I don't want my children to grow up like me

It's just so destroying, it's a mocking disease

A wasting disease

I don't want my children to grow up like me

It's just so destroying, it's a mocking disease

A wasting disease

Some times I wake up with love still alive

I just want to go to sleep, but I can't, I close my eyes

I can't, I close my eyes

[Chorus]

I can't fight this war any more

Time to surrender, time to move on

So line up the firing squads, kiss goodbye to what you want

Go with the flow, go home

You can keep on struggling when you're alone

When you're alone

This sullen welsh heart

It won't leave, it won't give up

The hating half of me

Has won the battle easily

[Lucy rose]

This sullen welsh heart

It won't leave, it won't give up

The hating half of me

Has won the battle easily

The battle easily

The act of creation saves us from despair

A phrase that keeps repeating in my head

In my head

It's not enough to succeed others must fail

My unhappy mantra I wish I could escape

I wish I could escape

[Chorus]

[Lucy rose]

This sullen welsh heart

It won't leave, it won't give up

The hating half of me

Has won the battle easily

The battle easily

This sullen welsh heart

It won't leave, it won't give up

The hating half of me

Has won the battle easily

The battle easily

[Lucy rose]

This sullen welsh heart

It won't leave, it won't give up

The hating half of me

Has won the battle easily

The battle easily
