Salvation Lyrics

You are the avalanche
One world away
My make believing
While I'm wide awake

Just a trick of light
To bring me back around again
Those wild eyes
A psychedelic silhouette

I never meant to fall for you but I
Was buried underneath and
All that I could see was white
My Salvation
My, my
My salvation
My, my

Oh

You are the snowstorm
I'm purified
The darkest fairytale
In the dead of night

Let the band play out
As I'm making my way home again
Glorious we transcend
Into a psychedelic silhouette

I never meant to fall for you but I
Was buried underneath and
All that I could see was white
My salvation
My, my
My salvation
My, my
My salvation
My, my
My salvation
My, my

Oh, oh, oh

My salvation
My, my
My salvation
My, my
My salvation
My, my
My salvation
My, my

Salvation

Gabrielle Aplin came up with this song on the piano. She recalled to Artist Direct : "The lyrics didn't come up until the end of the session. I was reading, and I had the idea. I wrote it really quickly. After struggling for about six hours, I got it in about half-an-hour. It's a random song to write, really."

Aplin explained the song's meaning: "It's about having something you go to that's consistently there," she said. "You have some sort of salvation - whatever it may be. It could be God. It could be a friend. It could be a girlfriend or a boyfriend. It could be anything."

Asked by Coup De Main magazine if she has a favorite song to play live, Aplin replied: "With my band, I love playing 'Home' live. When it's me on my own, I love to play my song 'Salvation.'"
