The View from Stow Hill (Demo) - Manic Street Preachers

Written by：James Dean Bradfield/Nicky Wire/Sean Moore

How did this town get so old

The air I breathe feels so heavy and cold

Always caught in between the capital and the other country

Always caught in between the river and the valley

You can still see the bullet holes

You can still sense a little hope

Crushed dreams and the martyrs too

Silent ghostly still so confused

Look up to the skies avoid the casual litter

Running from the pitiful nihilism

The misguided tweets the sad Facebooking

Cheapness surrounds me but I'm not looking

Look up to the skies avoid the casual litter

Running from the pitiful nihilism

The misguided tweets the sad Facebooking

Cheapness surrounds me but I'm not looking
