Manic Street Preachers
Methadone Pretty
[Verse 1]
I am nothing and should be everything
You're methadone pretty, surrender in pity
Intentional destruction germ
Eats your thoughts and make you happy
[Chorus]
They wanna piece of your skin
Pump it safer than, than a suicide
Methadone pretty
Methadone pretty
[Verse 2]
Heart beats like a refugee machine
Pretty hostage mass, licensed to obey
Xerox days to acceptance
Decline accelerates into prejudice
[Chorus]
They wanna piece of your skin
Pump it safer than, than a suicide
Methadone pretty
Methadone pretty
[Bridge]
I accuse history, I accuse
I accuse history, I accuse
I accuse history
I accuse history, I accuse
I accuse history, I accuse
I don't need your history
[Verse 3]
Wreckage inside all that's real
Another bought product, no reality
Passive consumers with patrolled desires
Mindless countdown to retirement
[Chorus]
They wanna piece of your skin
Pump it safer than, than a suicide
Gonna stay a terminal young thing
An' never going to be methadone pretty
[Outro]
Methadone pretty
Methadone pretty
Methadone
