Diapause Songtext
von Manic Street Preachers

Is this just the beginning or did I look behind
As I missed your demise as I fell through the night?
I view you like a statue, so tight and controlled
With my heart by your soul, until you find a home

I am not pretending, but I′m turning away
I cannot stay here with these debts I must pay

I mapped out a journey to reach my broken heart
Before I even started, the plan began to fall apart
I've built so many walls to keep these feelings true
I′ve burnt so many bridges, but not the one that leads to you
Thе one that leads to you


I looked into thе sunset, I screamed and I sighed
I raised hope then it died, so I ran and I lied
I stood still for a moment, paralysed
The sky seemed so high as the world passed me by

I can't find a solution as decades unfold
So callous as my standstill takes hold

I mapped out a journey to reach my broken heart
Before I even started, the plan began to fall apart
I've built so many walls to keep these feelings true
I′ve burnt so many bridges, but not the one that leads to you

Broken hearts

Fall apart

I′ve burnt so many bridges, but not the one that leads to you
The one that leads to you


I mapped out a journey to reach my sunken heart
Before I even started, the plan began to fall apart
I've built so many walls to keep these feelings true
I′ve burnt so many bridges, but not the one that leads to you
Thе one that leads to you
