June 5, 200818 yr I noticed that as well hehe. I bet it'll still get a clean rating on iTunes. It sounds a bit flat. Sorry guys not Fuck. Any musician knows what that mean.
June 5, 200818 yr It sounds a bit flat. Sorry guys not Fuck. Any musician knows what that mean. It sounds like "flat" to me, too.
June 5, 200818 yr Okay, this is what I got for lyrics. There are still some question marks lying around, and some lines that I'm not too sure about. Feel free to correct. "Life In Technicolor" Ohh ohh ohh... "Cemeteries Of London" At night they would go walking 'Til the breaking of the day The morning is for sleeping Through the dark streets, they go searching To see God in their own way Save the nighttime for your weeping Your weeping Singing la la la la la la ehh And the night over London lay So we rode down to the river Where the (?) For their curses to be broken We go wander 'neath the arches Where the witches are (?) There are ghost towns in the ocean The ocean Singing la la la la la la ehh And the night over London lay God is in the houses And God is in my head And all the cemeteries in London I see God come in my garden But I don’t know what he said For my heart, it wasn’t open Not open Singing la la la la la la ehh And the night over London lay Singing la la la la la la ehh There’s no light over London today. "Lost!" Just because I'm losing Doesn't mean I'm lost Doesn't mean I'll stop Doesn't mean I'm a cross Just because I'm hurting Doesn't mean I'm hurt Doesn't mean I didn't get What I deserved No better and no worse I just got lost Every river that I tried to cross Every door I ever tried was locked Ohh, and I'm just waiting 'til the shine wears off You might be a big fish In a little pond Doesn't mean you've won 'Cause along may come A bigger one And you'll be lost Every river that you tried to cross Every gun you ever held went off Ohh, and I just waited 'til the firing stopped Ohh, and I'm just waiting 'til the shine wears off Ohh, and I'm just waiting 'til the shine wears off Ohh, and I'm just waiting 'til the shine wears off. "42" 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 Ohh... 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 Ohh... And since I fell For that spell I am living there as well Ohh... Time is so short And I'm sure There must be something more Ohh... 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, ohh ohh... Those who are dead Are not dead They're just living in my head Ooh... "Lovers In Japan" Lovers, keep on the road you're on Runners until the race is run Soldiers, you’ve got to soldier on Sometimes even the 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, were gonna get out Tonight, maybe we’re gonna run Dreaming of the Osaka sun 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. "Reign Of Love" Reign of love I can’t let go To the sea I offer This heavy load Locusts will Lift me up I’m just a prisoner In a reign of love Locusts will Never stop I wish I'd spoken To the reign of love Reign of love By the church, we're waiting Reign of love My knees go praying How I wish I'd spoken up Away we're carried In the reign of love. "Yes" When it started, we had hopes Now my back's on the line, my back's on the ropes When it started, we were alright But night makes a fool of us in the daylight There we were dying of frustration Singin, "Lord lead me not into temptation" But it's not easy when she turns you on (?) If you'll only, if you'll only say yes Whether you will's anybody's guess God, only God knows I'm trying my best But I'm so tired of this loneliness So, up they picked me by the big toe I was held from the rooftop, then they let go There's only screaming, let the windows down As I come to the ground If you'll only, if you'll only say "Yes" Whether you will's anybody's guess God, only God knows she won't let me rest But I'm just so tired of this loneliness I've become so tired of this loneliness. "Chinese Sleep Chant" Fall asleep Driving me Sleep satisfy Sleep satisfy Fall asleep Driving me Sleep satisfy Sleep satisfy Sleep Sleep Sleep Sleep Sleep Sleep satisfy Sleep satisfy Fall asleep Fall asleep Sleep crucify Sleep crucify Fall asleep Fall asleep Sleep satisfy Sleep satisfy Sleep Sleep Sleep Sleep Sleep Sleep satisfy Sleep satisfy. "Viva La Vida" I used to rule the world Seas would rise when I gave the word Now in the morning I sleep alone Sweep the streets I used to own I used to roll the dice Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes Listen as the crowd would sing: "Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!" One minute I held the key Next the walls were closed on me And I discovered that my castles stand Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand I hear Jerusalem bells a-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 Once you go there was never Never an honest word That was when I ruled the world It was the wicked and wild wind Blew down the doors to let me in Shattered windows and the sound of drums People couldn't believe what I'd become Revolutionaries wait For my head on a silver plate Just a puppet on a lonely string Oh who would ever want to be king? I hear Jerusalem bells a-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 Ohh... Hear Jerusalem bells a-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 work But that was when I ruled the world Ooh... "Violet Hill" Was a long and dark December From the rooftops I remember There was snow White snow Clearly I remember From the windows they were watching While we froze Down below When the future's architectured By a carnival of idiots On show You better lie low If you love me, won't you let me know? Was a long and dark December When the banks became cathedrals And the frauds Became God Priests clutched onto Bibles Hollowed out to fit their rifles And the cross Was held aloft Bury me in armor When I'm dead and hit the ground My love's opposed By armed foes And if you love me, won't you let me know? I don't wanna be a soldier Who a captain of some sinking ship Would stow Far below So if you love me, why'd you let me go? I took my love down to Violet Hill There we sat in snow All that time she was silent still So if you love me, won't you let me know? If you love me, won't you let me know? "Stawberry Swing" They were sitting They were sitting in the Strawberry Swing Every moment was so precious They were sitting They were talking in the Strawberry Swing Everybody was (?) Wouldn't wanna waste a thing Cold, cold water, bring me 'round Now my feet won't touch the ground Cold, cold water, whatcha say? It's such, it's such a perfect day It's such a perfect day I remember We were walking up to Strawberry Swing I can't wait 'til the morning Wouldn't wanna change a thing People leaving all the time Inside a perfectly straight line Don't you wanna curve away? And it's such, it's such a perfect day It's such a perfect day Now the sky could be blue I don't mind Without you, it's a waste of time Could be blue I don't mind Without you, it's a waste of time The sky could be blue Could be grey Without you I'm just miles away The sky could be blue I don't mind Without you it's a waste of time. "Death And All His Friends" All winter, we got carried Away over on the rooftops, let's get married All summer, we just hurried So come over, just be patient and don’t worry So come over, just be patient and don’t worry So come over, just be patient and don’t worry And don’t worry No I don’t want to battle from beginning to end I don’t want a cycle of recycled revenge I don’t want to follow death and all of his friends No I don’t want to battle from beginning to end I don’t want a cycle of recycled revenge I don’t want to follow death and all of his friends. "The Escapist" And in the end We lie awake And we dream of making our escape And in the end We lie awake And we dream of making our escape.

