Distractions Songtext
von Manic Street Preachers

It′s like the great man has written and has said
There is no love, only willing gentleness
The testimonials are exiting the turnstyles
A limitless supply of modern distractions

Data junkies, future PLC's
Misinterpretations through remote control
No domiciles, no time to reconcile
How you can hate with so much joy

Distractions, denials
Anything to avoid
The men from the mobs
Lament the destroyed
Distractions, denials
Built to deceive
Anything to sidestep
A reason to believe


Frameless icons warn of the danger
Deflecting our pursuit, deflecting the answers
Distracted to the point of no return
Trying to make sense of nothing at all

It′s like the great man has written and has said
There is no love, only willing gentleness
The testimonials are exiting the turnstyles
A limitless supply of modern distractions

Distractions, denials
Anything to avoid
The men from the mobs
Lament the destroyed
Distractions, denials
Built to deceive
Anything to sidestep
A reason to believe


Distractions, denials
Anything to avoid
The men from the mobs
Lament the destroyed
Distractions, denials
Built to deceive
Anything to sidestep
A reason to believe
