Condemned To Rock 'n' Roll

(words: nicky wire/richey james; music: james dean bradfield/sean moore)



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



A line of vodka tears inside

A shot of boredom helps my mind

Staring through a thousand dead eyes

I guess my nerves are brutalised



Lips i kiss just another plague

Love can't fix the hole they made

Condemned to rock n'

Condemned to rock n' roll



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



This fragile prison of sanity

An ocean wave to death babe

Masochistic love going nowhere

You're nothing, pestilience, a seed



Lips i kiss just another plague

Love can't fix the hole they made

Condemned to rock n'

Oblivions all we know



Lips i kiss just another plague

Lips i kiss just another plague

Love can't fix the hole they made



Sterile like a line of piss, motherfucker

Review with avant garde lips, you're just a motherfucker



There's nothing i wanna see

There's nowhere i wanna go
