Favorite Coldplay lyric?

Recommended Posts

The scientist used to do it for me.

 

I was just guessing at numbers and figures

Pulling your puzzles apart

Questions of science; science and progress

Do not speak as loud as my heart

 

Tell me you love me

Come back and haunt me

Oh and I rush to the start

Running in circles, chasing our tails

Coming back as we are

 

Nobody said it was easy

Oh it's such a shame for us to part

Nobody said it was easy

No one ever said it would be so hard

I'm going back to the start

I'm not an overly emotional person but and this is one of the few songs that can genuinely reduce me to tears.

 

But then I heard Violet Hill and holy marmite! Those lyrics read out like poetry. Every single line is beautiful and deep. It's one of my favorites now.

Viva la Vida has some beautiful lyrics as well imo.

 

Regrettably, I'm still a bit of a noob when it comes to Coldplay. I'd love to hear which set of lyrics you guys love best and expose myself to some more beautiful art :D

Might have to go

Where they don't know my name

Float all over the world

Just to see her again

And I won't show or feel any pain

Even though all my armor 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

Great thread :clap:

Aww beautiful lyrics but holy crap, what a song! All those textures and transitions and layers and Omg :bigcry: :dazzled:

-flails- :bliss:

 

How can one song take you make you feel so many emotions D:

It starts off in a melancholy fashion and then brings you to a place where you feel a bit infinite and finally leaves you feeling like the world is a freaking amazing place.

I just. I can't even :bigcry:

 

Thanks for introducing me to this absolute masterpiece, friend :dance:

A Message

 

My song is love

Love to the loveless shown

And it goes up

You don't have to be alone

 

Your heavy heart

Is made of stone

And it's so hard to see clearly...

You don't have to be on your own

 

And I'm not gonna take it back

And I'm not gonna say I don't mean that

You're the target that I'm aiming at

And I'll get that message home

 

My song is love

My song is love unknown

And I'm on fire for you clearly

You don't have to be alone

You don't have to be on your own

 

And I'm not gonna take it back

And I'm not gonna say I don't mean that

You're the target that I'm aiming at

And I'm nothing on my own

Got to get that message home

 

And I'm not gonna stand and wait

Not gonna leave it until it's much too late

On a platform, I'm gonna stand and say

That I'm nothing on my own

And I love you, please come home!

 

 

This song made me cry so many times... it's emotional and beautiful :')

Ugh it gets you right in the feels :bigcry:

I can't think of a single other band that connects with their audience on such an emotional level.

 

Chris's vocals on this song as well. Especially the way he sings 'And I love you, please come home!' </3

Fix You

When you try your best, but you don't succeed

When you get what you want but not what you need

When you try so hard, but you can't sleep

Stuck in reverse

And the tears come streaming down your face

When you lose something you can't replace

When you love someone, buy it goes to waste

Could it be worse?

 

Lights will guide you home

And ignite your bones

And I will try to fix you

 

And high up above or down below

When you're too in love to let it go

But if you never try you'll never know

Just what you're worth

 

Lights will guide you home

And ignite your bones

And I will try to fix you

 

Tears stream down your face

When you lose something you cannot replace

Tears stream down your and I

I promise you I will learn from my mistakes

Tears stream down your face and I

 

Lights will guide you home

And ignite your bones

And I will try to fix you

 

I love the way Chris sings this song,. It gives me goosebumps!

 

"Lights will guide you home and ignite your bones and I will try to fix you"

 

Cheers,

Up&Up

 

Fixing up a car to drive in it again, when you're in pain when you think you've had enough,

don't ever give up... Just believe in love...

Those lines help me staying positive in times when I'm feeling down :heart:

Thank you Coldplay.

The Scientist

Come up to meet you

Tell you I'm sorry

You don't know how lovely you are

I had to find you

Tell you I need you

Tell you I set you apart

 

Tell me your secrets

And ask me your questions

Oh, let's go back to the start

Running in circles; coming up tails

Heads on a science apart

 

Nobody said it was easy

It's such a shame for us to part

Nobody said it was easy

No one ever said it would be this hard

Oh take me back to the start

 

I was just guessing at numberspullingand figures

Puling your puzzles apart

Questions of science and progress

Do not speak as loud as my ♥

 

Tell me you love me

Come back and haunt me

Oh I rush to the start

Running in circles, chasing our tails

Coming back as we are

 

Nobody said it was easy

Oh it's such a shame for us to part

Nobody said it was easy

No one ever said it would be so hard

I'm going backto the start

 

I chose the song forthe same reason as Fix You.

 

"Lights will guide you home and ignite your bones and I will try to fix you"

I just thought about this again and even though it depends on my mood I think my favorite cp lyrics ever are "I know I'm dead on the surface but I am screaming underneath" from Amsterdam and the last few lines of Up&Up

"when you're in pain,

when you think you've had enough,

don't ever give up,

believe in love!"

Yellow

Look at the stars,

Look how they shine for you,

And everything you do,

Yeah, they were all yellow.

 

I came along,

I wrote a song for you,

And all the things you do,

And it was called "yellow".

 

So then I took my turn,

Oh what a thing to have done,

And it was all yellow.

 

Your skin,

Oh yeah your skin and bones,

Turn into,

Something Beautiful,

Do you know,

You know I love you so,

You know I love you so.

 

I swam across,

I jumped across for you,

Oh what a thing to do,

And it was all yellow

 

I drew a line,

I drew a line for you,

Oh what a thing to do,

And it was all yellow

 

Your skin,

Oh yeah your skin and bones,

Turn into,

Something Beautiful,

Do you know,

For you I'd bleed myself dry,

For you I'd bleed mysel dry.

 

It's true,

Look how they shine for you,

Look how they shine for you,

Look how they shine for,

Look how they shine for you,

Look how they shine for you,

Look how they shine.

 

Look at the stars,

Look how they shine for you,

And all the things that you do.

 

I really like this song and the way Chris sings it.

 

"Lights will guide you home and ignite your bones and I will try to fix you"

 

Cheers,

Right now ---

 

 

Prospekt's March/Poppyfields

 

Smoke is rising from the houses

People burying their dead

I ask somebody what the time is

But time doesn't matter to them yet

 

People talking without speaking

Trying to take what they can get

I ask you if you remember

Prospekt, how could I forget?

 

Drums, here it comes

Don't you wish that life can be as simple

As fish swimming round in a barrel?

When you've got the gun

 

Oh when I run, here it comes

We're just two little figures in a soup bowl

Trying to get to any kind of control

But I wasn't one

 

Now here I lie on my own in a separate sky

Here I lie on my own in a separate sky

I don't wanna die on my own here tonight

But here I lie on my own in a separate sky
