Prospector Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Don't think that we can seriously consider the lyrics. We have to see them in context with the song and with the storyline behind. Yes, I think you're right, it's a concept album so let's wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juanif94 Posted September 16, 2011 Author Share Posted September 16, 2011 It would be nice then to create a thread when the album comes out and put all the lyrics of the songs together so we can read the story ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiotFever Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 I think they are referring "slow down" to the "up in flames" they slow the Flames down with water. us against the world reference: slooooooooooooooow it down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgk Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 So it's over This time I know it's gone Salt water You tasted it too long I put it on Once it starts Up in flames Up in flames Up in flames We have slowed way down So it's over As time flyin' on This time I know your song Stop and slowed way down Stop and slowed way down Up in flames Up in flames Up in flames We have slowed way down Up in flames Up in flames Up in flames We have slowed way down Oh, we have slowed way down Can we pour some water on...? Could this verse be something like this: So it's over As time flyin on This time I know no song Can stop its slowly burn Can stop its slowly burn Just what I hear when I listen, I know if this is correct "slowly" doesn't really fit and should just be "slow" but it really sounds like it is what he says if you listen to this recording...[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q60WdWLAUtU&feature=related]Up in Flames Coldplay - Live Debut 09/15/2011 ACL Taping - YouTube[/ame] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxeh Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 Could this verse be something like this: So it's over As time flyin on This time I know no song Can stop its slowly burn Can stop its slowly burn Just what I hear when I listen, I know if this is correct "slowly" doesn't really fit and should just be "slow" but it really sounds like it is what he says if you listen to this recording...Up in Flames Coldplay - Live Debut 09/15/2011 ACL Taping - YouTube I think i already figured the Lyrics out. So it's over, This time I know it's gone, It's all over..., You tasted it too long, pour it on, (?) Once it starts... Up in flames, Up in flames, Up in flames, We have slowed it down... So it's over, It's time flying on, This time I know your song/son, Stop and slow it down, Stop and slow it down... Up in flames, Up in flames, Up in flames, We have slowed it down..., Up in flames, Up in flames, Up in flames, Oh...slow it down, Oh, slow it down.. Could we pour some water on?

jgk Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 I am actually thinking that the verse could be like this: So it's over As time flyin' on This time I know no song Can stop its lonely burn Can stop its lonely burn The "can" is really subtle. Let me know what you all think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zj23 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 The last lyric sounds like "You're impossible to love." Edit: Nvm, i hear pour some water on now. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reborn Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 I think this could be the second verse: So it's over It's time to flying on This time I know no song Can stop it slowing down Can stop it slowing down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgk Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 I think this could be the second verse: So it's over It's time to flying on This time I know no song Can stop it slowing down Can stop it slowing down If you listen closely you can hear that he says burn, not down. Also I feel like everyone thinks these lyrics are so bad because everyone has them wrong on here, making them not really make any sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenjelly13 Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 This is what i hear the lyrics as, not saying they're correct folks!!! So it's over, This time I know it's gone, Salt water there, You tasted it to long. Only know i'm wrong, Once it stung. Up in flames, Up in flames, Up in flames, We have slowly died. So it's over, It's time flying on, This time I know no song, Can stop it slowly burn, Can stop it slowly burn. Up in flames, Up in flames, Up in flames, We have slowly died, Up in flames, Up in flames, Up in flames, We have slowly died, We have slowly died. Can we pour some oil around... and here is a complimentary smiley :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have thought it was probably "died" since the first time i heard it, glad someone else hears it too. In the second verse after "This time I know no song" I still really feel like it is "Can stop it's lonely burn.....Can stop it's lonely burn." It sounds right to me, plus it seems to be the only thing that makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nathondetroit Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 This what I've been hearing: So it's over, this time I know it's gone Salt water, you've tasted it too long Would you know why I'm wrong Once it stung Up in Flames, Up in Flames Up in Flames We have slowly burned So it's over, this time we're fly'n on This time I know no song can stop it slowly burn can stop it slowly burn Up in Flames, Up in Flames Up in Flames We have slowly burned Up in Flames, Up in Flames Up in Flames Oh we have slowly burned Oh we have slowly burned Can we pour some water on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiame Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 I'm fairly confident these are the lyrics: So it's over, This time I know it's gone. Salt water. You tasted it too long. Pour it on my heart. Once it stung. Up in Flames Up in Flames Up in flames We have slowly burned. So it's over This time flying on This time I know your song Stop and slowly burn. Stop and slowly burn. Up in flames Up in flames Up in flames We have slowly burned Up in flames Up in flames Up in flames Oh, we have slowly burned. Oh, we have slowly burned. Can we pour some water on?

al200 Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 possibly 'this time i know your sunk'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twitchy517 Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I think the phrase might be, "we have slowly gone." Especially since the saying is usually going up in flames, this makes sense to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miha Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 This is the correct version I think. I'm not even English and yet I hear this: So it's over, This time I know it's gone. Salt water. You tasted it too long. I only know why I'm wrong. Now I know it's gone. Up in Flames Up in Flames Up in Flames We have slowly gone. So it's over This time you're flying on This time I know no song could stop it slowly burn. could stop it slowly burn. Up in flames Up in flames Up in flames We have slowly gone. Up in flames Up in flames Up in flames Oh, we have slowly gone. Oh, we have slowly gone. Can we pour some water on? Almost 100% it's the right interpretation!

Now I know it's gone. Up in Flames Up in Flames Up in Flames We have slowly gone. So it's over This time you're flying on This time I know no Sun could stop it slowly burn. could stop it slowly burn. Up in flames Up in flames Up in flames We have slowly gone. Up in flames Up in flames Up in flames Oh, we have slowly gone. Oh, we have slowly gone. Can we pour some water on?

panicked Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 You did well! The second "So it's over' bit is slightly different according to the lyric sheet in my Japanese copy: So it's over This time you're flying on This time I know no song Can stop its lonely burn Can stop it slowly going Up In Flames etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris594 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Lyrics from the Japanese release lyric booklet: So it's over This time I know it's gone Salt water Tasted it too long I only know I'm wrong Now I know its gone Up in flames Up in flames Up in flames We have slowly gone So it's over This time you're flying on This time I know no song Can stop its lonely burn Can stop it slowly going Up in flames Up in flames Up in flames We have slowly gone Up in flames Up in flames Up in flames We have slowly gone Oh, We have slowly gone Can we pour some water on?
