Yeh, the bit after is weird... not in the lyrics book or anything, completely freaked me out when it came on and I wasn't expecting it. I just presume it's something the Manic's have written on the end of it, as a kind of tribute to Richie... I can't make sense of much of the lyrics though, anyone able to post them here? |

It's jealousy "sows" rejection (according to lyrics book):P But otherwise, just a beautiful insight into Richie's twisted but wonderful mind to me... |

To me, I saw it as meaning the way doctors just give us a load of pills and think that everything's ok... meaning we go back home, do the cleaning and cooking and flower arranging and comply to the capitalist society we live in. Hence the way it "dissolves a kind of liberation". But of course, reading Tomos' reply... I'd guess it is about that. :P |

|
This to me means that we get all these different choices thrown at us, it's not right, why can't there be one easy option? Then all the different parties giving us different "facts", but hang on... there's only one truth surely? How can all these different things all be truth. May be a bit out with that, but that's how I read it. |

Beautifully written song. To me it's about Domestic Violence, "she thought burnt skin would please her lover, to keep love alive and lust aside." I.e. she'll take anything from him just so the love remains and the sexual side of it is put off. "The love she sought through faltering thought"... lovely line and shows that she's looking for this love that isn't even there. |

Love this song. Think it must be about the fact that we've got all this cross-breed testing and everything... and you kinda think what the hell is the point? Can't we leave things as we are? Why must we, as humans interfere with every natural thing on this planet... Very catchy song. |

I think it's brilliant that Nicky Wire sung it. Yes, he has a terrible voice! We all know that, but him and Richey were best friends... I think James should be given a lot of credit for the effort put into this album, then just steps aside and let Nicky sing the most personal song on the album. Beautiful song, I'm amazing Nicky got through it. |
