Lyrics
[Verse 1] I don't want my children to grow up like me It's just soul destroying, it's a mocking disease A wasting disease I don't want my children to grow up like me It's just soul destroying, it's a mocking disease A wasting disease Some times I wake up with love still alive I just want to go to sleep, but I can't, I close my eyes I can't, I close my eyes [Chorus 1] I can't fight this war any more Time to surrender, time to move on So line up the firing squads, kiss goodbye to what you want Go with the flow, go home You can keep on struggling when you're alone When you're alone This sullen Welsh heart It won't leave, it won't give up The hating half of me Has won the battle easily [Chorus 2: Lucy Rose] This sullen Welsh heart It won't leave, it won't give up The hating half of me Has won the battle easily The battle easily [Verse 2] The act of creation saves us from despair A phrase that keeps repeating in my head In my head It's not enough to succeed- others must fail My unhappy mantra I wish I could escape I wish I could escape [Chorus 1] [Chorus 2: Lucy Rose] [x3]
