Whats your favourite lyric out of all the new songs?

[princessofchina:)]

Mine personally would have to be:
"Light a fire, light a spark
Light a fire, a flame in my heart" from Charlie Brown
Beautiful! :)

[Basilica]

"Written in graffiti on a bridge in a park
'Do you ever get the feeling that you're missing the mark?'

(...)

Written up in marker on a factory sign
'I struggle with the feeling that my life isn't mine'"

Simply brilliant!

[an angel]

Cathedrals in my heart.

[Juanma]

I LOVE this part, live sounds wonderfull.

[the_escapist]

What about this one:

You could have been the princess, I'd be a king
Could have had a castle and wore a ring
But, no-oooh, you got me-oooh-on

[JackZ]

I think its You let me go-oh-oh-ooooh

[Juanma]

[admnistramation]

I like the part about the concrete canvas, especially how Chris sings it.

And then...

IF WE COULD FLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTT AWAYYYYY

It just melts me. :dazzled:

[Drew42LP5]

"I got my right side fighting while my left hides under the chair" - Major Minus

[KellieP]

So you can hurt,
hurt me bad,
but I still I raise the flag.

(THOSE LINES ARE SO TRUE)

[Technicolor Liver]

"And bring back the water your ships rolled in, In my heart you left a home..." :awesome:

[princessofchina:)]

What about this one:

You could have been the princess, I'd be a king

Now thats just stuck in my head!!!! :smug:

[MosesTheMarshmallow]

THIS. That's one of my favourite moments in any song. It melts my heart. UATW is just.... :smug:

YEAH!

Both HLH and Charlie Brown have spotlessly great lyrics now that I hear them all. :lol:

I stole a key,
I took a car downtown,
To where the lost boys meet,
I took what they offered me,
To set me free. (>^__^)>

[periahdark]

Both of these are my favourites. Along with:

And if we could float away, fly up to the surface and just start again and lift up before trouble just erodes of in the rain.
&
You could have been a princess, I'd be a king. You could had a castle and wore a ring but no, you let me go.
&
You could them climbing the stairs. I got my right side fighting while my left hides under the chairs.

Edit: Oh, and I forgot "In my heart you left a hole" & "I'd rather be a comma than a full stop. Maybe I'm in the black. Maybe I'm on my knees. Maybe I'm in the gap between the two trapezes."

[ticking_clocks]

"and lift off before troubles just erode us in the rain" - UATW. That song is just filled with great lyrics, and the way Chris sings that part, amazing.

[Hartroc]

The best lyric of any of the new songs is easily from Charlie Brown;

"My scarecrow dreams
When they smash my heart into smithereens
I'll be a bright red rose combusting the concrete
Be a cartoon heart
Light a fire, light a spark
Light a fire, a flame in my heart
We'll run wild
We'll be glowing in the dark"

[Kroket]

Both of these are my favourites. Along with:

And if we could float away, fly up to the surface and just start again and lift up before trouble just erodes of in the rain.
This my absolute fave, I just love that line and the song

[Major_Love]

In general I appreciate the new lyrics very much and in every new song there are some little parts which are genius in my opinion. Most of them are named but I want to admit the line:

As we saw...ohoh...this light, I swear you, emerge blinking into to tell me it's allright.

[foxeh]

"When they smash my Heart into smithereens
I'll be a bright red rose combusting the concrete"

Love that one.

[Phoebeo]

Theese are my favorites :wacky:

''And I heard it on the radio that one day we'll be living in the stars
And I heard it on a TV show that somewhere up above and in my heart

They'll be tearing us apart, maybe moving us to mars
Past the satellites and stars, maybe moving us to mars
We won't see the earth again in these seconds just remain unchanged''

''Light a fire from a spark
Light a fire, a flame in my heart
We’ll run wild
We’ll be glowing in the dark''

And

''And if we could float away
Fly up to the surface and just start again
And lift off before trouble just erodes us in the rain
Just erodes us in the rain
Just erodes us, just erodes us in the rain''



:dazzled:

[estein219]

I really like the "light a fire" part in Charlie Brown and the "raise the flag" part in Teardrop. Both are just great moments the way they are built up to.

