Текст песни:

I′ll sing it one last time for you
Then we really have to go
You′ve been the only thing that′s right
In all I′ve done.

And I can barely look at you
But every single time I do
I know we′ll make it anywhere
Anywhere from here

Light up, Light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I′ll be right beside you dear

Louder, louder
And we′ll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can′t raise your voice to say

To think I might not see those eyes
It makes it so hard not to cry
And as we say our long goodbyes
I nearly do.

Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I′ll be right beside you dear

Louder, louder
And we′ll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can′t raise your voice to say

Slower, slower
We don′t have time for that
All I want is to find an easier way
To get out of our little heads

Have heart my dear
We′re bound to be afraid
Even if it′s just for a few days
Making up for all this mess.

Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I′ll be right beside you dear.

Текст песни:

Take back the city for yourself tonight
Or I’ll take back the city for me
Take back the city for yourself tonight
Whoa

God knows you put your life in two a times
And it’s both cradled you and crushed
But now it’s time to make your own demands
Whoa

All these years later and it’s killing me
Your broken records and words
Ten thousand craters where it all should be
Whoa

No need to put your words into my mouth
Don’t need convincing at all
I love this place enough to have no doubt
Whoa

It’s a mess
It’s a start
It’s a flawed work of art
Your city, your call
Every crack, every wall
Pick a side, pick a fight
Get your epitaph right
You can sing ‘til you drop
Cause the fun just never stops

I love this city tonight
I love this city always
It bears it’s teeth like a light
And spits me out after days
But we’re all gluttons for it
We know what’s wrong and it’s right
For every time it’s been hit
Take back the city tonight

Tell me you never wanted more from this
And I will stop talking now
One perfect partner, one eternal kiss
Whoa

Take back the city for yourself tonight
Or I’ll take back the city for me
Take back the city for yourself tonight
Whoa

It’s a mess
It’s a start
It’s a flawed work of art
Your city, your call
Every crack, every wall
Pick a side, pick a fight
Get your epitaph right
You can sing ‘til you drop
Cause the fun just never stops

I love this city tonight
I love this city always
It bears it’s teeth like a light
And spits me out after days
But we’re all gluttons for it
We know what’s wrong and it’s right
For every time it’s been hit
Take back the city tonight

I love this city tonight
I love this city always
It bears it’s teeth like a light
And spits me out after days
But we’re all gluttons for it
We know what’s wrong and it’s right
For every time it’s been hit
Take back the city tonight

I love this city tonight
I love this city always
I love this city tonight
I love this city always

Текст песни:

Don′t be scared of anything at all

Everything we have is all we need

All the spotlights streaming into angry skies

Means there′s no one watching as we leave

Say the first thing that

Comes into your mind when you see me

If it looks like it works and it feels like it works

Then it works

With the sun on your face

All these worries will soon disappear

Just follow me now

I find careful patterns in the snow

It seems you did come round but changed your mind

If you′d just take ten more steps to me

I won′t ever ask you again

Just because I couldn′t say doesn′t make me a liar

I noticed a change in the tone of your voice

It′s so clear

My role in this mess

Is not something that I can be proud of

But it′s all going to change

@ Snow Patrol

Текст песни:

Tell me that you want to dance
I want to feel your pulse on mine
Just treat me like a stolen glance
To yourself

A dark shape on a golden floor
A sleeping planet with a molten core
From above we′d cut a slow eight shape
And much more

I′m a peasant in your princess arms
Penniless with only charm
As we′re leveled by the low, hot lights
And disarmed

I′m not afraid of anything even time
It′ll eke away at everything but we′ll be fine

I′m folded in the bread you made
You′re cold until my body bathes
You in the heat I kept aside
All these days

I′m not afraid of anything even time
It′ll eke away at everything but we′ll be fine

@ Snow Patrol

Текст песни:

Sworn to secrecy I might go after school
She was an angel I saw her swimming there
I am in such a mess I can′t cope without this
She just teases me pretends she can′t see me here

So let me go out there
I can breathe fresh air
Stay with you all night
Just let me love you
Just for a while want to
Be with you all night
Be with you all night

Until I fall asleep
Just let me be here
I won′t tell anyone

Don′t want to wake up

The blind lead the blind so why can′t I find my way
This could be heaven but I don′t know where I am
I am too scared to come out from behind here
My body is aching it feels like it′s wearing me

@ Snow Patrol

Текст песни:

[I - What If This Storm Ends?]

