Lyrics
0:24Hold on hold on let me get the words out
0:29Before I burst
0:35There's no truth at all poking at the giant
0:40Eyes of ancient gods
0:47Cool heads have failed
0:50Now it's time for me to have my turn
0:59Kiss me kiss me
1:02Life is way too short to scream and shout
1:12Flashed up in my wildest dreams
1:15The dark red blood streams
1:18Stretching out like vast cracked ice
1:23The veins of you the veins
1:26Of me like great forest trees
1:30Pushing through and on and in
1:35Gliding like a satellite in the broken night
1:42And when I wake you're there I'm saved
1:47Your love is life piled tight
1:49And high set against the sky
1:53That seems to balance on its own
2:09Sing out sing out
2:12The silence only eats us from the inside up
2:21I meant no harm but
2:24I only get to say these words too late
2:33Wake up wake up
2:36Dreaming only leads to more and more nightmares
2:44Snap out of it you said it in a way that
2:49Showed you really cared
2:57Flashed up in my wildest
3:00Dreams the dark red blood streams
3:03Stretching out like vast cracked ice
3:09The veins of you the veins of me
3:12Like great forest trees
3:15Pushing through and on and in
3:21Gliding like a satellite in the broken night
3:27And when I wake you're there I'm saved
3:32Your love is life piled tight
3:34And high set against the sky
3:39That seems to balance on its own
3:42Send your lifeboats out for me
3:47Send your lifeboat out
3:54Send your lifeboats out for me
3:59Send your lifeboat out
4:06Send your lifeboats out for me
4:10Send your lifeboat out
4:17Send your lifeboats out for me
4:22Send your lifeboat out
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 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 vast cracked ice The veins of you the veins Of me like great 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 way that Showed you really cared Flashed up in my wildest Dreams the dark red blood streams Stretching out like vast cracked ice The veins of you the veins of me Like great 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 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
