Hope there’s someone/anyone, could share the Editors’ lyrical brilliance

“I can’t shake this feeling I’ve got
My dirty hands, have I been in the wars?
The saddest thing that I’d ever seen
Were smokers outside the hospital doors.”
(Smokers outside the hospital doors)

We’ve all been changed
From what we were
Our broken parts
Left smashed off the floor

(Smokers outside the hospital doors)

“You came on your own,
And that’s how you’ll leave,
With hope in your hands,
And air to breathe”
(An End has a start)

“Every little piece in your life
Will add up to one
Every little piece in your life
Will it mean something to someone?”
(The weight of the world)

“In the end all you can hope for
Is the love you felt to equal the pain you’ve gone through”
(Bones)

“How can you know what things are worth
If your hands wont move to do a days work? “
(When Anger Shows)

“Come on now
You knew you were lost
But you carried on anyway”
(A Racing Rat)

“When you fall and you can’t find your way
Push your hand up to the sky
I will run just to, to be by your side
Don’t you ever bat an eye”
(Push you hand towards the air)

“Look up
Through the trees to feel as small as you can
You hear the clocks
Counting down
The night are longer now than ever before
But now you see
The lights from the town”
(Escape the Nest)

“There’s spiders in your room
But there always will be
There’s people to be fooled
And there always has been
Hold out your hand
Hold out your hand
Or we’ll carry you
Hold out your hand
Hold out your hand
Come back to me “
(Spiders)

“Wake up my love
Today I heard some bad news
Just what are we all supposed to do?
I won’t let them get to you I don’t want to go out on my own anymore
I cant face the night like I used to before
I’m so sorry for the things that they’ve done
I’m so sorry about what we’ve all become”
(Well worn hands)