[amir.mohit]

we are meeting for the first time, singing this space symphonyyyEEEy

MTM

[jeremyy]

I heard it on the radio that one day we'll be living in the stars.

Moving to Mars

[Abracadabra]

Through chaos as it swirls,
it's just us against the world.

[Wyrd]

Certainly not the lyrics of Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall :(

[howyousawtheworld]

The lyrics of ETIAW just do not fit at all. When they released the first part of the lyrics bit by bit I thought 'ok - yeah that's fine' but I was not expecting them to be sung in a dance beat manner!

I think the best lyrics go to Charlie Brown

'my scarecrow dreams
when they smashed my heart into smithereens
I'll be a bright red rose combusting the concrete'

I like this from MTM as well

'Somewhere up above the stars
the wreckage of a universe floats by'

[lutzno]

cannot believe no one has said this:

It's true
When you
Use your heart as a weapon
It hurts like heaven

[The Final Track]

The best lyric of any of the new songs is easily from Charlie Brown;

"My scarecrow dreams
When they smash my heart into smithereens
I'll be a bright red rose combusting the concrete
Be a cartoon heart
Light a fire, light a spark
Light a fire, a flame in my heart
We'll run wild
We'll be glowing in the dark"

Will have to agree with this.

[coldplayfan_115]

^^Same :heart:

[Strawberry Swinger]

Like a river to a raindrop I lost a friend... That song is perfect btw.

[Bluejay]

I have many, but my favorite one is in my signature :wacky:. That little phrase is my philosophy :cheesy:

[nick311]

Cathedrals in my heart.

I'd have to agree, honey.

[rainplay]

I really like the lyric : "in my heart she left a hole" From UATW.

[MosesTheMarshmallow]

I like how this thread shows the glaring deficiencies in lyrical consistency among the new songs. :p

[coldplay♪♫♪]

"We are meeting for the first time, can't you see
76543"
moving to mars
This line stuck in my head: P

[wangmaster]

and all the kids they dance,
all the kids all night,
until monday morning
feels another life

i turn the music up,
i'm on a roll this time
and heaven is in sight

works brilliantly with the buildup.

[86Timewarp]

And only seconds just remain,
Unchanged

[Strawberry Swinger]

to me all of ETIAW is awful, lyrically

[Zj23]

What about this one:

You could have been the princess, I'd be a king
Could have had a castle and wore a ring
But, no-oooh, you got me-oooh-on

Haha how in the world did you decipher those lyrics!? I can hardly make any words out of that live version of POC, the quality isnt that great. :)

[Steph589]

Like a river to a raindrop I lost a friend... That song is perfect btw.

:nod:

[ColdplayingfromKansas]

Oh boy :P

'Hear those crocodiles ticking round the world
I hear those crocodiles ticking, you go ticking round the world'

'This tightrope that I'm walking just sways and ties
The devil as he's talking with those angel's eyes
And I just wanna be there when the lightning strikes
And the saints go marching in'

'My scarecrow dreams
When they smash my heart into smithereens
I'll be a bright red rose combusting the concrete'

. . . And I'll probably think of more later :awesome:

[Malcolm-Edge]

Agree that the second verse to Charlie Brown.

I just love the way they sing it live.

[Coldplayer1317]

to me all of ETIAW is awful, lyrically

I understand ETIAW 100% Its about people that get rejected, that sufer everyday , in school , bullying, racism, when you feel alone, that when you are alone you still have music , see:


As I understand it, it has a GREAT message

I TURN THE MUSIC UP, I GOT MY RECORDS ON
I SHUT THE WORLD OUTSIDE UNTIL THE LIGHTS COME ON
MAYBE THE STREETS ALIGHT, MAYBE THE TREES ARE GONE
I FEEL MY HEART START BEATING TO MY FAVOURITE SONG

You can hear music, forget everything that happens in the world, even when there is no hope (trees are gone) and just think and listen to your music and enter to a diferent world for a while

AND ALL THE KIDS THEY DANCE, ALL THE KIDS ALL NIGHT
UNTIL MONDAY MORNING FEELS ANOTHER LIFE
I TURN THE MUSIC UP
I'M ON A ROLL THIS TIME
AND HEAVEN IS IN SIGHT

All the kids are having fun outside, all night, but you don't care, they have hurt you, but you feel good because of the music , you are in a roll, you are okay with it.


