from Manic Street Preachers - (It`s Not War) Just The End Of Love [single] (2010)
to feel forgiveness, you gotta forgive
do you see the stars or the darkness begin? you fight your war, i fight for my life you pay your dues and i'll pay mine it's not war - just the end of love just like before but it's never enough oh, it's never enough you fight your war, i fight for my life you pay your dues, and i never pay mine to feel forgiveness you gotta forgive it's lost on me, i believe in revenge it's not war - just the end of love you've got the looks, but i've got the scars it's not war - just the end of love to feel some tenderness, do you have to give up? do you have to give up? oh, do you have to give up? it's not war - just the end of love (just the end of...) just like before, but it's never enough it's not war - just the end of love you weathered the storm but sheltered the loss but sheltered the loss but sheltered the loss |

1985
In 1985, I placed a bet and lied, losing all that I had, at least with all my heart intact. In 1985, Orwell was proved right, Torville and Dean's bolero, redundant as a sad welsh chapel. In 1985, in 1985. So God is dead, like Nietzsche said, superstition is all we have left. Circle the wagons, we're under attack, we've realised there's no going back, we've realised there's no going back. In 1985, the Civil War failed why?, kept hidden like scars of birth, nature unable to soften the words. In 1985, my words they came alive, friends were made for life, Morrissey and Marr gave me choice. In 1985, in 1985. So God is dead, like Nietzsche said, only 16 years of age, he said. See all the tears, for the walking dead, we've realised there's no going back, we've realised there's no going back. In 1985, I placed a bet and lied, losing all that I had. |

Screaming through the galaxy
Trapped in this eternity Stranded helpless, endlessly Alone, the lost vigilantes Forever ever delayed Forever ever delayed From the city to the sea Will you all come follow me To a place where we are free Not tied to guilt or tied to greed Forever ever delayed Forever ever delayed Forever ever betrayed Forever delayed Forever ever delayed Forever ever delayed Forever ever betrayed Forever delayed |

Days since I last pissed
Cheeks sunken and despaired So gorgeous sunk to six stone Lose my only remaining home See my third rib appear A week later all my flesh disappear Stretching taut, cling-film on bone Im getting better Karen says Ive reached my target weight Kate and emma and kristin know its fake Problem is diets not a big enough word I wanna be so skinny that I rot from view I want to walk in the snow And not leave a footprint I want to walk in the snow And not soil its purity Stomach collapsed at five Lift up my skirt my sex is gone Naked and lovely and 5st. 2 May I bud and never flower My visions getting blurred But I can see my ribs and I feel fine My hands are trembling stalks And I can feel my breasts are sinking Mother trys to choke me with roast beef And sits savouring her sole ryvitta Thats the way youre built my father said But I can change, my cocoon shedding I want to walk in the snow And not leave a footprint I want to walk in the snow And not soil its purity Kate and kristin and kit kat All things I like looking at Too weak to fuss, too weak to die Choice is skeletal in everybodys life I choose, my choice, I starve to frenzy Hunger soon passes and sickness soon tires Legs bend, stockinged I am twiggy And I dont mind the horror that surrounds me Self-worth scatters, self-esteems a bore I long since moved to a higher plateau This disciplines so rare so please applaud Just look at the fat scum who pamper me so Yeh 4st. 7, an epilogue of youth Such beautiful dignity in self-abuse Ive finally come to understand life Through staring blankly at my navel. |

We've finally found a way
To consume boredom everyday We've all become our personal gods We've all become so sad and lost So sad so sad so sad and lost A billion balconies facing the sun A billion faces turned to their screens The perfect answer to camouflage our screams A billion lies becoming the truth An ecstasy of the eye As wide as eternity tonight As wide as eternity tonight We found expression for our hate Without any kind of consequence Who needs patience anymore When all our pleasures virtual Pleasures pleasures pleasures virtual A billion balconies facing the sun A billion faces turned to their screens The perfect answer to camouflage our screams A billion lies becoming the truth An ecstasy of the eye As wide as eternity tonight As wide as eternity tonight |

