"Suburbia" by Troye Sivan is a nostalgic reflection on the artist's hometown and the memories associated with it. The song speaks to the feeling of being stuck in a small town and feeling like you can never truly leave or escape the memories and experiences that shaped you.

The first verse paints a picture of a town where nothing happens, and where people's dreams go to die. The boys work on their cars, and the girls are swept up in the excitement of young love. The pre-chorus talks about the history that is embedded in the town, from the food to the people. The chorus reflects on the idea that, no matter where life takes you, your hometown will always be a part of you. The artist wonders if people from his town have heard his music, and if it brings back memories of the town.

The second verse continues the theme of nostalgia, with the artist swallowing his memories and chasing them with lime. He recognizes that he can't go back to change things, and the feeling of having lost what was once his is palpable.

The bridge reinforces the idea that nothing ever changes, even as people age and lines appear on their faces. The final chorus is a declaration that, no matter where life takes the artist, he will always hold onto his memories of suburbia. The song serves as a reminder that our past shapes us and that, even if we try to leave it behind, it will always be a part of us.
