Lifeboats
Snow Patrol Song Lyrics

Hold on, hold on, let me get the words out before I burst

There's no truth at all, poking at the giant eyes of ancient gods

Cool hats have failed, now it's time for me to have my turn

Kiss me, kiss me, life is way too short to scream and shout

Flashed up in my wildest dreams, like red blood streams, stretch up like vast skies

The veins of you, the veins of me, like gold forest trees

Pushing through and on and in

Gliding like a satellite in the broken night

And when I wake you're there I'm saved

Your love is life piled tight and high set against the sky

That seems to balance on its own

Sing out sing out the silence only eats us from the inside up

I meant no harm but I only get to say these words too late

Wake up wake up dreaming only leads to more and more nightmares

Snap out of it you said it in a wy that showed you really cared.
