Cold and Blue (feat. Matt Orion)

She wakes up counts the mold spots on the ceiling
Goes to check the heating seems the boilers fucked again
Goes down stairs the hungry mouths need feeding
Hopes that she starts bleeding soon, doesn't need another one
He came over last week giving it all that
Thinks that he's the big man but he's just a useless twat
Sowed his oats and left wont be coming back
Not while there's responsibility
Drops the brats at school then heads off to work
Pays more in childcare than she earns, but rent gets paid in return
Maybe one day, one will go to uni
And get a high paid job, maybe pay all her debt off
Fat chance of that the kids cant stand her guts
Just want to get out cos her moaning drives them nuts
Never asked for a life of benefits and cuts
No one said that it was easy

Who grows up wanting to be a burden
No one wants a life so uncertain
No one wants to be alone
We're just living to get old

End of the day heading off to bed
Wishes that she had a smoke or a least a decent bloke
More chance of finding rocking horse shit
No point feeling sorry for yourself
Wont help your mental health
Take a pill hope the stress goes away
Hope the landlords notice doesn't come today
Just one day that kinda goes your way
Is that too much to be asking

Who grows up wanting to be a burden
No one wants a life so uncertain
No one wants to be alone
We're just living to get old
