Fix42YellowClocks Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 It's too hard to choose. Us Against the World is a lyrical masterpiece in it's entirety. I'd go as far as to say it contends for the best Coldplay song (lyrically) ever. Too many good lines to quote in it, I'd have to quote the whole song honestly. Up with the Birds is up there lyrically as well imo. Chris has these flashes of absolute lyrical brilliance every one in awhile. The Scientist and Viva la Vida are great examples.

R0Y Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 A simple plot But I know one day Good things are coming our way Arguably the best lyrics in the album <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fix42YellowClocks Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 And with UATW I really like how he goes 'sing....' like the days of Parachutes. And there's no ooh ooh ooh's like a lot of the others on MX. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ticking_clocks Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 "Lift off this blindfold let me see again" "The arrow they shot trying to tear us apart" "Can we pour some water on?" "It's a spark in a sea of grey" "Para para paradise" "lalalalalala" Kidding on the last two:P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squish92 Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 A tie between the first/second line of the album and the last line. "Written in graffiti on a bridge in a park: Do you ever get the feeling that you're missing the mark?" or "Written up in marker on a factory sign: I struggle with the feeling that my life isn't mine." "But I know one thing....Good things are coming our way." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimBou Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 ..and lift off before trouble just erodes us in the rain, just erodes us in the rain, just erodes us and see roses in the rain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nagromathon Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 I also love "And if we could just float away, fly up to the surface, and just start again, and lift off before trouble " Evertime I hear this I think of the double meaning it could have in the band's point of view. Think about it. :) And I totally enjoy lyrics in UATW. Especially Will's lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
