La Tristesse Durera (Scream To A Sigh) – Live at the Astoria, December 1994 lyrics by Manic Street Preachers

Instrumental Intro

Verse 1
Life has been unfaithful
And it all promised so, so much
I am a relic
I am just a petrified cry

Pre-Chorus
Wheeled out once a year
A cenotaph souvenir
The applause nails down my silence

Chorus
La Tristesse Durera
Scream to a sigh, to a sigh
La Tristesse Durera
Scream to a sigh, to a sigh

Instrumental Interlude

Verse 2
I see liberals
I am just a fashion accessory
People send their postcards
And they all hope I’m feeling well

Pre-Chorus
I retreat into self-pity
Where they patronise my misery

Chorus
La Tristesse Durera
Scream to a sigh, to a sigh
La Tristesse Durera
Scream to a sigh, to a sigh
1,2,3!

Instrumental Bridge/ Guitar solo

Chorus
La Tristesse Durera
Scream to a sigh, to a sigh
La Tristesse Durera
Scream to a sigh, to a sigh

Chorus Variation/Outro
I sold my medal, it paid a bill
It sells in market stalls, Parades, Milan catwalks
On, the sadness will never go
Will never go away
Baby, its here to stay
La Tristesse Durera
Scream to sigh (i-i-igh)
To sigh (i-i-igh)
