August 12, 201114 yr What are your favorite lyrics from the new songs/album so far? I've got to say, my favorite lyrics are from a track we haven't even heard yet. It's on the album cover. :smug: The two of us, we drove A speeding ghost and a shadow Luminous the road to the sea We swam from the shallows To bottle lightning’s glow Where we’re gonna run, God only knows
August 12, 201114 yr Written in graffiti, in a bridge, in a park, do you ever get the feeling that your missing your mark? and "I struggle with the idea that my life isn't mine'
August 12, 201114 yr Author I also really like (most of) Charlie Brown. In my scarecrow dreams When they smash my heart into smithereens I'll be a bright red rose combusting the concrete Be a cartoon heart

In my scarecrow dreams When they smash my heart into smithereens I'll be a bright red rose combusting the concrete Be a cartoon heart Yes, I pretty much love every new song lyrics, but my favorite is UATW. I don't know why, but I love the songs that start off with only Chris, and then gradually add the other band members, much like "Fix you", which is my favorite song by them, ever.

August 12, 201114 yr All of Hurts Like Heaven is a Lyrical Orgasm (AGAIN) (I stole it from someone ^^)
August 12, 201114 yr All of Hurts Like Heaven is a Lyrical Orgasm (AGAIN) (I stole it from someone ^^) haha yes!!!
August 12, 201114 yr Chris' lyrics have always been lame since the very first song. I'm glad it doesn't change at least :smug:
August 12, 201114 yr "Written in graffiti on a bridge in the park. Do you ever get the feeling that you're missing the mark?" - Hurts Like Heaven "Hear those crocodiles ticking around the world. Hear those crocodiles ticking, they go ticking around the world." - Major Minus "We are meeting for the first time can't you see? 7, 6, to 5, 4, 3! We are meeting for the first time singing this space symphony." - Moving to Mars "Light a fire, from a spark! Light a fire for you in my heart." - Charlie Brown Those are some that stick out for me. Not entirely sure if I got the Charlie Brown lyrics exactly right, but that's what he seems to be saying after listening to a couple different live versions.
August 12, 201114 yr I haven't found any lyrics worth mentioning tbh. .... huh? How on earth could that be?
August 12, 201114 yr .... huh? How on earth could that be? Very simply, none of them make me go "Wow, genius lyrics".
August 12, 201114 yr WAWAWAWA WATERFALL Really touches the deepest part of my soul. :laugh3::laugh3::laugh3::laugh3:
August 12, 201114 yr OP, Thanks for transcribing that! Yes its beautiful. And yes, I struggle with the idea that my life isn't mine and I'll be a bright red rose combusting (come busting?) the concrete are very beautiful
August 12, 201114 yr Examining this cover makes my head hurt. I gotta stop! I hate being colorblind. This is way too difficult! :confused:
August 12, 201114 yr Very simply, none of them make me go "Wow, genius lyrics". Gonna have to agree with ya on this one. :/
August 12, 201114 yr I'm a songwriter, and I have to say, I'm inspired more by Arctic Monkeys' Alex Turner than Chris Martin lyrically. But Chris Martin has written melodies that will be etched in my heart longer than any words will.
August 12, 201114 yr If we could float away, fly up to the surface and just start again, and lift off before trouble just erodes us in the rain, just erodes us in the rain, just erodes us it erodes us in the rain... <3
