roses in the hospital

• gold against the soul albümünden bir manics şarkısı...
  
  "roses in the hospital
  try to pull my fingernails out
  roses in the hospital
  i want to cling to something soft
  roses in the hospital
  progressing like a constant war
  roses in the hospital
  there's no one to feel ashamed for
  
  all we wanted was a home
  now we are so strung out we wanna own
  like a leaf in the autumn breeze
  like a flood in january
  we don't want your fucking love
  
  roses in the hospital
  stub cigarettes out on my arm
  roses in the hospital
  want to feel something of value
  roses in the hospital
  nothing really makes me happy
  roses in the hospital
  heroin is just too trendy
  
  all we wanted was a home
  now we are so strung out we wanna own
  like a leaf in the autumn breeze
  like a flood in january
  we don't want your fucking love
  
  roses in the hospital
  this century achieved so much
  roses in the hospital
  to make a voice no voice at all
  roses in the hospital
  flowers cannot express the loss
  roses in the hospital
  torn reflections of burnt out trash
  of burnt out trash
  
  forever ever delayed
  forever ever delayed
  forever forever
  
  forever ever delayed
  (indepencence is a game)
  forever ever delayed
  (credibility, i'm yawning)
  forever forever
  (rudi rudi rudi rudi rudi rudi rudi rudi gonna fail)
  
  forever ever delayed
  forever delayed
  forever forever
  forever delayed
  (the west scratches onto my skin)
  forever delayed
  (contagious like a suntan)
  we never felt any sun, any sun
  rudi rudi rudi gonna fail^*"
• sözleri en şahane the manics şarkılarından biri. richey james zamanlarında şarkı sözleri hep çok karmaşık olmasına rağmen bu kadar sade, anlaşılır, derdini doğrudan anlatan sözlere sahip eser. sözler, richey tarafından hastanede yatarken yazılmıştır.
• greatest hits albümlerinin adi "forever delayed" parça içinde bolca geçmesine ragmen, track-list'inde bu güzeller güzeli manics nesnesine yer verilmemesi ne kötüdür.
• fena halde bowie'nin sound and vision'ını çağrıştırmakta olan manics şarkısı diyecektim ki:
  
  google çakınca da bowie'nin sound and vision'ıyla queen'in radio ga ga'sına benziyor demiş otoriteler...
