Lifeboats Lyrics & Chords By Snow Patrol

Hold on, hold on
Let me get the words out
Before I burst
There's no truth at all
Poking out the child's eyes
Of ancient gods
Cool heads 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
The dark red blood streams
Stretching out like crossed red lights
The veins of you, the veins of me
Like great forest trees
Fishing through and on away
Land like a satellite
In the broken night
Then I'll wake you there and say
Love is light while outside
And hide, set against the sky
It seems the balance always own
Sing out, sing out
The silence only eats us
From the inside up
I meant no harm
But I only get to sing
These words too late
Wake up, wake up
Dreaming only leads
To more nightmares
Snap out of it
You're sitting in a way
That showed you really care
Flashed up in my wildest dreams
The dark red blood streams
Stretching out like crossed red lights
The veins of you, the veins of me
Like great forest trees
Fishing through and on away
Land like a satellite
In the broken night
Then I'll wake you there and say
Love is light while outside
And hide, set against the sky
It seems the balance always own
Send your lifeboats
Out for me
Send your lifeboat out
Send your lifeboats
Out for me
Send your lifeboat out
Send your lifeboats
Out for me
Send your lifeboat out
Send your lifeboats
Out for me
Send your lifeboat out
