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, oh oh.
You are the snow storm, I'm purified
The darkest fairytale in the dead of night
and let the band play out, as I'm making my way home again
Glorious, sweet 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.
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
was buried underneath and all that I could see was white.
My salvation, my my
oh, oh oh.
The darkest fairytale in the dead of night
and let the band play out, as I'm making my way home again
Glorious, sweet transcend into a psychedelic silhouette
was buried underneath and all that I could see was white.
My salvation, my my.
My salvation, my my.
My salvation, my my.

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."
This is about having someone come into your life when you least expect and they bring you out of a dark place or time
You are the avalanche (sudden, quick)
One world away (they can take you into a completely different world to the dark one your in at the moment)
My make believing (it's like a dream or a desire. It doesn't feel real)
While I'm wide awake (but it is real. It's woken you up to the rest of the world around you not just the bubble you've been living in)
Just a trick of light (not really there just a trick)
To bring me back around again (to bring me back to the tea world)
Those wild eyes (something new something different)
A psychedelic silhouette (together you're opposites. They're the colour to your darkness)
I never meant to fall for you but I (your not in the right frame of mind. Not supposed to be thinking about love right now)
Was buried underneath and (underneath all the grief)
All that I could see was white (could only see one thing I.e. One colour)
My salvation My, my My salvation My, my
You are the snowstorm (Avalanche again)
I'm purified (you remove all the bad parts)
The darkest fairytale (it's like your own fairytale but with a twist of darkness)
In the dead of night (your life has been like night until they came. Dark, lonely,silent)
Let the band play out (tell everyone I'm back from where I've been. I've gotten away from that dark spell)
As I'm making my way home again (back to normal)
Glorious we transcend (it's amazing how you've pulled through)
Into a psychedelic silhouette (same as before)
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
My salvation My, my My salvation My, my My salvation My, my My salvation My, my
