The Suburbs (Live) by Arcade Fire

In the suburbs I
I (1)______________ to drive
And you told me we'd never survive
Grab your mother's keys, we are leaving

You always seemed so sure
That one day we'd be fighting
In a suburban war
Your part of (2)________ (3)______________ me
I saw you standing on the opposite shore
But by the time the first (4)__________ fell
We were already bored
We were already, already bored
Sometimes I can't believe it
I'm (5)____________ (6)________ the feeling
Sometimes I can't (7)______________ it
I'm moving past the (8)______________ again

The kids want to be so hard
But in my (9)____________ we're (10)__________ screaming
And (11)______________ through the yard
When all of the (12)__________ that they built
In the 70's finally fall
And all of the houses they built
In the 70's finally fall
Meant nothing at all?
It (13)__________ nothing at all, it meant nothing
Sometimes I can't (14)______________ it
I'm (15)____________ past the feeling
Sometimes I can't (16)______________ it
I'm moving past the feeling, (17)________ the night

So can you understand
Why I want a daughter (18)__________ I'm (19)__________ young?
I (20)________ to hold her hand
And show her some beauty before
All (21)________ damage is done
But if it's too much to ask, if it's too much to ask
Then send me a son
Under the overpass
In the parking lot we're still waiting
It's already past
So (22)________ your (23)________ from hot pavement
And into the grass
'Cause it's (24)______________ past
It's already, already past
Sometimes I can't believe it
I'm moving (25)________ the feeling
Sometimes I can't believe it
I'm moving past the feeling again
I'm moving (26)________ the feeling
I'm moving past the feeling

In my dreams we're still screaming
We're still screaming
We're still screaming