What if this storm ends?
And I don′t see you
As you are now
Ever again

The perfect halo
Of gold hair and lightning
Sets you off against
The planet′s last dance

Just for a minute
The silver forked sky
Lit you up like a star
That I will follow

Now it′s found us
Like I have found you
I don′t want to run
Just overwhelm me

What if this storm ends?
And leaves us nothing
Except a memory
A distant echo

I want pinned down
I want unsettled
Rattle cage after cage
Until my blood boils

I want to see you
As you are now
Every single day
That I am living

Painted in flames
All peeling thunder
Be the lightning in me
That strikes relentless

[II - The Sunlight Through The Flags]

From here the caravans are kids toys
And I can hold them all in my palm
I watch the sea creep round the corner
It connects the dots from here to you
The sunlight burning through the loose flags
Painted high on white church walls
I chase my blood from brain to thumped heart
Until I′m out of breath for trying

Worry not everything is sound
This is the safest place you′ve found
The only noise beating out is ours
Lacing our tea from honey jars

These accidents of faith and nature
They tend to stick in the spokes of you
But every now and then the trend bucks
And you′re repaired by more than glue

Worry not everything is sound
This is the safest place you′ve found
The only noise beating out is ours
Lacing our tea from honey jars

Why don′t you rest your fragile bones
A minute ago you looked alone
Stop waving your arms you′re safe and dry
Breathe in and drink up the winter sky

[III - Daybreak]

Slowly the day breaks apart in our hands
And soft hallelujahs flow in from the church
The one on the corner you said frightened you
It was too dark and too large to find your soul in

Something was bound to go right sometime today
All these broken pieces fit together to make a perfect picture of us
It got cold and then dark so suddenly and rained
It rained so hard the two of us were the only thing
That we could see for miles and miles

And in the middle of the flood I felt my worth
When you held onto me like I was your little life raft
Please know that you were mine as well
Drops of water hit the ground like God′s own tears
And spread out into shapes like
Salad bowls and basins and buckets for bailing out the flood

As motionless cars rust on driveways and curbs
You take off your raincoat and stretch out your arms
We both laugh out loud and surrender to it
The sheer force of sky and the cold magnet Earth

@ Snow Patrol

Текст песни:

This could be the very minute
I′m aware I′m alive
All these places feel like home

With a name I′d never chosen
I can make my first steps
As a child of 25

This is the straw, final straw in the
Roof of my mouth as I lie to you
Just because I′m sorry doesn′t mean
I didn′t enjoy it at the time

You′re the only thing that I love
It scares me more every day
On my knees I think clearer

Goodness I saw it coming
Or at least I′ll claim I did
But in truth I′m lost for words

What have I done it′s too late for that
What have become truth is nothing yet
A simple mistake starts the hardest time
I promise I′ll do anything you ask...this time

@ Snow Patrol

Текст песни:

The winters mar the Earth
It′s floor was frozen glass
You slip into my arms
And you quickly correct yourself
Your freezing speech bubbles
Seem to hold your words aloft
I want the smoky clouds of laughter
To swim about me forever more

I will race you to the waterside
And from the edge of Ireland shout out loud
So they could hear it in America
It′s all for you

The shells crack under our shoes
Like punctuation points
The planets bend between us
A hundred million suns and stars
The sea filled in this silence
Before you sank those words
And now even in the darkness
I can see how happy you are

I will race you to the waterside
And from the edge of Ireland shout out loud
So they could hear it in a America
It′s all for you

It′s all for you [x5]

@ Snow Patrol

Текст песни:

You cool your bedwarm hands down
On the broken radiator

When you lay them freezing on me
I mumble can you wake me later

But I don′t really want you to stop
And you know it so it doesn′t stop you

You run your hands from my neck
To my chest

Crack the shutters open wide
I want to bathe you in the light of day

And just watch you as the rays
Tangle around your face and body

I could sit here for hours
Finding new ways to be awed each minute

′Cause the daylight seems to want you
Just as much as I want you

Its been minutes Its been days,
I remember all I will remember

Happy lost in your hair
And the cold side of the pillow

Your hills and valleys
Are mapped by my intrepid fingers

And in a naked slumber
I dream all this again

@ Snow Patrol

Текст песни:

Oh velocity girl

What makes you go so fast

Is it the speed you′re taking

Since you gave up the drinking

Oh velocity girl

I can′t keep up with you

Can′t stand to be alone

Think you should be with me

Just want to stay here in your arms

Oh velocity girl

Try harder to stay put

Understand me when I say

Please don′t leave today

Oh velocity girl

I don′t know what I′m thinking

Since I gave up the drinking

Please just stay with me

Just want to stay here in your arms

Oh velocity girl

Can I though your hand

Can I move it here

Don′t you understand?

Just want to stay here in your arms

Just want to stay here in your arms

Just want to stay here in your arms

Just want to stay here in your arms

Текст песни:

A little after twelve
The function suite was full
Of people I had never seen before

Ripped up ticket stubs
Confettied on the floor
It dawned on me I′d seen it all before

Cool your beans my son
You look a fucking mess
No ones getting out of here tonight

Hit that button there
The one that just says wrong
We′ll lose our minds to all our favourite songs

Throw forward to later
you look light on your feet
When you whirled in the room
I was nailed to my seat

I′m like a prisoner
getting ready to talk
I feel the blood in my hands
and the threat in your walk

And suddenly
it lifts the roof off the place
It puts a vault in my step
And a grin on my face

It can′t contain me
but you′ll need an army
To get me back in my box
Or snap the branches off me

A little after four
The function suite is dead
And I am just a ripped up ticket stub

But heres a helping hand
A voice that′s far to close
And I am up and on my broken limbs

Throw forward to later
you look light on your feet
When you whirled in the room
I was nailed to my seat

