SNOW PATROL

- The President Lyrics

I've run to ground
I've run from everyone that I have ever known
I'm aching cold
I'm aching from the bones the very blood of me

And it's broke before you know it
Before you knew what it was for
All you know is you can't fix it
And you wish you listened more
To your instincts, to your family
To the wisdom you'd ignored
Are you finally gonna ask us -- for help?

I've crashed to Earth
But I've fallen for so long that it was just relief
I saw your face
In everyone that looked me in my drunken eyes
And it's broke before you know it,
Before you knew what it was for
All you know is you can;t fix it
And you wish you listened more
To your instincts, to your family
To the wisdom you'd ignored
When you finally gonna ask us -- for help?

I can see you at the front gate
As you wait on my return
The years have blurred to eons
But the tears have never dried
But I'm not coming to you like this
So batter down and sad
I will take the road forgotten
Again

What is the meaning behind The President lyrics?


When we dive into the story the lyrics are telling, the track 'The President' by Snow Patrol takes a deep dive into the emotional pool of alienation, pity, and the battle of asking for help at the right time. The words narrate a story of a person who is very much in need of the other person's support and empathy and, therefore, very much exposed to the power of one's intuition and help from the nearest and dearest during the dark hours. The lyrics of the president also mainly focus on despair, and heartbreak, and on the process of going through these feelings: the emitting feeling of solitude and reflecting on one's life. The song thus conveys the same message through its various aspects of struggle and isolation, regret and reflection, help-seeking and pain, and finally, emotional resilience. The words carry themes of individual combat, hurt feelings, and even alcohol use, which are not appropriate for children under 13. The context and the nature of the lyrics indicate the necessity of parental supervision.
