Snow Patrol - The Finish Line lyrics

The Earth is warm next to my ear
Insect noise is all that I hear
A magic trick makes the world disappear
The skies are dark
They're dark but they're clear

A distant motorcade and suddenly there's joy
The snowin' ticker tape blurs
All my senses numb it's like the finish line
Where everything just ends
The crack of radio seems
Close enough to touch

Cold water, cleaning my wounds
A sad parade, with a single balloon
I'm done with this, I'm countin' to ten
Bluest seas, runnin' to them

I feel like I am
Watchin' everything from space
And in a minute I'll hear


My name and I'll wake
I think the finish line's a
Good place we could start
Take a deep breath
Take in all that you could want
