42JTR Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 I'm pretty sure it's "from MY shipwerck i heard a call" ????? He definetely says that. Although it makes no sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hartroc Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 He definetely says that. Although it makes no sense. Makes more sense than from a shipwreck. The ship is a metaphor for his life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James. Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Upon listening to the song a few more times, this my interpretation of the lyrics: And if I lost the map If I lost it all Or fell into the trap And she'd go "When you're tired of racing And you find you never left the start Come on, baby Don't let it break your heart" Though heavily we bled Still on we crawled Tried to catch a cannonball And so, running tired Oh, through my veins it's flowing From my shipwreck I heard a call And she said "When you're tired of aiming your arrows Still you never hit the mark Oh, even if your aims are shadows Still we're never gonna part, aah, aah Come on, baby Don't let it break your heart" Oh, oh oh, oh oh Don't let it break your heart Oh, oh oh, oh oh Don't let it break your heart Don't let it break your heart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hartroc Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 I'm positive it's "burning." Not sure about the next word though, sounds like "tide" to me but that doesn't make sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James. Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 This seems spot on. Thanks :D I'm still not 100% sure about "even if your aims are shadows" and I think it might be "heard her call" rather than "heard a call" but other than that I'm sure these are the lyrics.

panicked Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 Here are the lyrics as printed in my Japanese copy: (I will try to update as many lyric threads as I can) DLITBYH And if I lost the map If I lost it all Or fell into the trap Then she'd call "When you're tired of racing And you find you never left the start Come on baby Don't let it break your heart" Though we heavily bled Still on we crawl Try to catch a cannonball And a slowly burning tide Through my veins is flowing From my shipwreck I heard her call "When you're feeling tired of racing Still you never hit the mark Even in your rain and shadows Still we're never going to part Come on baby Don't let it break your heart" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes even printed booklet lyrics are wrong. I've seen it happen before. We will have to wait till Coldplay post the official lyrics on the recordings section of the site.

Coldplay770 Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 I don't think it says "slowly burning tide". I think it says " and a soul burning tide". I think that would make more sense. "And a soul burning tide. Through my veins it's flowing". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
