Hellions - Jesus Of Suburbia Lyrics






[Part 1: Jesus of Suburbia]

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 got away with

And there's nothing wrong with me
This is how I'm supposed to be
In the land of make believe
That don't believe in me

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

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

[Part 2: City Of The Damned]

At the center of the Earth in the parking lot
Of the 7-11 where I was taught
The motto was just a lie
It says "home is where your heart is," but what a shame
Cause everyone's heart doesn't beat the same
It's beating out of time

City of the dead
At the end of another lost highway
Signs misleading to nowhere
City of the damned
Lost children with dirty faces today
No one really seems to care

I read the graffiti in the bathroom stall
Like the holy scriptures of the 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

City of the dead
At the end of another lost highway
Signs misleading to nowhere
City of the damned
Lost children with dirty faces today
No one really seems to care

[Part 3: I 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

Everyone is so full of shit
Born and raised by hypocrites
Hearts recycled but never saved
From the cradle to the grave
We are the kids of war and peace
From Anaheim to the middle east
We are the stories and disciples of
The Jesus of Suburbia
Land of make believe
And that don't believe in me
Land of make believe
And I don't believe
And I don't care!
I don't care!
I don't care!
I don't care!
I don't care!

[Part 4: Dearly Beloved]

Dearly beloved, are you listening?
I can't remember a word that you were saying
Are we demented or am I 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 best excuse

[Part 5: Tales Of Another Broken Home]

To live and not to breathe
Is to die in tragedy
To run, to run away
To find what you believe
And I leave behind
This hurricane of fucking lies

I lost my faith to this
This town that don't exist
So I run, I run away
To the light of masochist
And I leave behind
This hurricane of fucking lies
And I walked this line
A million and one fucking times
But not this time

I don't feel any shame, I won't apologize
When there ain't nowhere you can go
Running away from pain when you've been victimized
Tales from another broken...home

You're leaving...
You're leaving...
You're leaving...
Ah you're leaving home...

    That bassline and choirs on Dearly Beloved. Oh my.

  5. D.... a....

    So fucken sweet

  6. C.... B....

    sorry to say this.. but the mix is weak. so compressed from the start. pulled the cover off really well though. true to their style

    C.... B....

    Have to agree with you there. I'm not digging the mix, cover is dope though

    C.... B....

    The drums sit nicely in the mix

  7. N.... M....

    8:25 ......amazing

  8. h.... ....

    DOPE cover bruh impressed of how good it turned out

  9. A.... D....

    OPERA OBLIVIA was the best album last year... despite how it went unnoticed

  10. D.... ....

    I Remember When You Me At Six covered Are We The Waiting ... Hearing Josh saying "The Jesus Of Suburbia is a lie".

  11. C.... W....

    only thing I don't like is the group vocals

  12. A.... ....

    so sick haven't listened to this in too long, thanks for the trip back to my child/early teenage hood <3

  13. C.... J....

    My freakin' ears!
    I would rather not listen to this ever again.

    C.... J....

    Easy. Don't then.

    C.... J....

    Cowol Jar Woff well atleast you'll always have the original. I dig the fuck out of this though. I'm sure other people do too. it's a great, well done cover. old green days hard to cover

    C.... J....

    Bad for you I guess

    C.... J....

    They did it so much justice though? Not pointlessly heavy, vocals work well with the late 80's tp early 2000 punk sound. This is how you cover a song.

  14. o.... ....

    fuck yeah this is sick!

  15. J.... A....

    Thank God they still releasing songs.

    J.... A....

    Jorge Austerlitz album coming out in a few months.

  16. U.... ....

    So glad that they Re-Mixed this, their old version sounded like trash.

  17. g.... W....

    this is too fucking cool great cover

  18. P.... ....

    No offense to them but not expecting it to be this good.

  19. J.... B....

    Holy shit yes!

  20. D.... R....

    Possibly one of the hardest songs to cover but they pulled it off seamlessly

    D.... R....

    I feel like The Trooper would be much harder to cover honestly..
    Or Just The Goods - The Stranger
    But i do know what you mean haha

    D.... R....

    Why is Jesus of suburbia hard to cover as a professional musician?

  21. O.... M....

    THIS IS AWESOME.

  22. O.... ....

    I really like the vocals on this one. Great song choice for a cover.

  23. M.... M....

    My favorite Green Day song, super dope pick for Hellions, wish there were more dirty vocals though.

    M.... M....

    Mizter Meschie yeah agreed. Matt doing more screams would of been nice but oh well, Dre still kills it.

    M.... M....

    Aye only reason I clicked on it was for that

  24. B.... S....

    The group vocals sound great!

  25. 9.... ....

    Very good song choice. It fits the band perfectly.

    9.... ....

    Papa Bless my friend.

  26. A.... W....

    Great song choice!

  27. R.... m....

    Green Day is still better and I like this band but I love Green Day way more

  28. O.... G....

    Sounds amazing 🔥
