Doves
"Lifelines"

I
Feels like a place I've never been
And I
Feels like a place I've never seen

Oh
Somebody's giving it but I'm not
Somebody's giving it but I'm not
Somebody's giving it a lot of time
Somebody threw you a lifeline

Somebody wakes to the sun in the sky
Others are living with hate in their eyes

Oh
The fires that you made and the earth that you walk
The ground beneath and the words that you talk
The fires that you own and the words that you talk
The ground beneath and the air that we walk
All gone

And yeah
Like pictures of the sun

And yeah
Just like sketches of the sun
The colours run

Somebody's giving it but I'm not
Somebody's giving up the whole lot
Somebody's giving it a long time
Somebody threw me a lifeline

Sometimes it's hard to see things straight
Trying to make sense of a single day
Sometimes you seem to spend your life trying
Well I'm just looking for my lifeline

Fires that you made and the earth that you walk
The ground beneath and the words that you talk
Fires that you own and the words that you talk
The ground beneath and the air that we walk
The air that we walk on
All gone

I
Feels like a place I've never been
