lyrics

Come join the fiends these nights all dressed to kill ready for their fill
The way you smell I can tell you ain't never left your property, how nice that must have been
Always the smart choice to stay within the white picket fences outlined on the grass where the jet white kids prepare for their hollow dances every fucking night
It's a super happy funtime for all of us who never cared to love
It's a super happy funtime and you're the one it all revolves around
This masquerade's your one chance out here
you might loose track of all the atrocities, we love our pretense here
It might not show but the terror hides behind the mask we wear
What do you know about our fucked up fantasies and fucked up past with just one glance?
Well, nothing as it stands, baby.
You see what you want to believe and they're not going to pop that balloon just now.
What will you do?
Everything goes in sick suburban homes.
What will you do, when your lovely neighbors come for you?
You'll be wishing for slow poison death, razors and an escape from certain mutilation.
Don't look to me for answers, I can't help what I've become, I'm just as fucked up as everyone.
The one thing nobody ever tells you, the one thing you'll have to find out for yourself,
This world’s a fucking terrifying place
It’s way worse than they tell you.
It's a super happy funtime for all of us who never cared to love
It's a super happy funtime and you're the one it all revolves around
This masquerade's your one chance out here
you might loose track of all the atrocities buried beneath the astro turf.
The horror, the monsters, the grief, the carved up flesh is everyone you know. it's everyone you'll ever meet.
So join this masquerade.
Everything goes in sick suburban homes.
The horror, the horror, the horror, is everyone you know, and soon
you'll be just as fucked as that from which you grew.
This world’s more fucked up than they tell you.
