Manics' Lyrics You Can't Find
Today as I was searching for the lyrics of a few b-sides that sounded pleasant to sing along to, I was surprised I couldn't find any Slow Reflections / Strange Delays one. I typed in to the Google search bar various combinations, such as with "lyrics" included, excluded, the band name included, excluded, full name of the song, half of the name etc etc.... nothing?!
Is that song so obscure or so unpopular?! So, anyway, starting with my case of "Slow Reflections / Strange Delays", this post is dedicated to the lyrics of all of the Manics' songs that you can't find on the internet. I guess there are not many, but as I stumbled across this one, I thought there might be a few more. And hopefully here you can also post the lyrics of the mentioned songs, if you found them.

The man he moved so far into the west. He very nearly went and drowned himself. All the failure and all the ruins. Face to face with all your deceptions. Slow reflections and strange delays. So much to write but not much to say. Slow reflections and strange delays. Hopes in vain were never raised. You knew us better than we knew ourselves. And the truth it seems to hurt so much. In your body and in your very soul. You never ever really felt at home. Slow reflections and strange delays. So much to write but not much to say. Slow reflections and strange delays. Hopes in vain were never raised.
I speak James

I can't absolutely find the lyrics for "Vision Blurred". An official original version by The Horrors doesn't seem to exist, and the lyrics in the Manics cover are pretty intellegible. I'm not an English native speaker and I know that Manics are not the easiest band whose lyrics can be understood, but that song seems really impossible to understand for me.
Anyone?

Sorry to go off-topic but I have been a Manics fan for 15 years. I know everything about the band. I have been to gigs in different countries. I can play all the songs on guitar... and yet I still do not know the lyrics from the verses of From Despair to Where.
I just needed to admit that finally. |

I've poisoned every room in the house The place is quiet and so alone Pretend there's something worth waiting for There's nothing nice in my head The adult world took it all away I wake with the same spit in my mouth I can not tell if it's real or not I try to walk in a straight line(in the last one is a cripple walks in a straight line) An imitation of dignity From despair to where? From despair to where? Outside open mouthed crows(or crowds?) Pass each other as if they're drugged Down pale corridors of routine Where life falls unatoned The weak kick like straw 'Till the world means less and less Words are never enough Just cheap tarnished glitter Or atleast that's what I get on the studio version

James should get taken on by the CIA .... no need for codes and encryptions just sing it Mr Bradfield .... in place of Bletchley there'd be a Bradfield Park all hunched over compooters with headphones on scribbling his indecipherables

Anybody got any idea what the last verse of New Art Riot (In E Minor) is about, or any of the lyrics in the Born To End demo?

I can make out Can't get no girl to look at me at the start of the Born to End demo much of the rest seems to have ended up in their later version except for the bits I can't make out which I'd tell you only I can't make em out.
