This is the 11th track of the Manic Street Preachers, of their album “The Holy Bible”
Written primarily by Richie Edwards (Which he wrote around 70-80% of the album around the time), many of the songs in the album dealt with the self-harm Richie was doing to himself at that time.
From what it seem...
[Intro]
[Howls]
[Verse 1]
Scratch my leg with a rusty nail, sadly it heals
Colour my hair but the dye grows out
I can't seem to stay a fixed ideal
Childhood pictures redeem, clean and so serene
See myself without ruining lines
Whole days throwing sticks into streams
[Chorus]
I have crawled so far sideways
I recognise dim traces of creation
I wanna die, die in the summertime
I wanna die
[Verse 2]
The hole in my life even stains the soil
My heart shrinks to barely a pulse
A tiny animal curled into a quarter circle
If you really care, wash the feet of a beggar
[Chorus]
I have crawled so far sideways
I recognise dim traces of creation
I wanna die, die in the summertime
I wanna die
[Guitar solo]
I have crawled so far sideways
I recognise dim traces of creation
I wanna die, die in the summertime
I wanna die
Die in the Summertime was written by Richey Edwards & Nicky Wire & James Dean Bradfield & Sean Moore.
