Featured Replies

Just curious as to know what are some of all of your favorite songs lyrically??Is there a song you can relate too?Or is it how Chris sings the lyrics?Describe what gets you hooked on the song.For me one of my favorite songs lyrically is the Talk demo version.The version that got leaked.The way Chris' voice sounds and they way he sings it i thinks is what makes me love it so much!And the lyrics!!The first verse is what really get me hooked on that song.

 

"under the great north star,try to work out where you are

in the silence of the sea,i dont know where i be

In the future and the past,going nowhere much too fast

when i go there,go with me,ohh,when i go there go with me"

hmmm...tough call.

 

but what popped into my mind right now...Gravity, Proof, A Ghost.

"I wanna live life, never be cruel,

I wanna live life, and be good to you.

 

I wanna fly and never come down,

And live my life,

And have friends around.

 

We never change, do we?

We never learn, do we?

So I wanna live in a wooden house,

I wanna live life, always be true,

I wanna live life, and be good to you,

I wanna fly, and never come down,

And I live my life,

And have friends around.

 

We never change do we? No, no,

We never learn, do we?

So I wanna live in a wooden house,

Making more friends would be easy.

 

Oh I don't have a soul to save,

Yes, and I sin every single day,

We never change do we?

We never learn, do we?

 

So, I wanna live life in a wooden house,

Making more friends would be easy,

I wanna live where the sun comes out."

Poor Me

Coldplay

 

poor me, i'm floating out to sea

an opportunity that went by

poor you, oh what you gonna do

no what you gonna do, you just cry

 

oh, you always come undone

try into the sun, you don't know why

poor you, i know what you gonna do

come on love i'll see it through, i don't know why

 

i hear you come nearer

i hear you but i don't understand

i hear you come nearer

i hear you but i don't understand

 

poor me, now float me out to sea

oh no just let it be, come on try

poor you, oh what you gonna do

oh what you gonna do, you just cry

 

i hear you come nearer

i hear you but i don't understand

i hear you come nearer

i hear you but i don't understand

 

i don't understand

i don't understand

 

oooh, ahhhh, ahhhh

Live Forever

Coldplay

Maybe I don't really want to know

How your garden grows

I just want to fly

Lately did you ever feel the pain

In the morning rain

As it soaks you to the bone

 

Maybe I just want to fly

I want to live I don't want to die

Maybe I just want to breath

Maybe I just don't believe

Maybe you're the same as me

We see things they'll never see

You and I are gonna live forever

 

Maybe I don't really want to know

How your garden grows

'Cause I just want to fly

Lately did you ever feel the pain

In the morning rain

As it soaks you to the bone

 

Maybe I will never be

All the things that I'd like to be

But now is not the time to cry

Now's the time to find out why

I think you're the same as me

We see things they'll never see

You and I are gonna live forever

We're gonna live forever

 

Maybe I don't really want to know

How your garden grows

'Cause I just want to fly

Lately did you ever feel the pain

In the morning rain

As it soaks you to the bone

 

Maybe I just want to fly

I want to live I don't want to die

Maybe I just want to breath

Maybe I just don't believe

Maybe you're the same as me

We see things they'll never see

You and I are gonna live forever

 

You and I are gonna live forever

You and I are gonna live forever

You and I are gonna live forever

Gonna live forever

Gonna live forever

Gonna live forever

Gonna live forever

You Only Live Twice

Coldplay

You only live twice

Or so it seems

One life for yourself

And one for your dreams

You drift through the years

And life seems tame

Till one dream appears

And love is its name

And love is a stranger

Who'll beckon you on

Don't think of the danger

Or the stranger is gone

 

This dream is for you

So pay the price

Make one dream come true

You only live twice

 

And love is a stranger

Who'll beckon you on

Don't think of the danger

Or the stranger is gone

 

This dream is for you

So pay the price

Make one dream come true

You only live twice

Moses

Coldplay

Come on now, don't you want to see?

This thing that's happening to me

Like moses has power over sea

So you've got power over me

 

Come on now, don't you want to know?

You're a refuge, somewhere I can go

You're air that, air that I can breathe

Cause you're my golden opportunity

 

And oh, oh yes I would

If I only could

And you know I would

And baby I, oh baby I

I wish

 

Come on now, don't you want to see?

Just what a difference you've made in me

I'll be waiting oh no matter what you say

Cause I've been waiting for days, days, days

 

And oh, oh yes I would

If I only could

And you know I would

And baby I, oh baby I

I wish

I wish

 

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

If the sky's gonna fall down, let it fall on me

If you're gonna break down, you can break on me

If the sky's gonna fall down, let it fall on me

If it's gonna rain down, it can rain on me

It can rain on me

live forever & you only live twice aren't coldplay songs

There´s a lot of great stuff, but now I have to mention We never change, I simply love that part "Oh and I don´t have a soul to save, yes and I sin every single day... We never change do we? We never learn, do we?" Absolutely fantastic!

A Rush of Blood to the Head "I'm gonna buy a gun and start a war / If you can tell me something worth fighting for..."

We Never Change "Yeah and don't have a soul to save / Yes, but I sin every single day..."

Twisted Logic "Hundreds of years in the future / There could be computers / Looking for life on earth..."

Gravity "Gravity pulls on you and me..."

Politik "Give me wounds that heal and cracks that fix..."

Don't Panic "We live in a beautiful world..."

Life Is For Living (Live version) "And in the end / There is only us..."

 

In that order.
