Lifeboat Letra

Janet Devlin

Running With Scissors

Letra de Lifeboat
All of the pieces are shattered on the ground
perfectly askew just how I like
I don’t need no glue, stitches or bandaids too
perfectly undone just how I like

Save your scissors
for they are rusty now
I don’t need a lighthouse
to try and show me how

I don’t need a lifeboat
I’m learning how to swim
It may look like I’m drowning
but I’m learning how to live
I don’t need your rescue
for I’m okay now
I can see the shoreline
so turn your lifeboat ‘round

"The thing about pain is it demands to be felt"
all wounds will heal just give it time
the sun will always shine it won’t forever be the night
perfectly on time just how I like

Save your scissors
for they are rusty now
I don’t need a lighthouse
to try and show me how

I don’t need a lifeboat
I’m learning how to swim
It may look like I’m drowning
but I’m learning how to live
I don’t need your rescue
for I’m okay now
I can see the shoreline
so turn your lifeboat ‘round
