She’s a rebel in her leisure time
Met her on the march as we walked in line.
Vegan bag, red pleather shoes,
She knew more than me on the main issues.
She’s a rebel, she’s without despair
Momentum flag, red henna hair.
As this darkness marching in
Let’s not fight amongst ourselves again.
Now I’m a rebel when not at work
Where I’m just a glorified office clerk.
Another commute and another day,
Take my time for no more pay.

I’ve tried Chinese remedies, so many herbal teas
Don’t make me take another diazepam, let me have an hour in dreamland
And I thought about your face, slow walking down to homebase
Return this we might need
Why did you have to leave
We had such a charmed life
We had such a charmed life
And I know you’re safe in your bed, pillow beneath your head
It’s a comforting perspective, a little known EU directive
Map on your coffee cup, looks strange now we’ve split u
Americano bitter to swallow,
Why did you have to go?
We had such a charmed life
We had such a charmed life
We had such a charmed life
We had such a charmed life

Inflation’s up and wages down, personal fiscal meltown
My iPhone rings, it’s PPI, their persistence, I wanna cry
Don’t need more things, but I want more things, guitar pedals, new bass strings
I bought myself a caravan, now we staycation in Camber Sands
I know that I, tend to fixate, but your cold heart is pure clickbait
It’s not my fault, I can’t confess, on both sides it’s such a mess.
Our credit cards, are all maxed out, can’t bare to look at the checkout,
Relationship, destabilised, empty words, another rile
Your grey blue eyes, conceal the blackest heart
Barbed wire, has ripped us all apart
Your grey blue eyes, conceal the blackest heart
Barbed wire, has ripped us all apart

This is very close to what I heard/felt everytime we visited the grandparents in Runcorn. Ominous dread. Bleak dystopia. Concrete and terraced houses. Plus the air smells!