And all the masks I carry on my face
For you, for another Some calm and then some grace But once within a long and broken night A face like mine, bereft of dreams and white This is a song, this is a song a song for a departure This is a song This is a song, this is a song a song to take you homewards This is a song Maybe this strangeness only ever was To hide ourselves from some kind of happiness But always the moment it just seems to stay Tearing it off like so many calendar days This is a song, this is a song a song for a departure This is a song This is a song, this is a song a song to break your heart to This is a song This is a song, this is a song a song for broken lovers This is a song This is a song, this is a song a song to take you homewards This is a song This is a song, this is a song a song to break your heart to This is a song |

Haven't shaved for days
Keeps the appearance of delay The luxury of one more dye Pretend humility, the ugly lie I would prefer no choice One bread, one milk, one food, that's all I'm confused, I only want one truth I really don't mind being lied to It's not "What's wrong?" It's "What's right?" Makes you feel like I'm talking a foreign language sometimes It's not "What's wrong?" It's "What's right?" It's the facts of life sunshine It's the facts of life sunshine It's the facts of life my sunshine |

I'm no longer preaching to the converted
That congregation has long ago deserted And we discovered was even more despair But we learned how to cope, we learnt now not to care And the sun will still keep rising Always deflecting, always disguising Was there ever another place Did we ever really exist? All we make is entertainment A sad indictment of what we're good at We're all part of the grand delusion We made so much and we let it all crumble To safeguard our rights to make us more "human" Oh this country is but an empty shell A clearing house for heaven, a clearing house for hell And the sun will still keep rising Always deflecting, always disguising Was there ever another place Did we ever really exist? All we make is entertainment It's so damn easy and inescapable "We're so post-modern, We're so post-everything" All we make is entertainment An end to hope and civilisation A simple way to seek perfection The insides of our nation have been exposed It only confirms what we already know Pointless jobs just lead to pointless lives Breaking up our bones, breaking up our minds |

Drugs come out of boredom babe U.N. exports it everyday Their armies feed the ghetto lame Government approve it just the same Daylight bores the sunshine out of me I need to feel alone amongst the weeds Daylight bores the sunshine out of me I need to feel, I need to feel, I need to feel, I need to feel We need and we will always need Another invented disease We need and we are taught to need Another invented disease Left alone in corporate slums Where germs are free not Amex fun Healthy bodies in empty minds Only exist in advert time Sunk deep in my TV Maybe sucked the soul from within me We need and we will always need Another invented disease We need and we are taught to need Another invented disease |

Askew Road, with charm of napalm
A second home, with love for you all Askew Road, with bullet proof vows Always facing hostility and doubt You make your beds boys, and clear your heads boys Leave your life behind, reclaim it when you can Like a deep loss, already restored Humane and deeply flawed Askew Road, with cigarette burns A second home, with love for you all Askew Road, with bullet proof vows Always facing hostility and doubt You make your beds boys, and clear your heads boys Leave your life behind, reclaim it when you can Like a deep loss, already restored Humane and deeply flawed "Most bands have no respect for us at all, Which is fine because we didn't form a band To get respect from other musicians, you know That was never an important criteria to us It's just tragic I think" Askew Road, a place in my heart Forever hoping we'll all make our way back |

The more I want to be me, the less I know myself
The living left to die, while ghosts are brought to life Welcome to these slave trades Drained of delusion and buried in debt How the hell do we find each other suffering auto-intoxication But disaster isn't coming, it's already arrived I am so lucky, I think that I survived I am what I am, my body belongs to me My work will set me free and fulfil my dreams A new economy embraces the ruins It makes us strong and soothes our fears Welcome to these slave trades Drained of delusion and buried in debt How the hell do we find each other suffering auto-intoxication But disaster isn't coming, it's already arrived I am so lucky, I think that I survived |

