Chocolate
KITCHEN - Snow Patrol Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

This could be the very minute
I'm aware I'm alive
All these places feel like home

With a name I'd never chosen
I can make my first steps
As a child of twenty-five
This is the straw, final straw in the
Roof of my mouth as I lie to you
Just because I'm sorry doesn't mean
I didn't enjoy it at the time

You're the only thing that I love
Scares me more every day
On my knees I think clearer

Goodness knows I saw it coming
Or at least I'll claim I did
But in truth I'm lost for words

What have I done? It's too late for that
What have I become? Truth is nothing yet





A simple mistake starts the hardest time
I promise I'll do anything you ask, this time
