Meltdown

My best friend my lover
Sleeping on my chest
Dreaming of sunsets
Somewhere, that salty sea air

My east coast brother
He's shining in the sun
Studying the stars
With a big heart and kick drums

My Irish mother, she's beautiful and true
She said "son you can be anything you wanna be its up to you"

My east end father
Street wise and tough as nails
And they say in his day he stung like Sugar Ray
Stung like sugar ray stung like

And you were
Slap bang in the middle of a melt down
And the only way was up

And you were
Slap bang in the middle of a melt down
And the only way was up

My west coast summer, sinking in the sand
Watching the crows fly and watching the waves break land, over and over again
That slow walk home, her skin kissed by the sun
These days will come again, these days will come again these days will come again my Love

And you were
Slap bang in the middle of a melt down
And the only way was up

And you were
Slap bang in the middle of a melt down
And the only way was up

So keep my mother safe
My father strong
My brother brave
And my lover warm with me
And we'll ride out these waves

So keep my mother safe
My father strong
My brother brave
And my lover warm with me
And we'll ride out these waves

And you were
Slap bang in the middle of a melt down
And the only way was up

And you were
Slap bang in the middle of a melt down
And the only way was up

We couldn't see the mountains through the rain
Some said the sun might never come again
But we held on for hope
We held on for hope
We held on for hope

We couldn't see the mountains through the rain
Some said the sun might never come again
But we held on for hope
We held on for hope
We held on for hope
