Days Without Paracetamol

Snow Patrol · Songs For Polarbears [1998]

when summer falls asleep

and winter plucks your strings

the colder that you get

makes you feel at home



build it up, tear it down, throw it out



if i come round there now

would you be pleased to see me

i wouldn't make much noise

just whimper to myself



build it up, tear it down, throw it out



my head hurts more each time

the drinking strangles me

believe in god, like hell!

believe in hell, by god!

15 minutes old (for joseph farris)



i'm good for inspiration aren't i - you will find

well close the door and i'll go anywhere you take me to

from this bed onto so much more - care for you i will



can I have a picture of you tonight

keep it with me always in my mind



touch me cause i can't move - i can barely breathe

speechless, breathless i can't tell you if i'm here or not

running both legs tied together arms in the air - care for you i will



can i have a picture of you tonight

keep it with me always in my mind
