Connor!42! Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 After hearing the studio version, i think these are the actual lyrics :) I've updated these lyrics after reading the comments so they should be up to date. Thanks to everyone who commented for contributing to the lyrics :) Note: Please realise that these lyrics are only for the studio version, not for the live performances. Updated: 21 October, 2011 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Written in graffiti on a bridge in a park 'Do you ever get the feeling that you're missing the mark?' It's so cold, it's so cold It's so cold, it's so cold Written up in marker on a factory sign 'I struggle with the feeling that my life isn't mine' It's so cold, it's so cold It's so cold, it's so cold See the arrow they shot, trying to tear us apart Took the fire from my belly and the beat from my heart Still I won't let go Still I won't let go Of Youuuuu Ooooooo Cause you do, Oh you, use your heart as a weapon, and it hurts like heaven On every street and every car, every surface are names, And now the streets are ours and we're writing the same Don't let em take control, No we wont let em take control, Yes, I feel a little bit nervous, Yes I feel nervous and I cannot relax, How come they're out to get us? How come they're out when they don't know the facts? So on a concrete canvas under cover of dark, On a concrete canvas, I go making my mark, Armed with a spraycan soul, I'll be armed with a spraycan soul. Youuu Youuu Youuu Oooooo 'Cause you, use your Heart as a weapon, And it hurts like Heaven Woooh Woooh Yeah it's true, When you, Use your Heart as a weapon, It hurts like Heaven.

Kiame Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Am I hearing a "of" before the youuuu part. So it's like Still I won't let go, Still I won't let go, of youuuu That's what it sounds like to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor!42! Posted October 18, 2011 Author Share Posted October 18, 2011 Am I hearing a "of" before the youuuu part. So it's like Still I won't let go, Still I won't let go, of youuuu That's what it sounds like to me. yeah, i think you're right. I think i hear the first part of "of" and it does make sense. thanks :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hartroc Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Almost perfect. I'm pretty sure it's actually "at the streets' arising we're writing the same." Some of Coldplay's best lyrics though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor!42! Posted October 18, 2011 Author Share Posted October 18, 2011 ^^hmm, yeah, it's really hard to make out. I now think it's: "And now the streets arise and we're writing the same" but you could be right too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danielmoisescu Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 After many listenings, I figured out that it's "so cold, so cruel", not "so cold, so cold". Listen carefully and check it out :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jye91 Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 And at/now the streets arise and we're writing the same OR And at the streets arising we're writing the same . For this line, I hear: "And now the streets arise and we write in the sand" It doesn't rhyme with 'name' though so I'm probably wrong. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ostrich Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Maybe it's just me, but after multiple listenings, I'm hearing "spray can sword" rather than "spray can soul." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
periahdark Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 "streets are ours" makes so much more sense to me than Streets arise. I used to think it was streets arise but now I'm gonna go with streets are ours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor!42! Posted October 19, 2011 Author Share Posted October 19, 2011 "streets are ours" makes so much more sense to me than Streets arise. I used to think it was streets arise but now I'm gonna go with streets are ours. Yeah it definitely does make a bit more sense but i guess both "arise" and "ours" make sense.....i guess we'll just have to wait until the're posted on the CP site Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

panicked Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 You did so well transcribing! I hope you don't mind -I added/adjusted a couple lyrics from the lyric sheet in my Japanese copy: (I tried to bold them) After hearing the studio version, i think these are the actual lyrics :) Note: Please realise that these lyrics are only for the studio version, not for the live performances. Written in graffiti on a bridge in a park 'Do you ever get the feeling that you're missing the mark?'

How come they're out when they don't know the facts? So on a concrete canvas under cover of dark, On a concrete canvas, I'll go making my mark, Armed with a spraycan soul, I'll be armed with a spraycan soul. And you ooh ooh You ooh ooh 'Cause you use your heart as a weapon And it hurts like Heaven Woooh Woooh Yeah it's true, When you Use your heart as a weapon, And it hurts like Heaven.
