Manic Street Preachers - This Is Yesterday lyrics

Do not listen to a word I say

just listen to what I can keep silent

the only way to gain approval

is by exploiting the very thing that cheapens me

I stare at the sky

and it leaves me blind

I close my eyes

and this is yesterday

someone somewhere soon will take care of you

I repent, I'm sorry, everything is falling apart

houses as ruins and gardens as weeds

why do anything when you can forget everything

I stare at the sky

and it leaves me blind

I close my eyes

and this is yesterday

I stare at the sky