I′m like a prisoner
getting ready to talk
I feel the blood in my hands
and the threat in your walk

And suddenly
it lifts the roof off the place
It puts a vault in my step
And a grin on my face

It can′t contain me
but you′ll need an army
To get me back in my box
Or snap the branches off me

And suddenly
it lifts the roof off the place
It puts a vault in my step
And a grin on my face

It can′t contain me
but you′ll need an army
To get me back in my box
Or snap the branches off me

Текст песни:

You could be happy and I won′t know
But you weren′t happy the day I watched you go

And all the things that I wished I had not said
Are played on lips ′till it′s madness in my head

Is it too late to remind you how we were
But not our last days of silence, screaming, blur

Most of what I remember makes me sure
I should have stopped you from walking out the door

You could be happy, I hope you are
You made me happier than I′d been by far

Somehow everything I own smells of you
And for the tiniest moment it′s all not true

Do the things that you always wanted to
Without me there to hold you back, don′t think, just do

More than anything I want to see you go
Take a glorious bite out of the whole world

@ Snow Patrol

Текст песни:

Only the faintest only the faintest glance buries you buries me
So fire your engine see if I give a damn we′ll be dust instantly
Caught in a jet stream caught in a gorgeous howl all the world lost in noise
Use me forever use as rocket fuel I′ll be air I′ll be fire

You say you love me like the silence of the turning earth
You say you love me like the endless roar of modern of life
You say you love me like the laughter and the kissed back tears
You say you love me like the past the now the coming years

What will you remember what will you think of me after I say goodbye
Returning in bodies, plants and the sand you′ll squeeze between shoeless feet

I know I love you like the silvered gold of dying days
I know I love you like an ancient history brought to life
I know I love you like the sunlit water on your skin
I know I love you like the million times I never said

I know you love me like the silence of the turning earth
I know you love me like the endless roar of modern of life
I know you love me like the laughter and the kissed back tears
I know you love me like the past the now the coming years

@ Snow Patrol

Текст песни:

Please don′t go crazy if I tell you the truth
No, you don′t know what happened and you never will
If you don′t listen to me while I talk to the wall
This blanket is freezing it′s been out in the hall
Where you′ve had me for hours til I′m sure what I want
But darling I want the same thing that I wanted before
So sweetheart tell me what′s up I won′t stop. No way.

Please keep your hands and stop raising your voice
It′s hardly what I′d be doing if you gave me the choice
It′s a simple suggestion, won′t you give me some time?
So just say yes or no, why can′t you shoulder the blame?
Cuz both my shoulders are heavy from the weight of us both
You′re a big boy now so let′s not talk about growth
You′ve not heard a single word I have said. Oh my God.

Please take it easy it can′t all be my fault
I haven′t made half the mistakes that you′ve listed so far
Baby, let me explain something, it′s all down to drugs.
At least I remember taking them and not alot else.
It′s seems I′ve stepped over lines you′ve drawn again and again
But if the ecstacy′s in, the rest is definately out
Doctor Jeckyll is wresting Hyde, for my pride.

Текст песни:

Two weeks late like a surplus reprieve
I found a hair the length of yours on my sleeve
I wound it round and round my finger so tight
It turned to purple and a pulse formed inside

And I knew the beat since it matched your own beat
I still remember it from our chest to chest and feet to feet
The easy silence then was a sweet relief to this hush
Of ovens, aeroplanes and distant car horns

A fire a fire, you can only take what you can carry
A pulse your pulse, it′s the only thing I can remember
I break you don′t, I was always set to self destruct though
The fire the fire, it cracks and barks like primal music

I said I knew the beat ′cause it matched your own beat
It′s become my engine my own source of heat
The sea between us only amplifies the sound waves
Every hum and echo and crash paints my cave.

@ Snow Patrol

Текст песни:

I want something
That′s purer than the water
Like we were

It′s not there now
Ineloquence and anger
Are all we have

Like Saturn′s rings
An icy loop around me
Too hard to hold

Lash out first
At all the things we don′t like
Or understand

And it′s beginning to get to me
That I know more of the stars and sea
Than I do of what′s in your head
Barely touching in our cold bed

Are you beginning to get get my point
They′re always fighting with aching joints
It′s doing nothing but tire us out
No one knows what this fight′s about

The answer phone
The lonely sound of your voice
Frozen in time

I only need
The compass that you gave me
To guide me on

And it′s beginning to get to me
That I know more of the stars and sea
Than I do of what′s in your head
Barely touching in our cold bed

Are you beginning to get get my point
They′re always fighting with aching joints
It′s doing nothing but tire us out
No one knows what this fight′s about

It′s so thrilling but also wrong
Don′t have to prove that you are so strong
Cos I can carry you on my back
After our enemies attack

I tried to tell you before I left
But I was screaming under my breath
You are the only thing that makes sense
Just ignore all this present tense

We need to feel breathless with love
And not collapse under its weight
I′m gasping for the air to fill
My lungs with everything I′ve lost

We need to feel breathless with love
And not collapse under its weight
I′m gasping for the air to fill
My lungs with everything I′ve lost
