the girl who wanted to be god

• manic street preachers'ın everything must go albümündeki en etkileyici ada sahip olan şarkı. aslında şarkının kendisi de neredeyse adı kadar güzel sayılır.
  
  sözleri şu şekilde gider:
  "there are no sunsets just silence
  you could see that she was true and faithless
  but see through the future and forget all the lies
  black out the words for the blind have eyes
  
  i am the girl who wanted to be god
  i am the girl who wanted to be god
  
  there are times when you feel hopeless
  just for once for no-one else we are blameless
  the dawn is still breaking its heaven is so high
  she told the truth, told the truth and then she lied
  
  i am the girl who wanted to be god
  i am the girl who wanted to be god
  hold me she said love me to death
  i am the girl who wanted to be god
  i am the girl who wanted to be god"
• oradan mı esinlenilmiş bilmiyorum ama sylvia plath'in letters home kitabında da geçer aynı sözler: "i think i would like to call myself 'the girl who wanted to be god.' yet if i were not in this body, where would i be-perhaps i am destined to be classified and qualified. but, oh, i cry out against it. i am i- i am powerful-but to what extent? i am i...how awful to be anyone but i. i have a terrible egotism."
  
  şarkının en güzel yeri en sonda "hold me she said love me to death" kısmıdır bence.
