lyrics

There is a cast of characters you don't see.
There are scores of extras in this movie.
There are selfish sons and wayward ones,
teenage tearaways on the run.
A daughter comes home pregnant,
shes fourteen.

There is a cast of characters for you to see.
There are tons of people working hard behind the scenes.
There's a mothers love for a drugged up son,
a single father who will struggle on,
and children who cant sleep because they're hungry.

This is the world we live in.

People working every single night,
just to sleep alone,
in a bed that's never made.
In a house that never feels like home.
We take it all for granted,
this air that we breathe.
The characters we meet.
Welcome to the world.

There is a cast of characters you don't see.
There's a million and one best sellers for you to read.
You may laugh at the old lady who talks to her dog,
but its just something to love now her husbands gone.
A friendly ear to talk to.
Shes lonely.
There is a cast of characters to meet and greet.
There are countless people rewriting there stories.
There's a tracksuit teen, who gives up his seat.
A well-mannered junkie.
Kiddie fiddling priest.
A daughter comes home pregnant.
Shes fourteen.

This is the world we live in.

People working every single night,
just to sleep alone,
in a bed that's never made.
In a house that never feels like home.
We take it all for granted,
this air that we breathe.
The characters we meet.
Welcome to the world.

Skellums Wales, UK

Skellums was formed because there was nothing else left to do.

Underneath all the dirty guitars and drums, there lives a pop song. Skellums believe, that as long as you have a melody, you can get away with all sorts.

Crichton.
