said the past won't rest Until we jump the fence and leave it behind

And my old friends, I can remember when You cut your hair We never saw you again Now the cities we live in Could be distant stars And I search for you In every passing car

The nights are warm Yeah, the nights are warm I've been living in the shadows of your song Living in the shadows of your Song

In the suburbs I, I learned to drive People told me we would never survive So grab your mother's keys we leave tonight

You started a war That you can't win They keep erasing all the streets we grew up in

Now the music divides Us into tribes You choose your side I'll choose my side

All my old friends, they don't know me now Oh-oh All my old friends, are staring through me now Oh-oh All my old friends, they don't know me now All my old friends, they don't know me now

All my old friends, wait
