benefits - relentless lyrics

[verse 1: kingsley hall]
you tell yourself it’s never too late
that there’ll always be a chance
that thin layer of romance
as you dig down, deeper into that grave
tired of being brave for the new wave
and it’s tough i know
endlessly hearing i told you so, it’s relentless
so you take it back to the start
when your heart beat faster
and your eyes glowed wide
no worries, no fear, just pride
remembering those nights that didn’t stop for days
swearing to stick togеther for always
breakfast without sleep, then going again
evеry conversation life affirming
every glance, a love
you smile and stare at each other through the morning mist
still a bit p+ssed, memories missed
that hit of cold air, the tv glare
the pace of it all, the disrepair
no consequence, no care

[refrain: kingsley hall & pete doherty]
oh, the good old days
oh, the good old days
[verse 2: kingsley hall]
and before the lows, come the highs
and we rub cheap cans away from our starry eyes
modern life hits hard
like a brick from a pr+ck, continually caught off guard
and you’re surely not here to just pay bills and then die
as you inevitably succumb to the grind
but you try and try
yet glimmers of joy shine through
like a special effect in a hollywood movie
you explode, rise up, it’s obscene
filling the widescreen
you are immaculate, unbeatable, infinite
and you try to calm down
as vast elements of your life fade into insignificance
those private words in your ear, off record dressing downs
from middle management clowns
thanks but no thanks, i’ll take my chance
and i want to settle down
build back some self esteem
but it’s easy to shout, and it’s easy to scream
to tell the world to just f+ck off and die
but no one is asking why
no one is asking why

[refrain: kingsley hall & pete doherty]
oh, the good old days
oh, the good old days
[outro: pete doherty]
