Lyrics
I heard you have a pretty villa down south The paint never peels and the grass doesn't dry out Though it hasn't rained in months Not even once At least it's something to worry about Cause in the outskirts, comfort comes first It's as perfect as it's true When there's an outburst, it could be worse Cause it could happen to you But have you ever seen a view like this From a back porch? But you would never leave Cause what if it's not everything you want? If you couldn't run from everything you've known And it didn't make you feel like your own I heard you are a part-time patriot Lost your drive so you drive to compensate for it Never get at the extend of the streets and dead ends And you've memorized all of the names Cause in the outskirts, comfort comes first It's as perfect as it's true When there's an outburst, it could be worse Cause it could happen to you But have you ever seen a view like this From a back porch? But you would never leave Cause what if it's not everything you want? If you couldn't run from everything you've known And it didn't make you feel like you own Why can't you leave? I remember fantasies you tell You're breathing on a glass of a hotel Looking at a city that's so big it can't be real So you stay safe And wash the bitter taste from your mouth You look up at the burnt orange sky and wonder why You ever dreamt of getting out
