Look at the stars,

Look how they shine for you,

And everything you do,

Yeah, they were all yellow.

I came along,

I wrote a song for you,

And all the things you do,

And it was called "Yellow".

So then I took my turn,

Oh what a thing to have done,

And it was all "Yellow."

Your skin,

Oh yeah your skin and bones,

Turn into something beautiful,

You know, you know I love you so,

You know I love you so.

I swam across,

I jumped across for you,

Oh what a thing to do.

Cos you were all "Yellow",

I drew a line,

I drew a line for you,

Oh what a thing to do,

And it was all "Yellow."

Your skin,

Oh yeah your skin and bones,

Turn into something beautiful,

And you know,

For you I'd bleed myself dry,

For you I'd bleed myself dry.

It's true,

Look how they shine for you,

Look how they shine for you,

Look how they shine for,

Look how they shine for you,

Look how they shine for you,

Look how they shine.

Look at the stars,

Look how they shine for you,

And all the things YOU do

In my place, in my place

Were lines that I couldn't change

I was lost, oh yeah

 

I was lost, I was lost

Crossed lines I shouldn't have crossed

I was lost, oh yeah

 

Yeah, how long must you wait for him?

Yeah, how long must you pay for him?

Yeah, how long must you wait for him?

 

I was scared, I was scared

Tired and underprepared

But I wait for you

 

If you go, if you go

Leaving me down here on my own

Well I wait for you

 

Yeah, how long must you wait for him?

Yeah, how long must you pay for him?

Yeah, how long must you wait for him?

 

Please, please, please

Come on and sing to me

To me, me

 

Come on and sing it out, out, out

Come on and sing it now, now, now

Come on and sing it

 

In my place, in my place

Were lines that I couldn't change

I was lost, oh yeah

Oh yeah

 

 

When you try your best, but you don't succeed

When you get what you want, but not what you need

When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep

Stuck in reverse

 

And the tears come streaming down your face

When you lose something you can't replace

When you love someone, but it goes to waste

Could it be worse?

 

Lights will guide you home

And ignite your bones

And I will try to fix you

 

And high up above or down below

When you're too in love to let it go

But if you never try you'll never know

Just what you're worth

 

Lights will guide you home

And ignite your bones

And I will try to fix you

 

Tears stream down on your face

When you lose something you cannot replace

Tears stream down on your face

And I...

 

Tears stream down on your face

I promise you I will learn from my mistakes

Tears stream down on your face

And I...

 

Lights will guide you home

And ignite your bones

And I will try to fix you

 

Lovers, keep on the road you're on

Runners, until the race is run

Soldiers, you've got to soldier on

Sometimes even right is wrong

 

They are turning my head out

To see what I'm all about

Keeping my head down

To see what it feels like now

But I have no doubt

One day, we are gonna get out

 

Tonight maybe we're gonna run

Dreaming of the Osaka sun

Ohh ohh...

Dreaming of when the morning comes

 

They are turning my head out

To see what I'm all about

Keeping my head down

To see what it feels like now

But I have no doubt

One day the sun will come out

 

Those who are dead are not dead

They’re just living in my head

And since I fell for that spell

I am living there as well

Oh..

 

Time is so short and I’m sure

There must be something more

 

Those who are dead are not dead

They’re just living in my head oh…

And since I fell for that spell

I am living there as well oh…

 

Time is so short and I’m sure

There must be something more

 

 

You thought you might be a ghost

You thought you might be a ghost

You didn’t get to heaven but you made it close

You didn’t get to heaven but you made it close

 

You thought you might be a ghost

You thought you might be a ghost

You didn’t get to heaven but you made it close

You didn’t get to heaven but you oh-oh-ooh, oh-oh-ooh

Oh oh…

 

Those who are dead are not dead

They’re just living in my head

Oh..

 

 

Written in graffiti on a bridge in a park

'Do you ever get the feeling that you're missing the mark?'

It's so cold, it's so cold

It's so cold, it's so cold

 

Written up in marker on a factory sign

'I struggle with the feeling that my life isn't mine'

It's so cold, it's so cold

It's so cold, it's so cold

 

See the arrow that they shot, trying to tear us apart

Take the fire from my belly and the beat from my heart

Still I won't let go

Still I won't let go

 

You

Ooohooh

 

'Cause you do

 

Oh you use your heart as a weapon

And it hurts like heaven

 

On every street every car every surface a name

Tonight the streets are ours

And we’re writing and saying

Don't let them take control

No we won't let them take control

 

Yes, I feel a little bit nervous,

Yes, I feel nervous and I cannot relax,

How come they're out to get us?

How come they're out when they don't know the facts?

 

So on concrete canvas under cover of dark

On concrete canvas, I'll go making my mark

Armed with a spray can soul

I'll be armed with a spray can soul

 

You

Ooohooh

 

Oh, you

Ooohooh

 

Yes, you

You use your heart as a weapon

And it hurts like heaven

 

Woho-ooh

Woho-oooh

 

It's true

When you

Use your heart as a weapon

It hurts like heaven

How you see the world:

 

"Are you missing something?

