Lyrical Genius!

I wrote first paper on music, and the way that the lyrics can effect somebody.
It all depends on how you can in the perspective of the singer/band.
The artist takes his music and transforms it into something desirable and worth listening to.
As a musician, I feel like I, as well, must take in the "grabbing people in" perspective.
 
These lyrics are something were reading so enjoy!
 
You saw my pain washed out in the rain
Broken glass, saw the blood run from my veins
But you saw no fault, no cracks in my heart
And you knelt beside my hope torn apart

But the ghosts that we knew will flicker from view
We'll live a long life

So give me hope in the darkness that I will see the light
'Cause oh that gave me such a fright
But I will hold as long as you like
Just promise me we'll be alright

So lead me back, turn south from that place
And close my eyes to my recent disgrace
'Cause you know my call
And we'll share my all
And our children come and they will hear me roar

So give me hope in the darkness that I will see the light
'Cause oh that gave me such a fright
But I will hold as long as you like
Just promise me we'll be alright

But hold me still, bury my heart on the coals
But hold me still, bury my heart on the coals 


 So give me hope in the darkness that I will see the light
'Cause oh that gave me such a fright
But I will hold on as long as you like
Just promise me we'll be alright
 
-Mumford and Sons
