时长: 03:55
Permanent Standby - Felt[00:00:00]
She's in the back of a cab again[00:00:54]
She just packed up her bags and then[00:00:56]
Her new town[00:00:59]
She can bust down and run around[00:00:59]
Had to leave the ex cause he always brought that gun around[00:01:01]
But she's long gone[00:01:04]
He'll never find her[00:01:05]
Just another bad tattoo[00:01:07]
A reminder of her past[00:01:08]
And how they tried to hold her back[00:01:10]
But f**k her home town[00:01:12]
Man that whole scene was wack[00:01:13]
She's in the big city now doing big things[00:01:15]
Works a little retail job[00:01:17]
For a big chain[00:01:19]
She got a car so now she move around efficiently[00:01:20]
She got a car now she hittin' the dispensaries[00:01:22]
She made some friends in the entertainment industry[00:01:25]
But time is wearing thin so she gives into her tendencies[00:01:28]
Postmeridian his calling[00:01:31]
It's been two weeks so she been eight ballin'[00:01:33]
Got the number of a dealer and she called him[00:01:36]
Quick transaction in a bathroom stall then[00:01:38]
Guess who's back in effect[00:01:42]
Dropped in the corner[00:01:44]
Dancing to some dubstep[00:01:45]
Rescued by two dudes who were suspect[00:01:46]
But she was so god damn gone she didn't object[00:01:49]
They messed around[00:01:52]
She was down for the fun and the games[00:01:53]
It doesn't count when she can't remember none of the names[00:01:55]
Rinse repeat[00:01:57]
Weeks in the cycle[00:01:59]
But that dirt don't come clean in the night glow[00:02:00]
Now everybody knows she's the whore[00:02:03]
Where do you go when the blow's not free no more[00:02:05]
Now the city's getting too small[00:02:09]
Walls closin' in but she knows what to do y'all[00:02:11]
She popped a pill and then she packed her bags quick[00:02:13]
She's just too real for this city of plastic[00:02:16]
She came from the desert with a horse with no name[00:02:24]
Half awake waiting at the baggage claim[00:02:27]
The pain killer that she popped as the plane tore off[00:02:29]
It wore off[00:02:32]
Little cousin picked her up in the pick up[00:02:35]
And the minute she got in he lit up a big blunt[00:02:37]
Passed it to her[00:02:40]
She made the end glow[00:02:41]
Pull puff share[00:02:43]
Staring out the window[00:02:43]
Parked outside of a house on the south side[00:02:45]
First couple weeks sleeping on the couch life[00:02:48]
Til she got a job at a department store[00:02:51]
Found a roommate and got a spot up on 24th[00:02:53]
A penny for her thoughts of a better course[00:02:56]
She wanted new friends that she hasn't met before[00:02:59]
Started hittin' up the bar just to let it pour[00:03:01]
Did one line of coke[00:03:04]
And many more[00:03:06]
Everybody loves her[00:03:07]
Is she sure[00:03:08]
I guess it all depends on who she drops them panties for[00:03:09]
When that alcohol calls[00:03:12]
She doesn't hit ignore[00:03:13]
She says give me more[00:03:14]
Until she hits the floor[00:03:15]
Popular with the elite and the creeps[00:03:17]
And people who haven't gone to sleep this week[00:03:19]
They wear disguises like artist and nice guy[00:03:23]
But underneath you know they're just another white line[00:03:25]
F**k these pricks[00:03:28]
F**k these junkies[00:03:29]
F**k this weather[00:03:31]
It's not f**kin' funny[00:03:32]
It's drama[00:03:33]
It's got you actin' like a star[00:03:34]
Shut the f**k up and march your a** back up in that bar[00:03:35]
Midwest[00:03:39]
It won't be long[00:03:40]
Before she jets[00:03:41]
She don't belong[00:03:42]
It's her against anti[00:03:44]
Surfin' this landslide[00:03:45]
At the terminal[00:03:47]
On permanent standby[00:03:48]
