You're All I Have
Embracing Light in Chaos: Snow Patrol's Ode to Love and Resilience
Lyrics
Strain this chaos turn it into light
Expressing the desire to transform chaos into something positive or meaningful.
I've got to see you one last night
Yearning to see someone for the last time before facing challenges symbolized by "lions."
Before the lions take their share
Anticipating challenges or difficulties represented by "lions" taking their share.
Leave us in pieces, scattered everywhere
Expecting to be left in a state of emotional disarray after facing challenges.
Just give me a chance to hold on
Requesting an opportunity to hold on emotionally, seeking stability.
Give me a chance to hold on
-Give me a chance to hold on
-Just give me something to hold onto
-It's so clear now that you are all that I have
Emphasizing that the person addressed is the sole source of support and comfort, overcoming fear.
I have no fear cos you are all that I have
-It's so clear now that you are all that I have
-I have no fear cos you are all that I have
-You're cinematic razor sharp
Describing the person in a powerful and comforting way, feeling at home and electrified in their presence.
A welcome arrow through the heart
-Under your skin feels like home
-Electric shocks on aching bones
-Give me a chance to hold on
Reiterating the request for emotional support, asking for something to hold onto.
Give me a chance to hold on
-Give me a chance to hold on
-Just give me something to hold onto
-It's so clear now that you are all that I have
Reaffirming the importance of the person, expressing confidence and fearlessness in their presence.
I have no fear cos you are all that I have
-It's so clear now that you are all that I have
-I have no fear cos you are all that I have
-There is a darkness deep in you
Acknowledging a perceived darkness within the person but finding a captivating quality in it.
A frightening magic I cling to
-Give me a chance to hold on
Continuing to seek emotional support, asking for something to hold onto despite acknowledging complexities.
Give me a chance to hold on
-Give me a chance to hold on
-Just give me something to hold onto
-It's so clear now that you are all that I have
Stressing the significance of the person as the only source of comfort, no longer fearing challenges.
I have no fear now you are all that I have
-It's so clear now that you are all that I have
-I have no fear now you are all that I have
