[00:00.00]Snow Patrol - The President
[00:32.86]
[00:34.86]I've run to ground
[00:39.19]I've run from everyone that I have ever known
[00:50.32]I'm aching cold
[00:54.75]I'm aching from the bones the very blood of me
[01:02.21]
[01:05.66]And it's broke before you know it
[01:10.00]Before you knew what it was for
[01:14.75]All you know is you can't fix it
[01:19.17]And you wish you'd listened more
[01:23.54]To your instincts to your family
[01:27.94]To the wisdom you'd ignored
[01:32.52]Are you finally gonna ask us for help?
[01:38.41]
[01:41.46]I've crashed to earth
[01:45.63]But I'd fallen for so long that it was just relief
[01:57.02]I saw your face
[02:01.51]In everyone that looked me in my drunken eyes
[02:09.51]
[02:12.32]And it's broke before you know it
[02:16.74]Before you knew what it was for
[02:21.44]All you know is you can't fix it
[02:25.86]And you wish you'd listened more
[02:30.15]To your instincts to your family
[02:34.71]To the wisdom you'd ignored
[02:39.16]When you finally gonna ask us for help?
[02:44.28]
[02:47.88]I can see you at the front gate
[02:52.52]As you wait on my return
[02:57.04]The years have blurred to eons
[03:01.18]But the tears have never dried
[03:05.60]But I'm not coming to you like this
[03:10.40]So battered down and sad
[03:14.52]I will take the road forgotten again
[03:20.13]
[03:41.22]
[04:32.63]End
