Lifeboats

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 far 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.