I TURN THE MUSIC UP, I GOT MY RECORDS ON
FROM UNDERNEATH THE RUBBLE SING A REBEL SONG
DON'T WANT TO SEE ANOTHER GENERATION DROP
I'D RATHER BE A COMMA THAN A FULL STOP

Here is where you begin to love your life, you realize you would rather be dying than die, you enjoy your music and you begin to feel better , you get yourself into your own world inside your heart

MAYBE I'M IN THE BLACK, MAYBE I'M ON MY KNEES
MAYBE I'M IN THE GAP BETWEEN THE TWO TRAPEZES
BUT MY HEART IS BEATING AND MY PULSES START
CATHEDRALS IN MY HEART

"cathedrals in my heart" means that you are now in your own world, in your heart (chris is in his heart when in the dark room scene) everything looks beautiful, everything is perfect and you realize the world is beautiful, and crying is not the solution to your problems

AND WE SAW OH THIS LIGHT I SWEAR YOU, EMERGE BLINKING INTO
TO TELL ME IT'S ALRIGHT
AS WE SOAR WALLS, EVERY SIREN IS A SYMPHONY

AND EVERY TEAR'S A WATERFALL
IS A WATERFALL
OH
IS A WATERFALL
OH OH OH
IS A IS A WATERFALL
EVERY TEAR
IS A WATERFALL
OH OH OH

Listening to music, enjoying life, you are inside your dream world in your heart, and in your world, every teardrop is a waterfall

SO YOU CAN HURT, HURT ME BAD
BUT STILL I'LL RAISE THE FLAG

Now you know that even when the world its at its worst, and all the people seem to be against you (us against the world) you can still be victorious and "raise the flag"

OH
IT WAS A WA WA WA WA WA-ATERFALL
A WA WA WA WA WA-ATERFALL

EVERY TEAR
EVERY TEAR
EVERY TEARDROP IS A WATERFALL

EVERY TEAR
EVERY TEAR
EVERY TEARDROP IS A WATERFALL

Enjoying the beautiful images inside your heart, inside your world... where...every teardrop is a waterfall

Incredible how a simple song can change your world

I love ETIAW :D

I love ETIAW :D

I think you're looking way too hard. There's nothing in that song except for the lyrics on their own. Nobody is getting rejected or anything. "Cathedrals in my heart" is just a cheesy Chris Martin line.

[ColdplayingfromKansas]

^ :thinking:

[Coldplayer1317]

So you say they don't mean anything? You have to think , I could have said ETIAW has non sense lyrics, but what I said makes perfect sense for me , if it doesn't for you and you want to thing they are random words then it's okay, but people have to be more open minded

[Coldplayer1317]

I didn't say I don't understand it,just don't like it :)

Haha that's okay , everyone has different tastes :)

[Fix42YellowClocks]

There's so many amazing lyrics it's hard to choose. Every single one has lyrics that just plain rock, even though ETIAW does drag in places. It's really incredible! :D So stokedddd for this album, finding out the tracklist and title, just everything. Loving life thanks to Coldplay!!!

edit: that was probably a cop out. I'll try my hardest to pick a definite one. Though it is kinda hard because it seems the guys are still tweaking the lyrics, you can sort of tell between Rock am Ring and the latest few concerts some of the lyrics sound a bit different.