Looking for something?

Tired of everything

Searching and struggling

Are you worried about it?

Do you wanna talk about it?

Oh You're gonna get it right some time

 

 

Theres so much to be scared of

And not much to make sense of

Are you running in a circle?

You can't be too careful

And you can't relate it

'Cos it's complicated

Oh You're gonna get it right some time

You're gonna get it right some time

[...]

Is there something missing?

There's nobody listening

Are you scared of what you don't know?

Don't wanna end up on your own?

You need conversation

And information"

 

 

Low

 

"You see the world in black and white

No colour or light

You think you'll never get it right

But you're wrong... you might

 

The sky could fall, could fall on me

The parting of the seas

But you mean more, mean more to me

Than any colour I can see "

 

 

The Scientist

"Nobody said it was easy

No one ever said it would be so hard

I'm going back to the start"

 

 

Viva la vida

 

"Be my mirror, my sword and shield

My missionaries in a foreign field"

 

Fix you

whole! :D

Say what you mean

But it won't change a thing

I'm sick of the secrets

Stood on the edge

Tied to the noose

But you came along and you cut me loose

You came along and you cut me loose

You came along and you cut me loose

Oh, oh love don't let me go,

Won't you take me where street lights glow?

I can hear it coming

I can hear the siren sound

Now my feet won't touch the ground.

 

Time came a-creeping

Oh and time's a loaded gun

Every road is a ray of light

It goes on

Time'll leak and lead you on

Still it's such beautiful light

Politik: "Give me strength, Reserve control, Give me heart dont give me soul"

"Give me love over love over this"

 

Fix You: "When you love someone but it goes to waste, what could be worse?"

"Tears stream down on your face, when you lose something you cannot replace"

 

Life Is For Living: "Now I never meant to do you wrong, but that's what I came here to say. And if I was wrong then I'm sorry and I don't want to live it alone"

"Because in the end, there's only us. And that my friends is only love"

 

Don't Let It Break Your Heart: When your tired of aiming your arrows, still you never hit the mark. Even if your aims are shadows, still we never gone apart"

 

Warning Sign: "When the truth is, that I miss you"

"So I crawl back into your open arms"

 

Sorry for so many but these would be my favourites!!

Oh I never meant to cause you trouble

Oh I never meant to do you wrong

Oh well if I ever caused you trouble

Oh no I never meant to do you harm

 

8 to 9, 9 to 10

We are meeting for the first time

We might never meet again, you and me

We are meeting for the first time can't you see

7 6 5 4 3

We are meeting for the first time

Singing this space symphony

 

You see the world in black and white

Not painted right

You see no meaning to your life

You should try

 

So you can hurt, hurt me bad

But still I'll raise the flag

 

And all of Politik...

"I'm gonna buy a gun and start a war, if you can tell me something worth fighting for"

 

and

 

"Stood on the edge, tied to the noose, but you came along and you cut me loose"

 

I miss the AROBTTH era when their lyrics were actually meaningful.

"Lights will guide you home

And ignite your bones

And I will try to fix you"

 

"People talking without speaking

Trying to take what they can get

I ask you if you remember

Prospekt, how could I forget?"

 

"And time is on your side, its on your side, now

Not pushing you down, and all around

No it's no cause for concern"

" Is there anybody out there who is lost and hurt and lonely too

Are they bleeding all your colors into one?

And if you come undone as if you've been run through

Some catapult, it fired you, you wonder if your chance will ever come

Or if you're stuck in square one "

From Prospekt's March / Poppyfields:

 

“Don’t you wish that life could be as simple

As fish swimming round in a barrel?”

 

“I don’t wanna die on my own here tonight

But here I lie on my own in a separate sky”

 

From Gravity:

 

“When your wheels stop turning

And you feel let down

And it seems like troubles

Have come all around

I can hear your heart beating

I can hear that sound”

 

Two of the very best songs for me.

"Come out upon my seas,

curse missed opportunities.

Am I apart of the cure

or am I part of the disease?"

 

"I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing,

Roman cavalry choirs are singing.

Be my mirror, my sword and shield,

my missionaries in a foreign field.

For some reason I can't explain,

I know St. Peter won't call my name.

Never an honest word-

but that was when I ruled the world."

 

"Smoke is rising from the houses,

people burying their dead

I ask somebody what the time is,

but time doesn't matter to them yet.

People talking without speaking,

trying to take what they can get-

I ask you if you remember,

Prospekt, how could I forget?"

 

"Oh morning come bursting, the clouds, amen.

Lift off this blindfold let me see again.

And bring back the water, let your ships roll in;

in my heart she left a hole.

The tightrope that I'm walking just sways and ties,

the Devil as he's talking with those angels eyes.

And I just wanna be there when the lightning strikes

and the saints go marching in."

 

Unfortunately, it sounds like there won't be this kind of quality on the new album, no-less based on what I saw from "A Sky Full of Stars." :sad2:
