Archives of Pain Songtext
von Manic Street Preachers

If hospitals cure
Then prisons must bring their pain
Do not be ashamed to slaughter
The centre of humanity is cruelty
There is never redemption
Any fool can regret yesterday
Nail it to the House of Lords
You will be buried in the same box as a killer, as a killer, as a killer

A drained white body hanging from the gallows
Is more righteous that Hindley′s crotchet lectures
Pain not penance, forget martyrs, remember victims
The weak die young and right now we crouch to make them strong


Kill Yeltsin, who's saying? Zhirinovsky, Le Pen, Hindley and
Brady, Ireland, Allit, Sutcliffe, Dahmer, Nielson, Yoshinori
Ueda, Blanche and Pickles, Amin, Milosovic

Give them respect they deserve
Give them the respect they deserve

Execution needed
A bloody vessel for your peace
If man makes death then death makes man
Tear the torso with horses and chains
Killers view themselves like they view the world, they pick at the holes
Not punish less, rise the pain
Sterilise rapists, all I preach is extinction

Kill Yeltsin, who′s saying? Zhirinovsky, Le Pen, Hindley and
Brady, Ireland, Allit, Sutcliffe, Dahmer, Nielson, Yoshinori
Ueda, Blanche and Pickles, Amin, Milosovic

Give them respect they deserve
Give them the respect they deserve
