lyrics

The paranoia wasn’t too hard to shake
Warm welcomes and mugs of tea
The weekend soundtrack, Steel Pulse and Nick Drake
Helped us traverse the heights of Keighley

Flying high on a make-shift swing
Alleviates anxiety
Through fear of failure, the harder we’d cling
Never mind the study, our memories are muddy
The fantasy of Keighley

Fruity trainers, embarrassment on the bus
Strange looks, indifferent stares
Collective denial, what’s all the fuss?
We navigated the heights of Keighley

Flying high on a make-shift swing
Alleviates anxiety
Through fear of failure, the harder we’d cling
Never mind the study, our memories are muddy
The fantasy of Keighley

Scattered papers, tobacco tapes
Conversations obscure
Sepia photos make out the shapes
Of the landscape so pure

It didn’t help much, superior education
We misunderstood reality
The stakes were higher for that special creation
That was the heights of Keighley
