Lifeboat Lyrics - Running With Scissors - Janet Devlin

All the little pieces of my heart 

Flicker as they fall to the ground 

Perfectly askew just how I like 

But you don't need to carry a search light 

I can see them fine on my own 

Perfectly at one 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 

Even though my thoughts can be cloudy 

Silver lines are always in sight 

Perfectly unclear just how I like 

And I can guarantee me a sunrise 

Even in the darkest of the nights 

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 

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
