Manic Street Preachers
Condemned to Rock ‘N’ Roll
[Verse 1]
Always feeling torn and slow
Love song cull destroy poem
Misery and trauma making love
Best go shoot the fucking doves

The past is so beautiful
The future like a corpse in snow
I think it's all the fucking same
It's a life sentence babe

[Pre-Chorus 1]
A line of vodka tears inside
A shot of boredom helps my mind
Staring through a thousand dead eyes
I guess my nerves are brutalized

[Chorus 1]
Lips I kiss just another plague
Love can't fix the hole they made
Condemned to rock n'
Condemned to rock n' roll

[Verse 2]
No innocent exit when hope dies
And claustrophobia buys my mind
I ran to breathe contagious lies
No reasons for just living life
Ripcord opens but my soul is cold
With you I never felt more alone
Skin never sweating dignity
Kept my line beneath ecstasy

[Pre-Chorus 2]
This fragile prison of sanity
An ocean wave to death babe
Masochistic love going nowhere
You're nothing, pestilence, a seed

[Chorus 2]
Lips I kiss just another plague
Love can't fix the hole they made
Condemned to rock n'
Oblivions all we know

[Bridge]
Lips I kiss just another plague
Lips I kiss just another plague
Love can't fix the hole they made

[Instrumental Bridge]
[Guitar Solo]

[Outro]
Sterile like a line of piss, motherfucker
Review with avant garde lips, you're just a motherfucker
There's nothing I want to see
There's nowhere I want to go
