"Suburbia Hungerstrike" lyrics

"Suburbia Hungerstrike"

Three course dinner and my favorite soup
My mother shows her love through food
Trynna say what she doesn't know how to

I'm reluctant to crack a smile
So I sit there, stoic, for a while
Anger in my throat, might spit out something vile

I was stubborn, stubborn
I chose hunger, hunger

I got a high from saying no
Dinner was the only time I could do so
Had to say yes morning and night
So I made a weapon out of denying my appetite
Oh this is what it was like
My suburbia hunger strike
Oh what a quiet fight
My suburbia hunger strike

Mom vs. daughter, a tale as old as time
I finally see we're on the same side
The box we're in will never be the right size

I was stubborn, stubborn
I chose hunger, hunger

I got a high from saying no
Dinner was the only time I could do so
Had to say yes morning and night
So I made a weapon out of denying my appetite
Oh this is what it was like
My suburbia hunger strike
Oh what a quiet fight
My suburbia hunger strike
