I think its "And I won't show or fear, any pain".

 

 

I'm pretty sure its "or"

 

Not sure if its fear or feel though....either way its beautiful.

Hello!

 

UP WITH THE BIRDS (from the lyric sheet in my Japanese copy)

 

The birds they sang, break of day

Start again I hear them say

It's so hard to just walk away

 

The birds they sang, all a choir

Start again, a little higher

It's a spark in a sea of grey

 

The sky is blue, dream that lie til it's true

Then taking back the punch I threw

My arms turn wings oh those clumsy things

Send me up to that wonderful world

And then I'm up with the birds

 

Send me up to that wonderful world

And then I'm up with the birds

 

Might have to go where they don't know my name

Float all over the world just to see her again

But I won't show or feel any pain

Even though all my armour might rust in the rain

A simple plot, but I know one day

Good things are coming our way

Oh yeAH!

I agree with the first few threads, feel free correct me if i'm wrong though.

 

A simple plot

But, I know one thing,

Good things are coming our way

I love the lyrics. Think this is my fave song on the album

That's what I thought it was.

"But I won't show or feel any pain"

 

It would make more sense if it would be "But i won't show or fear any Pain".

If you won't feel Pain why bothering with not showing?

Okay, I love this song too but I can't hear the female voice everybody has been talking about?

:embarrassed:

"My arms turn wings" listen to that.

Thanks, I can hear something but it's next to nothing.

I always thought Will was doing the back vocals.

That's too little to be considered a feature.

I bet it is Will. Sometimes he can sound....uh...womanly....in a good way lol.

It's a female, not Will. The boys have said that there was another singer (female) singing on one of their songs so I'm guessing this is it. 'Cause I don't hear any other female on the record beside PoC and here.

 

It's quite clear when you have earphones on and the volume turned up. Very obvious it isn't Will.

THIS! Totally right!

This makes me think of when The Pierces said back in April that they worked on a song with the boys! I wonder what it was. This is a question for the Oracle!!

The official lyrics from Coldplay.com:

 

The birds they sang, break of day

'Start again' I hear them say

It's so hard to just walk away

 

The birds they sang, all a choir

'Start again', a little higher

It's a spark in a sea of grey

 

The sky is blue, dream that lie 'til it's true

Then taking back the punch I threw

My arms turn wings oh those clumsy things

 

Send me up to that wonderful world

And then I'm up with the birds

 

Might have to go where they don't know my name

Float all over the world just to see her again

But I won't show or feel any pain

Even though all my armour might rust in the rain

A simple plot, but I know one day

Good things are coming our way

A simple plot, but I know one day

Good things are coming our way

Oh yeah!

Isn't it just "But I won't show I feel any pain"?

 

I think you're over complicating it.

 

"Show or feel" doesn't make sense because you're not going to show pain if you don't feel it anyway. Maybe I'm just stupid. If they say they're the official lyrics, they must right.

They make perfect sense to me. Anyway why are you nitpicking over such a tiny detail? Just forget it and enjoy the song! :P
