"Lifeline" lyrics - IMOGEN HEAP

Freeze frame on me
Can you read it on my face?
Data mining from old memories

Sunflowers and a smile catching
Welcome in a heartbeat to the family
Light Thai lanterns, wish bound in the night

Who what when
All in one
Stir of a teaspoon
I'm shaken and gasping for air

Lifeline, before and after in an instant of great white gravity
Hold tight, 'cause all is against me every cell in my body brace
And keep breathing

Gracious future
Won't you lend a hand to pull me through?
'Cause me and you've got some things we need to see to
Let's get to work, let's get to work

Adventures in the multiverse
Effervescent candlelit closenesses
Plus I feel like I've just got the hang of this 'living' thing

Who what when
All in one
Stir of a teaspoon
I'm shaken and gasping for air, air, air, air
I will on one day
And sometime in someplace
I've still got some go in me yet

Life line, before and after in an instant of great white gravity
Hold tight, 'cause all is against me, every cell in my body brace
Rise high, cling to the laughters for that moment of broken tragedy
Bright eyed the world is against me every cell in my body brace
Woo, And keep breathing, check breathing, still breathing

My bones stay strong
My days still long
My heart has many heartbeats
And home, is where love is
Woah...

Life line, before and after in an instant of great white gravity
Hold tight, 'cause all is against me, every cell in my body brace
Rise high, cling to the laughters for that moment of broken tragedy
Bright eyed the world is against me every cell in my body brace
And keep breathing

Lifeline, before and after
The moment that makes me
Hold tight all is against me
Well I've still got my eye on tomorrow
The moment that makes me I'm in it deep