Is it a kind of dream
Floating down on the river Following the river of death down stream Oh is it a dream? There's a fog on the horizon A strange glow in the sky And nobody knows where you can go Or what does it mean Oh, oh is it a dream Bright eyes Burning like fire Bright eyes How can you close and fail How can the eyes that burned so brightly Suddenly turn so pale? Bright eyes Is it a kind of shadow Reaching over the hill Wandering over the hills unseen Or is it a dream There's a high wind in the trees A cold sound in the air And nobody knows where you can go And where do you start Oh oh, into the dark Bright eyes Burning like fire Bright eyes How can you close and fail How can the eyes that burned so brightly Suddenly grow so pale Bright eyes |

Reach out for the first person I see Comforts the helpless sole vanity Caressing the broken heart of me The difference between love and comfort Is that comfort's more reliable and true Brutal and mocking but always there A crutch for emnity's saddest glare I wish that someone would hold me Wrap their arms around a shrinking somebody Comfort comes and ease me till the morning Whispered words of sanctuary The difference between love and comfort Is that comfort's more reliable and true Brutal and mocking but always there A crutch for emnity's saddest glare Forgetting how I hate self-pity blonde Comfort comes and smooths her over Calloused hands turn a beautiful dress Handcuffs now her pearl bracelets |

Sovereign fingers scrape our lives until we are bought
Screaming comatose with blackboard chalk Siphoned minds suck a wallet full of love Spitting out a language I don't wanna talk Mother of the free she said that we'd breathe Mother of the free but we just scream To me the coronation's another auto-da-fe Taught in schools to see her as a glorious being I don't see happy homes but the Belfast wall In Walkman sounds hear Sony control Mother of the free she said that we'd breathe Mother of the free but we just scream Mother of the free she said that we'd breathe Mother of the free but we just scream Parliament mother of United Nations Mother of history's dead son, dead sons DNA of restriction and law Death, famine, spectacle and war Mother of the free she said that we'd breathe Mother of the free but we just scream Mother of the free she said that we'd breathe Mother of the free but we just scream And shocks of hospitals and jails and wars Whole intellects disgorged in total recall In Walkman sounds hear Sony control |

Libraries gave us power Then work came and made us free What price now for a shallow piece of dignity I wish I had a bottle Right here in my dirty face to where the scars To show from where I came We don't talk about love we only want to get drunk We are not allowed to spend And we are told that this is the end A design for life x4 I wish I had a bottle Right here in my pretty face to where the scars To show from where I came We don't talk about love we only want to get drunk We are not allowed to spend And we are told that this is the end A design for life x4 We don't talk about love we only want to get drunk We are not allowed to spend And we are told that this is the end A design for life x4 |

Scratch my leg with a rusty nail, sadly it heals
Colour my hair but the dye grows out I cant seem to stay a fixed ideal Childhood pictures redeem, clean and so serene See myself without running lines Whole days throwing sticks into streams I have crawled so far sideways I recognise dim traces of creation I wanna die, die in the summertime The hole in my life even stains the soil My heart shrinks to barely a pulse A tiny animal curled into a quarter circle If you really care wash the feet of a beggar I have crawled so far sideways I recognise dim traces of creation I wanna die, die in the summertime I have crawled so far sideways I recognise dim traces of creation I wanna die, die in the summertime. |

To the point of no return The sickos and the bullies praise your name You then wrench their lives with pleasure and fame As corporate as a suit you won't wear As stupid as the jeans you tear As evil as the pretense you care God save us all from Satan's stare Oh, don't be evil, just be corporate And fool the world with your own importance Betray your tedium for the world to see Your own movie star and it's for free The lines have all been blurred To the point of no return With normal people living normal lives Normal things seen through normal eyes As corporate as the suit you won't wear As stupid as the jeans you tear As evil as the pretense you care God save us all from Satan's stare Oh, don't be evil, just be corporate And fool the world with your own importance Betray your tedium for the world to see Your own movie star and it's for free Oh, don't be evil, just be corporate And fool the world with your own importance Betray your tedium for the world to see Your own movie star and it's for free, it is for free The music's going, the sun is showing The printed word is all done and dusted Oh, don't be evil, just be corporate And fool the world with your own importance The music's going, the sun is showing Pretend technology made us equal Oh, don't be evil, just be corporate And fool the world with your own importance |

