MANIC STREET PREACHERS - Spectators Of Suicide lyrics

rate me

(Words: Nicky Wire/Richey James; Music: James Dean Bradfield/Sean Moore)

Obedience to the law is free desire

Under curfew from neon barbed wire

Wasting away this country, wearing like a born dead

Free heroin shots for those who never beg

Spectators of suicide

Exported in society's eyes

Democracy is an empty lie

Dead like our yesterdays tonight

The only free choice is refusal to beg

Life reduced to suicidal pain

Cigarettes a life-line, it's safety in death

Choking on the billboards, advertised and fed

Spectators of suicide

Exported in society's eyes

Democracy is an empty lie

Dead like our yesterdays tonight

You're gonna shoot us dead with decadence

You're gonna shoot us dead with decadence
