Manic Street Preachers
No Surface All Feeling
[Verse 1]
Embarrassed, possessed, and so uncivilised
Just take a look at the whites of my eyes
See me now and I will apologise
For me, for you, we knew they were lies
It makes me angry, ashamed, but really alive
It may have worked, but at what price?
What's the point in always looking back
When all you see is more and more junk?
[Chorus]
It was no surface but all feeling
Maybe at the time, it felt like dreaming
[Verse 2]
Maybe richer, maybe wiser
Seems so easy to not go too far
Beg me to stop, hate my face, I know
And tell me forever just to go
Just one thing before I get to sleep
Nothing here but the stains on my teeth
No, not blood, just liquid from you
I only wish it was the truth
[Chorus]
Feel the guilt of a sinner
Feel the cold of a winter
It was no surface but all feeling
Maybe at the time, it felt like dreaming
[Outro]
