lifeline

I finished writing lifeline on the 9th of April 2020. This was just after a rather dark time when I had gone through significant life changes, during which I realised a lot about who I am as a person. This is one of my favourite songs, and although I was in a dark place at the time of writing this, hearing back on it now brings me peace, knowing I’m out of what I was once trapped in.

lyrics

[Verse 1]
Show me some hope
it hurts as I twist and turn
Give me a miracle
Bring me to your warmth

[Verse 2]
How did we fall apart
I didn’t mean to bruise your heart
I see a fading sky
I wish you’d never said goodbye

You used to heal my scars
And now I’m lost in the dark
Another sleepless night
As life pulls me in its rough tides

[Chorus]
And as the dreams unfold
And cast a spell
Through all the storms you kept me afloat

And I hope we come home
Our fates untold
And together we’ll grow old

I need healing
Give me my lifeline
Together
We’ll fall into the light
