Lyrics

((Verse 1)

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

Soda pop 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

(Chorus)

And there's nothing wrong with me

This is how I'm supposed to be

In a land of make believe

That don't believe in me

(Verse 2)

Get my television fix

Sitting on my crucifix

The living room in my private womb

While the moms and brads 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

(Chorus)

And there's nothing wrong with me

This is how I'm supposed to be

In a land of make believe

That don't believe in me

Lyrics

(Verse 1)

At the center of the earth

In the parking lot

Of the 7-11 were I was taught

The motto was just a lie

It says home is were your heart is

But what a shame

Cause everyone's heart doesn't beat the same

We're beating out of time

(Chorus)

City of the dead

At the end of another lost highway

Sign misleading to nowhere

City of the ***ed

Lost children with dirty faces today

No one really seems to care

(Verse 2)

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 center of the earth is the end of the world

And I could really care less

(Chorus)

City of the dead

At the end of another lost highway

Sign misleading to nowhere

City of the ***ed

Lost children with dirty faces today

No one really seems to care

Lyrics:

(Intro part 2)

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

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

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

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

(Verse)

I don't care!

(Verse Part 2)

Everyone is so full of ***

Burn and raised by hipocrits

Hearts recycled but never saved

From the cradle to the grave

We are the kids of war and peace

From Anaheim to the Middle Mast

We are the stories and disciples

Of the Jesus of suburbia

(Chorus)

Land of make believe

And it don't believe in me

Land of make believe

And I don't believe

(Outro)

And I don't care!

I don't care!

I don't care!

I don't care!

I don't care!

Lyrics

(Intro)

Dearly beloved are you listening?

I can't remember a word that you were saying

(Verse)

Are we demented or are we 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 beat excuse
