Ways and Means Lyrics

Lyric discussion by akasia 

Cover art for Ways and Means lyrics by Snow Patrol

im not sure it is about a relationship. maybe his sick of everything in his life? like lauradonaghy said feeling restless. from the blood in the mouth lyric and the doctor making it right it sounds like hes been in a fight. maybe hes bored of the people and the fights and his lifestlye of the place he is living. maybe he cant afford to move away from his home or family so he has no choice but to stay and is frustrated?
