Wild Horses Lyrics - Snow Patrol

[Verse 1] 

You wanted it too late 

You wanted it too late now 

I can't keep track of all your tears 

You're crying rivers way too long 

I'm tired of loneliness 

And way more tired of wasted time 

As I'm still, you barely look alive 

These sharks will do so much good 

[Pre-Chorus] 

Just keep your wits about you, don't let it end you 

And summon everything you've held up in reserve 

Don't fall for every single stolen glance and wink 

Try to keep your heart on higher shelves once

[Chorus] 

What are you holding back? 

I know you've wild horses on the inside of you 

(Stop holding back) 

Now slip the tattoo on 

Serenity, it scorns your every move 

(Stop holding back) 

I pick you up [?] 

And no you don't have time without it 

(Stop holding back) 

I know I don't know much 

But I do know when to preach 

(Stop holding back) 

[Verse 2] 

You wanted it to work 

You wanted it to work so much 

But it's been broken in your hands 

The minute that it found your hands 

You're trying not to blink 

And what you wanna see what is 

It hasn't finished you 

It's only that it feels that way 

[Pre-Chorus] 

Just keep your wits about you, don't let it end you 

And summon everything you've held up in reserve 

Don't fall for every single stolen glance and wink 

Try to keep your heart on higher shelves once 

[Chorus] 

What are you holding back 

I know you've wild horses on the inside of you 

(Stop holding back) 

Now slip the tattoo on 

Serenity, it scorns your every move 

(Stop holding back) 

I pick you up [?] 

And no you don't have time without it 

(Stop holding back) 

I know I don't know much 

But I do know when to preach 

(Stop holding back) 

(Don't hold back) 

(Don't hold back) 

(Don't hold back) 

(Don't hold back) 

(Don't hold back) 

(Don't hold back) 

(Don't hold back) [?] wide awake 

(Don't hold back) [?] wide awake 

(Don't hold back) [?] wide awake 

(Stop holding back) 

(Don't hold back) [?] wide awake 

(Don't hold back) [?] wide awake 

(Don't hold back) [?] wide awake 

(Stop holding back)
