Caldey - Manic Street Preachers

So you tell me man is an island

Stuck between sanity and asylum

When the words you use won't work or fit

They just hang around and always miss

Retrace your steps again and again

Your strength and virtue now coming to an end

This purgatory this constant battle

Pack your bags wave goodbye to struggle

If the isolation destroys the worry

If silence stops you saying sorry

If the rain comes down and drowns the anxiety

I'm giving up I'm sailing to Caldey

Show me some patience give me some knowledge

Show me what saves us give me some courage

If I could end with the grace of Leonard Cohen

Then Caldey is the place I can hear it calling

So retrace your steps again

Your strength and virtue now coming to an end

This purgatory this constant battle

Pack your bags wave goodbye to struggle

If the isolation destroys the worry

If silence stops you saying sorry

If the rain comes down and drowns the anxiety

I'm giving up I'm sailing to Caldey

If the isolation

If silence

If the rain comes down

I'm giving up I'm sailing to Caldey
