Permanent Standby - Felt Lyrics




[Murs]



She's in the back of a cab again

She just packed up her bags and then

Her new town she can bust down and run around

Had to leave the ex cause he always brought that gun

around

But she's long gone, he'll never find her

Just another bad tattoo, her reminder

Of a past and how they tried to hold her back

But fuck her hometown man that whole scene was whack

She's in the big city now doing big things

Works a little retail job for a big chain

She got a car now she move around efficiently

She got a car now she hitting the dispensary

She made some friends in the entertainment industry

But time is wearing thin so she gives into her

tendencies

Post-moridium is calling

Been two weeks and she's been eight balling

Got the number of the dealer and she called him

Quick transaction in the bathroom stall and

Guess who's back in effect

Dropped in the corner dancing to some dubstep

Rescued by two dudes who were suspect

But she was so goddamned gone she didn't object

They messed around, she was down for the fun and the

games

It doesn't count when she can't remember none of their

names

Rinse, repeat, weeks in the cycle

But that dirt don't come clean in the night glow

Now everybody know that she's a whore

Where do you go when the blow's not free no more?

Now the city's getting too small

Walls closing in but she knows what to do y'all

She popped a pill then she packed her bags quick

She's just too real for this city of plastic



[Slug]



She came from the desert on a horse with no name

Half-awake waiting at the baggage claims

The painkiller that she popped as the plane tore off

ain't wore off

Little cousin picked her up in the pickup

And the minute she got in it he lit up a big blunt

Passed it to her, she made the end glow

Pull, puff, share, staring out the window

Parked outside a house on the south side

First couple weeks sleeping on the couch life

Till she got a job at a department store

Found a roommate and got a spot up on 24th

A penny for her thoughts of a better course

She wanted new friends that she hasn't met before

Started hitting up the bar just to let it pour

Did one line of coke and many more

Everybody loves her, is she sure?

I guess it all depends on who she drop them panties for

When the alcohol call she doesn't hit ignore

She says give me more until she hits the floor

Popular with the elite and the creeps

And then people who haven't gone to sleep this week

They wear disguises like artists, they're nice guys

But underneath you know they're just another white line

Fuck these pricks, fuck these junkies

Fuck this weather, it's not fucking funny

This drama has got you acting like a star

Shut the fuck up and march your ass back up in that bar

Midwest, it won't be long before she jets

She don't belong, it's her against anti, surfing this

landslide

At the terminal on permanent standby
