And so on...

Verse 1

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.

Chorus

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 it's own

Verse 2

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.

Chorus

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 it's own

Outro

Send your lifeboats out for me

Send your lifeboat out
