the pretty visitors - western skies lyrics

i feel alright but then it starts to rise until it drowns my mind, taste of something bitter
them and i, taken for a ride under these western skies, lead me to the river

and it’s just like this, i get up every day small town and no play
neighbours glares for parking in the vicinity of their front gate
letter from the slc tea+stained ‘we need work information that’s up to date’
up to date? i’m 27 mate, and living in the third bedroom of my parents estate for a non+existent rate
living off a pint a week from the cheapest boozer on a dead end street
applying for offers i never receive, scratching at my smartphone screen woe is me
some day everything’s gonna be be different
some day i’ll paint my masterpiece + just wait and see

i feel alright but then it starts to rise until it drowns my mind, taste of something bitter
them and i, taken for a ride under these western skies, lead me to the river

i head down town to potter around look into mcdonalds to see a heavy crowd
library stands under grey clouds and is utterly empty
derelict as the day it was erected
next door at town hall i can see the tory mp who will never be contested and forever elected
sometimes it feels like a fishbowl you know?
market stalls coming from the back of a lorry
employees of the nail salon from the back of a lorry
varnishing the nails of ignorant middle+class ladies with faces of fury
some day everything’s gonna be different
some day they’ll paint their masterpiece + just wait and see
i feel alright but then it starts to rise until it drowns my mind, taste of something bitter
them and i, taken for a ride under these western skies, lead me to the river

‘ah mr reid signing on again i believe?
i see you’ve got a degree i’ve got an opening working the tills at kfc
hand me your cv and we can start paying off those mammoth tuition fees’

i feel alright but then it starts to rise until it drowns my mind, taste of something bitter
them and i, taken for a ride under these western skies, lead me to the river