June 5, 200818 yr ah shit i hate it when i dont see the threads that serve the same purpose. please ignore
June 5, 200818 yr Here are the complete and corrected lyrics for Reign of Love.. enjoy Reign of love I can’t let go To the sea of Lucero No could swim Lift me up I’m just a peaceful In the reign of love No could swim A little stop I wish I'd spoken To the reign of love Reign of love By the church for waiting Reign of love My knees go preying How I wish I'd spoken up How we get carried On the reign of love

June 5, 200818 yr It's "I'm just a prisoner in a reign of love" as well. Really not sure they're correct.
June 5, 200818 yr An update to "Reign of Love": Reign of love I can’t let go To the sea I offer This heavy load Locusts will Lift me up I’m just a prisoner In a reign of love Locusts will ? I wish I'd spoken To the reign of love Reign of love By the church, we're waiting Reign of love My knees go praying How I wish I'd spoken up ? In the reign of love.
June 5, 200818 yr The only reall meaning I found to the sea of Lucero is a song, call Gone to the Sea, from Lucero, who claimed that his heart had been landlocked and gone to the sea. Maybe it could be other sea, but it makes sense. About the prisoner part, i think you are right.. it's prisoner. And by the way, I have completed the Chinese Sleep Chant lyrics.. what do you say? Fall asleep Driving me Sleep satisfied Sleep satisfied Fall asleep Driving me Sleep satisfied Sleep satisfied Sleep Sleep Sleep Sleep Sleep satisfied Sleep satisfied Fall asleep Fall asleep Sleep crucify Sleep crucify Fall asleep Fall asleep Sleep satisfied Sleep satisfied Sleep Sleep Sleep Sleep Sleep satisfied Sleep satisfied
June 5, 200818 yr rooftoops must be very important for chris..................:P Yes "So, up they picked me by the big toe I was held from the rooftop then they let go" Violet hill "was a long and dark December From the rooftops i remember" Death and all his friends "All winter we got carried Away over on the rooftops Lets get married"
June 5, 200818 yr In the Kimmel version of Violet Hill, Martin clearly sings "and the fox became God", not and the fog. Shouldn't we alter that? I don't know if this remark is already posted elsewhere, there are so many threads concerning lyrics...

I don't know if this remark is already posted elsewhere, there are so many threads concerning lyrics... I think he slipped up on the wording that's all. "Fog" makes some sense (debatable) but fox is just meaningless...to me...
June 6, 200818 yr it seems that for this album we're really going to need the lyrics on the booklet! more than 24 hours since the album leaked and still some parts of songs undeciphered!
June 6, 200818 yr Was a long and dark December When the banks became cathedrals And the frauds Became God not "God". maybe "gone"?:rolleyes:
June 6, 200818 yr Am I the only one who thinks that this part of Death and All His Friends is wrong: "No I don’t want a battle from the intuit I don’t wanna cycle, recycle revenge I don’t wanna follow death and all his friends" No mattter how many times (and how loud) I listen to it I hear that it goes rather like this: No, I don't wanna battle from beginning to end..." Correct me if I got it all wrong... :thinking:

Correct me if I got it all wrong... :thinking: No your right, I said it before.
June 6, 200818 yr Agh! Cemeteries of London and Reign of Love are the only two (cept CSChant) that I can't figure all the words out. Really bugging me. "Night over London hey?" "Night over London bay?" "Night over London say?" "Night over London they?" CEMETERIES OF LONDON At night they would go walking 'til the breaking of the day The morning is for sleeping Through the dark streets they go searching to see God in their own way Save the nighttime for your weeping Your weeping Singing la la la la la la ehh And the night over London they say So we rode down to the river where the trees sing For the curses to be broken We go underneath the arches where the witches are singing: “There are ghost towns in the ocean The ocean” Singing la la la la la la ehh And the night over London they say God's in the houses and God's in my head And all the cemeteries in London I see God come in my garden but I don’t know what He said For my heart it wasn’t open Not open Singing la la la la la la ehh And the night over London they say Singing la la la la la la ehh There’s no light over London today I think they're many probs with that still...
