’Concrete Fields’ by Manic Street Preachers from the 2018 album Resistance is Futile (Deluxe Edition bonus disc). [Intro] [Verse 1] My old school has closed its doors the once  green  fields are now concrete floors and the roads are choking full of misery & fear but my visions getting clearer & my mind it feels so free [Break]        [Verse 2] & the work is hard & the wages are low but the smiles still appear & the rivers still flow and all I can do is sit here and moan but my heart still bleeds for this place that I call home [Chorus]        [Verse 3] My boyhood made of dreams of love the happiest of times sitting with my mum and dad but the bridges the houses now dominate the vaping & the super schools the breeding grounds of hate But those once green fields still live in my mind they seemed so perfect so simple and so kind Just me and my brother were kicking a ball the world so close and so beautiful [Chorus]        [Verse 4] And I got no answers I place no blame I just feel longing and I wanna hear you name as I walk and I run through these once green fields Its easy to see what has disappeared and the air is getting heavy with memory and loss the joy and the freedom but freedom at what cost and the air is getting heavy with memory and loss the joy and the freedom but freedom at what cost [Chorus]               [Break]                         [Verse 5] Is this your inheritance is this all thats left the mountains we climbed are now mountains of debt and the air is getting heavy with memory and loss the joy and the freedom but freedom at what cost [Outro] We had joy we had fun we had seasons in the sun yeah we had We had joy we had fun we had some seasons in the sun yeah we had We had joy we had fun we had some seasons in the sun yeah we had We had joy we had fun we had some seasons in the sun
