July 1, 201115 yr The lyrics of ETIAW just do not fit at all. When they released the first part of the lyrics bit by bit I thought 'ok - yeah that's fine' but I was not expecting them to be sung in a dance beat manner! I think the best lyrics go to Charlie Brown 'my scarecrow dreams when they smashed my heart into smithereens I'll be a bright red rose combusting the concrete' I like this from MTM as well 'Somewhere up above the stars the wreckage of a universe floats by'
July 1, 201115 yr cannot believe no one has said this: It's true When you Use your heart as a weapon It hurts like heaven
July 1, 201115 yr The best lyric of any of the new songs is easily from Charlie Brown; "My scarecrow dreams When they smash my heart into smithereens I'll be a bright red rose combusting the concrete Be a cartoon heart Light a fire, light a spark Light a fire, a flame in my heart We'll run wild We'll be glowing in the dark" Will have to agree with this.
July 2, 201115 yr I have many, but my favorite one is in my signature :wacky:. That little phrase is my philosophy :cheesy:
July 2, 201115 yr I like how this thread shows the glaring deficiencies in lyrical consistency among the new songs. :p
July 2, 201115 yr "We are meeting for the first time, can't you see 76543" moving to mars This line stuck in my head: P
July 2, 201115 yr and all the kids they dance, all the kids all night, until monday morning feels another life i turn the music up, i'm on a roll this time and heaven is in sight works brilliantly with the buildup.
July 2, 201115 yr What about this one: You could have been the princess, I'd be a king Could have had a castle and wore a ring But, no-oooh, you got me-oooh-on Haha how in the world did you decipher those lyrics!? I can hardly make any words out of that live version of POC, the quality isnt that great. :)
July 2, 201115 yr Oh boy :P 'Hear those crocodiles ticking round the world I hear those crocodiles ticking, you go ticking round the world' 'This tightrope that I'm walking just sways and ties The devil as he's talking with those angel's eyes And I just wanna be there when the lightning strikes And the saints go marching in' 'My scarecrow dreams When they smash my heart into smithereens I'll be a bright red rose combusting the concrete' . . . And I'll probably think of more later :awesome:
July 3, 201115 yr Agree that the second verse to Charlie Brown. I just love the way they sing it live.
July 3, 201115 yr to me all of ETIAW is awful, lyrically I understand ETIAW 100% Its about people that get rejected, that sufer everyday , in school , bullying, racism, when you feel alone, that when you are alone you still have music , see: As I understand it, it has a GREAT message I TURN THE MUSIC UP, I GOT MY RECORDS ON I SHUT THE WORLD OUTSIDE UNTIL THE LIGHTS COME ON MAYBE THE STREETS ALIGHT, MAYBE THE TREES ARE GONE I FEEL MY HEART START BEATING TO MY FAVOURITE SONG You can hear music, forget everything that happens in the world, even when there is no hope (trees are gone) and just think and listen to your music and enter to a diferent world for a while AND ALL THE KIDS THEY DANCE, ALL THE KIDS ALL NIGHT UNTIL MONDAY MORNING FEELS ANOTHER LIFE I TURN THE MUSIC UP I'M ON A ROLL THIS TIME AND HEAVEN IS IN SIGHT All the kids are having fun outside, all night, but you don't care, they have hurt you, but you feel good because of the music , you are in a roll, you are okay with it. I TURN THE MUSIC UP, I GOT MY RECORDS ON FROM UNDERNEATH THE RUBBLE SING A REBEL SONG DON'T WANT TO SEE ANOTHER GENERATION DROP I'D RATHER BE A COMMA THAN A FULL STOP Here is where you begin to love your life, you realize you would rather be dying than die, you enjoy your music and you begin to feel better , you get yourself into your own world inside your heart MAYBE I'M IN THE BLACK, MAYBE I'M ON MY KNEES MAYBE I'M IN THE GAP BETWEEN THE TWO TRAPEZES BUT MY HEART IS BEATING AND MY PULSES START CATHEDRALS IN MY HEART "cathedrals in my heart" means that you are now in your own world, in your heart (chris is in his heart when in the dark room scene) everything looks beautiful, everything is perfect and you realize the world is beautiful, and crying is not the solution to your problems AND WE SAW OH THIS LIGHT I SWEAR YOU, EMERGE BLINKING INTO TO TELL ME IT'S ALRIGHT AS WE SOAR WALLS, EVERY SIREN IS A SYMPHONY AND EVERY TEAR'S A WATERFALL IS A WATERFALL OH IS A WATERFALL OH OH OH IS A IS A WATERFALL EVERY TEAR IS A WATERFALL OH OH OH Listening to music, enjoying life, you are inside your dream world in your heart, and in your world, every teardrop is a waterfall SO YOU CAN HURT, HURT ME BAD BUT STILL I'LL RAISE THE FLAG Now you know that even when the world its at its worst, and all the people seem to be against you (us against the world) you can still be victorious and "raise the flag" OH IT WAS A WA WA WA WA WA-ATERFALL A WA WA WA WA WA-ATERFALL EVERY TEAR EVERY TEAR EVERY TEARDROP IS A WATERFALL EVERY TEAR EVERY TEAR EVERY TEARDROP IS A WATERFALL Enjoying the beautiful images inside your heart, inside your world... where...every teardrop is a waterfall Incredible how a simple song can change your world I love ETIAW :D

There's nothing in that song except for the lyrics on their own. Nobody is getting rejected or anything. "Cathedrals in my heart" is just a cheesy Chris Martin line.

"Cathedrals in my heart" is just a cheesy Chris Martin line. So you say they don't mean anything? You have to think , I could have said ETIAW has non sense lyrics, but what I said makes perfect sense for me , if it doesn't for you and you want to thing they are random words then it's okay, but people have to be more open minded