Realise how lonely this is
Self-defeating, oh, fuck, yeah Drowned in love and false kisses A gathering of no meaning That shadow is a cross okay Judgement must willing today Silence is not sacrifice Crucifixion is the easy life Who threw the first stone If the stone is you Forgive them forsaken Bleeding feet an angel's saviour That shadow is a cross okay Judgement must be willing today Silence is not sacrifice Crucifixion is the easy life Embrace to betrayal An arms army salvation Listen to the selfish ones They are the voice of accomplishment |

Roses in the hospital
Try to pull my finger nails out Roses in the hospital I want to cling to something soft Roses in the hospital Progressing like a constant war Roses in the hospital There's no one to feel ashamed for All we wanted was a home Now we're so strung out we wanna own Like a leaf in the autumn breeze Like a flood in January We don't want your fucking love Roses in the hospital Stub cigarettes out on my arm Roses in the hospital Want to feel something of value Roses in the hospital Nothing really makes me happy Roses in the hospital Heroin is just too trendy All we wanted was a home Now we're so strung out we wanna own Like a leaf in the autumn breeze Like a flood in January We don't want your fucking love Roses in the hospital This century achieved so much Roses in the hospital To make a voice no voice at all Roses in the hospital Flowers cannot express the loss Roses in the hospital Torn reflections of burnt out trash Of burnt out trash Forever ever delayed Forever ever delayed Forever Forever Forever ever delayed Independence is a game Forever ever delayed Credibility, I'm yawning Forever Forever Rudi Rudi Rudi Rudi gonna fail Forever ever delayed Forever delayed Forever Forever Forever delayed The West scratches onto my skin Forever delayed Contagious like a suntan We never felt any sun |

Emily, Emily your gift to me
Emily, a modern sense of beauty Emily, as precious as your memory A simple word called liberty The relics, the ghosts, all down so many roads The relics, the ghosts, all down so many roads Emily, so pity poor Emily You've been replaced by charity It's what you forget, what you forget that kills you It's what you remember, what you remember that makes you We used to have answers, now we have only questions But now have no direction The relics, the ghosts, all down so many roads The relics, the ghosts, all down so many roads Emily, so pity poor Emily You've been replaced by charity It's what you forget, what you forget that kills you It's what you remember, what you remember that makes you We used to have answers, now we have only questions But now have no direction |

Empty souls will leave their homes
To find a place where they're alone Rattling memories and hollow bones Leaves a taste so bitter and cold For empty souls will stand alone Shivering like black-eyed dogs Waiting to be taken home Where that is they only know Exposed to a truth we don't know Collapsing like the twin towers Falling down like April showers Colossal endless like a marathon God knows what makes the comparison God knows what makes the comparison For the empty souls - for the empty souls For empty souls they stand alone Shivering like black-eyed dogs Waiting to be taken home Where that is they only know Exposed to a truth we don't know Collapsing like the twin towers Falling down like April showers Colossal endless like a marathon God knows what makes the comparison God knows what makes the comparison For the empty souls - for the empty souls Colossal endless like a marathon God knows what makes the comparison God knows what makes the comparison For the empty souls - for the empty souls. |

For all the money and indecision - indecision - indecision Feels like there's no escape Except through my hate Second hand germ warfare Denied oxygen everywhere Like a stunned fox - with memory loss A sad numb creature - I worship the painkiller It is my epicentre It is my epicentre Non-existent energy adrenaline my god Still clinging to the umbilical cord - umbilical cord I'm breaking and I'm shaking - so delete the feeling Beneath the real thing - delete the feeling - delete the feeling Like a stunned fox - with memory loss A sad numb creature - I worship the painkiller It is my epicentre I'm sleeping myself away Into the blurred life of yesterday Tip-tip-a-tapping tip-tip-a-tapping My nerves are destroyed Feels like there's no escape Except through my hate Second hand germ warfare Denied oxygen everywhere Like a stunned fox - with memory loss A sad numb creature - I worship the painkiller This is my epicentre This is my epicentre You don't drink - you don't get high So make sure you take your medicine boy You don't drink - you don't get high So make sure you take your medicine boy This is my epicentre |