[Fix42YellowClocks]

Eight to nine, nine to ten
We are meeting for the first time- we might never meet again
You and me
We are meeting for the first time can't you see?
Seven, six, five, four, three
We are meeting for the first time, singing this space symphony

:D I really really really love this part of Moving to Mars so I'll have to choose this. Out of all of the new lyrics it's been the hardest to get out of my head and what I find myself singing the most out of the new stuff by a good margin. Plus, I couldn't stop humming it/singing it under my breath all graduation day and so it has a special intrinsic meaning/significance to me! [[[: I could give a whole explanation but of how I connected it but I'll save you the zzzz's. haha

[WeddingDom]

"Maybe I'm in the black, maybe I'm on my knees

When you use your heart as a weapon
And it hurts like heaven" :dazzled:

"They got one eye watching you
One eye on what you do
So be careful cause nothing they say is true

It's jus-ust-us against the world
And we just got to turn up to be heard" :sunny:

"And I heard it on the radio that
One day we'll be living in the stars

Agreed :sunny:

We are meeting for the first time singin' this space symphony.

:pleased:

[Blue Nails]

I really love all the new lyrics. Maybe apart from ETIAW (but I do like the trapezes bit). It's so hard to choose, and it changes all the time!

But I somehow have a huge weak spot for Chris doing stutters, so right now I would say:
'no d, -don't believe a word
its jus-ust-us against the world
and we just got to turn up to be heard
hear the crocodiles ticking round the world
hear the crocodiles ticking, they go ticking round the world'
And then that GUITAR :dazzled:

[Fix42YellowClocks]

This line would make so much more sense if "river" and "raindrop" switched places. :inquisitive:

I completely agree and I'm glad you pointed this out. I've been thinking the same thing for some time now but I wasn't sure if it was just me or what. Hopefully they'll change it. It would sound a lot better; it's still a great song regardless though. [:

[kittybitty]

I agree with this as well, since the raindrop would be disappearing into the river. Maybe Chris just thought it flowed better the other way.

[Fix42YellowClocks]

I agree with this as well, since the raindrop would be disappearing into the river. Maybe Chris just thought it flowed better the other way.

That's possible. But you know, now that I think about it- it really could make sense. :idea2: Because the raindrop loses the river when it's evaporated back out from it and up into the atmosphere to make clouds. You know?

[kittybitty]

Or maybe he was explaining the relationship of the river to the raindrop, you know--like a bone to a dog.

[princessofchina:)]

That would make sense!

[Brent]

Like a river to a raindrop, I lost a friend.

It's talking about how many raindrops get lost when they fall into the river, and when you look at it from the raindrop's perspective, it's sad.

Makes sense to me.

I love most of Hurts Like Heaven, in particular:

"How come they're out to get us?
How come they're out when they don't know the facts?"

[rafaelchampion]

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 a 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.

I just get chills when I listen to this :D

[Cleggy]

I like
I'm coming 'round to get us/I'm coming 'round when they don't know the facts from Hurts Like Heaven.

When I first heard it I thought it was a reference to the Viva La Vida Satriani lawsuit i.e Satriani had no proof that Coldplay ripped him off, he didn't know the facts. It's probably not to do with that but that was my first impression.

I actually like this version of the lyrics now that you put it that way. Before I didn't care for it. But I still def. prefer the other version better because it fits the whole "nervous" and "can't relax" theme in the two lines preceding. 'How come they're out to get us?/How come they're out when they don't know the facts?' It's a very paranoid-infused line and I think it just works really well. Plus I know whenever I'm really nervous I constantly ask questions, whether in my head or out loud. Why is this person doing this? Why are they doing that? And so on. Chris may not be the best lyricist in the world. But I think Hurts Like Heaven is some pretty great stuff as far as Coldplay goes. His lyrics paint the situation well- especially during the stanza in question. I always feel like I'm living his feelings/concerns during that part.

Firstly, since when do lyrics need to make sense? Secondly, both 'I'm' and 'how come' have been sung at the festivals. 'How come' sounds better but nobody can be sure on what the official lyrics are until it's released on an album and the lyrics get put on coldplay.com

[Abracadabra]

I really like the reference to a biblical story of Daniel in 'Us against the World', if only the first part of that verse would get clearer as soon as possible.

