Manic Street Preachers
Ready for Drowning
[Verse 1]
Here's a true story said someone to me yesterday
Said he'd heard it in a taxi
Must have had him at my mercy
Drown that poor thing
Put it out of its misery
Condemn it to its future
Deny its history
Deny its history

[Chorus]
So where are we going
We're not ready for drowning
So where are we going
We're not ready for drowning

[Verse 2]
Look through my Venetian blinds
Dusting the past off of my mind
Seeing orange everywhere
I'd go to Patagonia
But it's harder there
I'll do anything to prove I care
Fascinated by good
Destroyed by evil
What is there to believe in
[Chorus]
So where are we going
We're not ready for drowning
So where are we going
We're not ready for drowning

[Bridge]
I will bring the whole edifice
Down on their unworthy heads

[Chorus]
So where are we going
We're not ready for drowning
So where are we going
We are not waving we're drowning
