If I lay here
Snow Patrol
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me
And just forget the world
I watch the fallen blow like leaves
Killed for the sake of something they believe
And society manipulates
And makes you think that dates
Are the only measure of your success
Not a man til you watch a woman undress
But they’re lying in the aisles
And there are no styles
That can save you from that state of mind
A generation left behind
By the ruthless search for progress
You think you’re a “loser” but I confess
You have always been king in my eyes
But more, a love that never dies
And you take the knife
Take my hand, take a wife
It’s all in the possession
And my confession
Turns around on me
As you resolve to let me be free
When I just want your arms around me, tight
But are you alright
And you doubt my sanity
“Coz who would love the worst of me”
I see the man I adore
Lying on the floor
And my eyes tear up
Don’t you know you’re everything to me, love
