Manic Street Preachers
Love’s Sweet Exile
[Narration]
Between the billboard masturbation
Across highways of metallic isolation
There lies the deafening screaming of the millions
Wiping out the diseased pages
Of apathy that bleed our innocence

[Chorus 1]
Love's sweet exile
Love's sweet exile

[Verse 1]
We blur into images of state coercion
Classified machines die misunderstood
City reflections pour out misery
We don't count 'cause we hate

[Chorus 2]
Raindown alienation
Leave this country
Leave this country
Raindown alienation
Leave this country
Leave it

[Verse 2]
Despair seeps through and cuts our eyes
Unified collapse of everything inside
We understand but can't accept
You are not dead 'cause we hate
[Chorus 2]
Raindown alienation
Leave this country
Leave this country
Raindown alienation
Leave this country
Leave it

[Verse 3]
Our lives drift into a faceless sense of void
Everything of meaning becomes destroyed
There's too much concrete for us to breathe
We are kept down 'cause we hate

[Chorus 1]
Love's sweet exile
Love's sweet exile

[Chorus 2]
Raindown alienation
Leave this country
Leave this country
Raindown alienation
Leave this country
Leave it
[Chorus 1]
Love's sweet exile
Love's sweet exile
