I Can Hardly Speak, I Understand...

Ever so often you get that one song you've not listened to in ages coming back to haunt you in all its harmonic and lyrical bliss. I had this song pop up in my iPod playlist and it flooded back so many memories in a heartbeat. this is really one song that can apply to every facet of your life whatever you may go through; a lost love, breaking up with someone, breaking up with someone who never knew you loved him or her. so light up, as if you have a choice.

- 'Run' by Snow Patrol

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
Away 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
Makes it so hard not to cry
And as we say our long goodbye
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.
