Clarion Lyrics - Red - Guillemots

All the notebooks in the world 

Can never hold the lives I hold 

But I've gotta make them real 

It's like covering a bird in solid steel 

All of these thoughts that I conceal 

Through silence 

All the hearts in this red world 

Can never hold the love I hold 

But I'm throwing it away 

It's like swimming in oceans made of clay 

Swimming in circles 'round the bay 

So blindly 

Well, feed me out to the lions 

My heart's a liar 

Feed me out to the lions 

Well, I make excuses pass the buck 

I play the crowd but it's down to me not luck 

When the lights are on 

The dreaming clouds they're living in 

They try to hide their master fear 

But their tears they catch on fire 

And as they drop they dance with my desire 

Don't think a plane could get much higher 

(Plane could get much higher) 

Higher than I do 

Just on imagination, just on hope 

Just on the thought 

That you will someday have a face 

Give me a beat and real sound 

Maybe some feet on this cold ground 

To find you 

Well, feed me out to the lions 

If I say this one more time 

Feed me out to the lions 

I beg, I hope, I wish, I pray 

But that's not gonna send me on my way 

When the lights come on
