    dont know if this is in the right place please move it if not;)
    me and my friend wer having a debate about which snow patrol song is better Run or how to be dead.Now there both good songs so im going to ask you the public to decide:rolleyes: I am because i know public has never been wrong except in X factor general elections etc:D But shur wel live in hope:p
    Anyway heres the lyrics in case some of yez dont know the song or forgots:eek:

    Artist: Snow Patrol
    Song: Run

    I'll sing it one last time for you
    Then we really have to go
    You've been the only thing that's right
    In all I've done

    And I can barely look at you
    But every single time I do
    I know we'll make it any where
    Away from here

    Light up, light up
    As if you have a choice
    Even if you can not hear my voice
    I'll be right beside you dear

    Louder, Louder
    And we'll run for our lives
    I can hardly speak I understand
    Why you can't raise your voice to say

    To think i might not see those eyes
    Makes it so hard not to cry
    And as we say our long goodbyes
    I nearly do

    Light up, light up
    As if you have a choice
    Even if you can not hear my voice
    I'll be right beside you dear

    Louder, Louder
    And we'll run for our lives
    I can hardly speak I understand
    Why you can't raise your voice to say

    Slower, slower
    We don't have time for that
    All I want's to find an easier way
    To get out of our little heads

    Have heart, my dear
    We're bound to be afraid
    Even if its just for a few days
    Making up for all this mess

    Light up, light up
    As if you have a choice
    Even if you can not hear my voice
    I'll be right beside you dear
    How to be dead.
    Please don't go crazy, if I tell you the truth
    No you don't know what happened
    And you never will if
    You don't listen to me while I talk to the wall
    This blanket is freezing, it's been out in the hall
    Where you've had me for hours
    Till I'm sure what I want
    But darling I want the same thing that I wanted before
    So sweetheart tell me what's up I won't stop no way

    Please keep your hands down
    And stop raising your voice
    It's hardly what I'd be doing if you gave me a choice
    It's a simple suggestion can you give me sometime
    So just say yes or no
    Why can't you shoulder the blame
    Coz both my shoulders are heavy
    From the weight of us both
    You're a big boy now so let's not talk about growth
    You've not heard a single word I have said...
    Oh, my God

    Please take it easy it can't all be my fault
    I haven't made half the mistakes
    That you've listed so far
    Oh baby let me explain something
    It's all down to drugs
    At least I remember taking the and not a lot else
    It seems I've stepped over lines
    You've drawn again and again
    But if the ecstacy's in the wit is definitely out
    Dr. Jekyll is wrestling Hyde for my pride
    You decide;)

    Hard choice love both songs, but how to be dead just has an edge

    Run. Remember loving it the first time I heard it.

    its fairly close why did i put that dont listen to snow patrol option in there :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,854 ✭✭✭Sinfonia


    dont really like snow patrol very much but i know both songs and Run is far better imo


  • Registered Users Posts: 27,340 ✭✭✭✭super_furry


    Run slightly. However Snow Patrol were much better on their first two albums, before they turned into another Coldplay tribute band.

    nice song and eveything but get over it, that was 2 years ago!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,205 ✭✭✭wba88


    Extremely close but will have to go for how to be dead


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,309 ✭✭✭✭Bard


    Run, for me. Like 'Chasing Cars' too. Not a fan, though.

    They're both epic but I chose How To Be Dead because it has a nice, sweet aura about it.

    Run, but it makes me rather sad.

    How To Be Dead.

    Much more original song, better lyrics.

    Any britrock/indie band can throw out a song like Run, fantastically catchy though it surely is.
