Life And Death - Snow Patrol

The first snow

The first winter of my life

I was told it was the height of me

The first dance

Well, the first one that counted

Felt like my blood was built from crackling lights

All this ancient wildness

That we don’t understand

The first sound of a heartbeat

To riots roaring on

This is not the love you’ve’ve had before

This is something else

This is something else

This is not the same as other days

This is something else

This is something else

It shouldn’t need to be so fucking hard

This is life on earth

It’s just life on earth

It doesn’t need to be the end of you, or me

This is life on earth

It’s just life on earth

The first light

First light on the silent shore

Just the ships that anchor me and you

The way home

This is always the way home

So you can rip that map to shreds, my dear

But all we ever wanted

Seemed miles and miles from here

And the first days in a strange new land

Awaken beasts in us

This is not the love you’ve’ve had before

This is something else

This is something else

This is not the same as other days

This is something else

This is something else

It shouldn’t need to be so fucking hard

This is life on earth

It’s just life on earth

It doesn’t need to be the end of you, or me

This is life on earth

It’s just life on earth

It shouldn’t need to be so fucking hard

This is life on earth

It’s just life on earth

It doesn’t need to be the end of you, or me

This is life on earth

It’s just life on earth
