(A/N This is the lyrics to the other song I had to make for my music GCSE. It's worth 15% of my overall grade and I would really appreciate it if you could give it a listen! I created all the music and words and provided the backing vocals in verses 1 & 3 and chorus' 2 & 4 . My friend did the main vocals for me)

Dirty town

If a dirty town will get you down

Then I should be six feet underground

There's nothing I love in this dirty town

.

Want to leave but I can't get out of here

Want to stay but I can't face all my fears

If I leave then I will never come back

.

I look around this place I call home

But it's all deserted and I'm on my own

don't think it's safe to be out alone

Can't ever let the children roam

.

I try to get to the door

But I can't see any more

How could I be so blind?

This dirty town that's on my mind

.

She tries to get to the door

But she can't see any more

How could she be so blind?

This dirty town that's on her mind

.

I need to leave this god damn slum

Full of guns

And full of shame

she wants the same

.

You don't know what goes on here

All the children live in constant fear

Families broken, shattered like panes of glass

Before it cuts me, I gotta get out fast

.

On the bright side I grew up here

All of my memories they were made here

All of my friends now how could I forget?

Maybe it's not so bad?

.

All the people in the town are going mad

They laugh when I say it's all bad

They grabbed me by the wrists and they wont

They wont let me leave

.

I try to get to the door

But I can't see any more

The whole town's gone blind

Oh God they're getting into my mind

.

Gotta get out of here and I

Gotta get out of here

I need to leave

now I can't breathe

.

now I can't breathe
