Suffocate City Lyrics
(Suffocate)
We graduated with a fever
So full of confidence and ready to achieve
But it's all just a fallacy
Yeah, seven years a true believer
You wake up choking with a pillow on your face
Every plan made, erased
And now we're never getting out
Never getting out of here
They say just settle down
You're never getting out of this place
Welcome to Suffocate City
We're never getting out
Never getting out of here
They say just settle down
You're never getting out of this place
Welcome to Suffocate City
You think you've had enough
But, boy, that's just the half of it
That's when they pull the plug
You're never getting out of this place
Welcome to Suffocate City
Negotiated like a crisis
You come out swinging with a list of your demands
But they're already making plans
Don't get too high and mighty for your britches
Or you might end up in stitches
They'll have their pound of flesh
Feel the hands around your neck
And now we're never getting out
Never getting out
We're never getting out
Never getting out of here
They say just settle down
You're never getting out of this place
Welcome to Suffocate City
You think you've had enough
But, boy, that's just the half of it
That's when they pull the plug
You're never getting out of this place
Welcome to Suffocate City
Oh, oh
I'm suffocating
Never thought it would end this way
Told myself I could finally break
Break the cycle of this cage
But there's no escape
Welcome to Suffocate
Welcome to Suffocate, yeah
Welcome to Suffocate City
And now you're never getting out
Never getting out of here
They say just settle down
You're never getting out of this place
Welcome to Suffocate City
You think you've had enough
But, boy, that's just the half of it
'Cause when they pull the plug
You're never getting out of this place
Welcome to Suffocate City
Welcome to Suffocate
Welcome to Suffocate City

Welcome to Suffocate City
Never getting out of here

Vocalist Lee Jennings commented: “‘Suffocate City‘ speaks to our listeners’ sense of fear. The fear of being stuck in a dead-end job, a dead-end relationship, or a dead-end financial situation. The fear of ‘never getting out’ is a ubiquitous experience that anyone can connect and relate to.” This track also features Spencer Charnas of Ice Nine Kills.
