Snow Patrol provides examples of the following tropes:

• Album Title Drop:
  • Final Straw: "Chocolate"
  • A Hundred Million Suns: "The Planets Bend Between Us"
• Lyrical Dissonance: "You Are All That I Have" is pretty upbeat but the lyrics are just as desperate as the title suggests.
• Non-Appearing Title: Every album has at least one.
