And I'm not gonna take it back

And I'm not gonna say I don't mean that

Your the target that I'm aiming at

But I'm nothing on my own

~A Message

 

I don't know why, perhaps it's just the way it's sung. I gave up analysing this stuff years ago (over analysis of Shakespeare it Literature/English classes just drove me nuts after a while), though I wonder why I didn't choose the somewhat similar:

 

And I'm not gonna take it back

Well I'm not gonna say I don't mean that

Your the target that I'm aiming at

And I get that message home

 

From the same song? I don't see any cohesive meaning to that verse.

everything I know is wrong

everything I do, it just comes undone

everything is torn apart

oh and that's the hardest part...

*upbeat piano tune* :D

-The Hardest Part

 

on a plataform I'm gonna stand and say

that I'm nothing on my own

and I love you please come home

-A Message

 

Pretty much all of Fix You too...

what good is it to live

with nothing left to give

to forget but not forgive

not loving all you see

--swallowed in the sea

 

 

 

is there anybody out there who

is lost and hurt and lonely too

are they bleeding all your colours into one

--Square One

ooo I forgot to mention that one...I love that part :)

you know that darkness always turns into light

 

love that line.

 

Completely agree

SQUARE ONE

 

You're in control

is there anywhere you wanna go?

You're in control

is there anything you wanna know?

The future's for discovering

the space in which we travel in.

 

Under the surface trying to break through.

Deciphering the codes in you.

I need a compass, draw me a map.

I'm on the top, I can't get back.

Two things that I want to know:

-The meaning of those sentences (at White Shadows): "Tide of the human races" and "Part of the system again".

-The lyrics of the leaked version of Talk.

hundreds of years in the future, we could be computers, looking for life on earth

 

oooh yeah, i love that one as well. hah i know for mindy, i'm not sure if it's the lyrics or what he does with his voice, but she made me play this one part over and over again.

 

it's during white shadows:

see it in the new sun rise and

see it breaking on your horizon

on a plataform I'm gonna stand and say

that I'm nothing on my own

and I love you please come home

-A Message

 

 

You know it Rachel ! :blush:

 

This bit of the song always makes me cry :embarrased:

fix you..

when you get what you want but not what you need

when you feel so tired but you can't sleep

stuck in reverse..

A Message:

 

My song is love, unknown

But I'm on fire for you, clearly

 

And I'm not gonna stand and wait

Not gonna be there until it's much too late

On a platform I'm gonna stand and say

That I'm nothing on my own

And I love you, please come home

 

I just love the lyrics of this song so much, absolutely beautiful! :D

"When you're too in love to let it go"

"I dive in at the deep end

You've become my best friend

I wanna love you

But I don't know if i can" (X&Y)

 

melodically this is my favorite part of the album, and it lyrically hits home

 

(btw, on the official site, check out the lyrics for X&Y (the song), the intro has different lyrics than whats on the album, as in whole lines omitted)

"In your tears and in your blood

In your fire and in your flood

I hear you laugh, I heard you sing

I wouldn’t change a single thing"

 

-Till Kingdom Come

on a platform I'm gonna stand and say

that I'm nothing on my own

and I love you please come home

-A Message (seems to be a others favorite as well...)

 

and

 

 

Tears stream down your face

When you lose something you cannot replace

Tears stream down your face and I

 

Tears streamdown your face

I promise you I will learn from my mistakes

Tears stream down your face and I

-Fix You

A Message:

-------------------------------------------------

And I'm not gonna stand and wait

Not gonna leave it until its much too late

On a platform I'm gonna stand and say

That I'm nothing on my own

--------------------------------------------------

Lights will guide you home

And ignite your bones

And I will try...

To Fix You

 

It made me cry the first time especially when the guitar starts!

Everything you ever wanted

In a permanent state

Maybe you'll know when you see it

Maybe if yo say it you'll mean it

and when you'll find it you'll keep it

In a permanent state

"For you, I'd wait 'til kingdom come.

Until my day, my day is done.

And say you'll come, and set me free,

Just say you'll wait, you'll wait for me"

 

Beautiful. I love that bit form 'Til Kingdom come. Its so sweet :)

Created... then drilled and invaded

If somebody made it

Someone will mess it up

When u try ur best but u dont succeed

when u get what u want but not what u need

when u feel so tired but u cant sleep

stuck in reverse

.....when u lose something u cant replace

when u love someone but it goes to waste

could it be worse

 

GOSH---SO MANY TIMES I HAVE FELT LIKE THAT

THATS WHY THOSE LYRICS GET TO ME---I ALWAYS SHED A TEAR IN THAT PART

SUCH A TOUCHING SONG :(

I promise you i will learn from my mistakes...

Lights Will Guide You Home And Ignite Your Bones... I Will Try To Fix You...

All that noise, All that sound...

 

This album is full of good one-liners :D

i've enjoy...

 

'...when you love someone but it goes to waste'

'i'm not gonna take it back and i'm not gonna say i don't mean that...'