[Hartroc]

Like a river to a raindrop, I lost a friend.

It's talking about how many raindrops get lost when they fall into the river, and when you look at it from the raindrop's perspective, it's sad.

Makes sense to me.

I know that's what it's trying to say, but the way is prased...to lose a river to a raindrop would imply that the raindrop itself absorbed the river, thus making it impossible to find. Obviously, you can't exactly lose a full-sized river inside a typical raindrop. No raindrop is quite that big. :lol: HOWEVER, you could lose a raindrop to a river...once that little droplet of water hits the surface of the river, you won't be finding it again...ever.

ughhh just going through this post is bad for me...i keep getting excited by the sheer awesomeness of most of these new lyrics. QUICK. i need a time turner.

anyone?

My favourite lyrics are the solo parts by Jonny ;D. Just jokking,

I turn the music up,
I got my records On,
I Shut the world Outside
Until the lights came on! :thumbsup:

They got one oye on the road and one on... :rolleyes:


So on concrete canvas under cover of dark
Concrete canvas, I'll go making my mark
Armed with a spray can soul
I'll be armed with a spray can soul ;D


We'll run wild,
We'll be glowing in the dark :cool:

Fly up to the surface
And just start again
And lift off before trouble just erodes us in the rain
Just erodes us in the rain
Just erodes us, erodes us in the rain:dozey:

BEST OF ALL:

POC

Once upon a time you fell apart
You're holding me in your hands, (…)
I saved my heart, ohohow
Ohowow

You could have been the princess, I'd be a king
Could have had a castle and wore a ring
But, no-oooh, you got me-oooh-on


Hope that POC be in the new album, I haven't listened enough of this beautiful song.

[Connor!42!]

"they'll be tearing us apaaaaaart, maybe moving us to maarrrrrrs" :)

and

"Armed with a spray can soul, i'll be armed with a spray can soul"

[Mister MX]

Any of UatW, really, but I particularly love the lines in my signature atm.

"Like a River to a Raindrop, I Lost a Friend
...
Through chaos as it swirls, it's just us against the world"

I like the bit about the devil too :D

[Mark]

The wreckage of a universe floats by.

[Cheese Nip 2]

I like Hurts Like Heaven especially:

Armed with a spray can soul
i'll be armed with a spray can soul

There's also something very warm about UATW

Also this:

Light a fire, light a spark
Light a fire, a flame in my heart
We'll run wild oh
We'll be glowing in the dark

[rafaelchampion]

Hurts Like Heaven itself deserves the Grammy.
THE END

- Armed with a spray can soul
I'll be armed with a spray can soul.
- Like a river to a raindrop I lost a friend.
- Somewhere up above my heart, a tiny little seed is sown, government is overthrown.

Oh man those dp's are killing me, how do I delete them?

[matti]

And if we could float away
fly up to the surface and just start again
And lift off before trouble just erodes us in the rain...

Errr this is a hard one. My favourite song is ETIAW but lyrically I love Charlie Brown!
I have to say all of Charlie Brown, especially the "Light a fire" part!

"armed with a spray can soul." and if the album was called 'spray can soul' that would just be awesome.

[InATelescopeLens]

All of Hurts Like Heaven is a lyrical orgasm!!!

Written in a marker on a factory sign, I struggle with the feeling that my life isn't mine! So cold, so cold. So Cold, so cold!

...On a concrete canvas and a glow in the dark, concrete canvas I will make you a mark Armed with a spray can soul I'll be armed with a spray can soul! youuuu!!!!!! Ooooooo!!!

Relax, people. :|

BUT OH GOD YESSSS!!

[Major_Love]

The LP5 era is lyrically on top with AROBTTH. Beautiful lines (except most of ETIAW which I still love). ;)

[hayachris]

Light a fire, light a spark
Light a fire, a flame in my heart…

Me too… :)
