Hostels and Brothels

Lyrics

[Verse 1] So you found me on the floor I'm split open at the seams The lights of Birmingham are wet And blur in front of me Today we woke up at 1 But it gets dark here at 3 It's getting hard to believe in anything [Verse 2] Today I called up my dad Said "I'm off balance and weak" I'm feeling homesick for things I know don't think of me He said "It's gonna get lighter, son, just wait there and see" It's getting hard to believe [Verse 3] Last night in Leeds Ad and I found ourselves wandering the city Looking for pizza All we found was complacency and somewhere to sleep I'm still waiting for the map to say home's a week away [Verse 4] The boys are drowning in Strongbow I'm amazed they can breathe Weeble's just got caught stealing a Christmas tree We drove all the way to Glasgow just watch our defeat The venue flooded Guess the band last night was too heavy [Verse 5] Last night in Leeds Joe was talking to some bar maid Trying to get lucky I think it almost worked until he ran into Bobby That kid pulled the cock-block of the century [Chorus] I'm still waiting for the map to say home's a week away Unless Grey Britain comes to me and says "It's not so bad if you don't look at it that way" [Verse 6] Last night in Leeds The world collapsed all around me Along with a shelf in the basement of Liv's house By two or three, I thought we'd lost Josh and Mikey They were skyhooking cans they hadn't emptied out [Verse 7] Last night in Leeds I know we woke all the neighbours But I don't think anybody slept that night Last night in Leeds Things got a bit lighter I guess my dad was right [Chorus] I'm still waiting for the map to say home's a week away Unless Grey Britain comes to me and says "It's not so bad if you don't look at it that way"
