Divine Youth
MANIC STREET PREACHERS · Futurology 2014 · Track 06 of 14
Written by James Dean Bradfield, Nicky Wire, Sean Moore
Arms around each other Fate falling in the distance Eyes with the look of yesterday
The weakest in the gang The last to feel alone No luck in your tender bones
And I sing to myself My civil wars within The victories and failures I daily lose and win
And money it just buys A new way to disguise A freedom you don't own anymore
Divine youth is lying in A battered and a bruised skin I wear but don't recognise
And I sing to myself My civil wars within The victories and failures I daily lose and win
The kids are growing old In a digital haze Is it evolution in the virtual age
And I sing to myself My civil wars within The victories and failures I daily lose and win
