Up&Up - Coldplay

fixing up a car to drive in it again
searching for the water hoping for the rain
up and up, up and up
down upon the canvas, working meal to meal
waiting for a chance to pick your orange field
up and up, up and up
see a pearl form, a diamond in the rough
see a bird soaring high above the flood
it’s in your blood, it’s in your blood
underneath the storm an umbrella is saying
sitting with the poison takes away the pain
up and up, up and up it’s saying

we’re going to get it get it together right now
going to get it get it together somehow
going to get it get it together and flower
oh oh oh oh oh oh
we’re going to get it get it together I know
going to get it get it together and flow
going to get it get it together and go
up and up and up

lying in the gutter, aiming for the moon
trying to empty out the ocean with a spoon
up and up, up and up
how come people suffer how come people part
how come people struggle how come people break your heart
break your heart
yes I want to grow yes I want to feel
yes I want to know show me how to heal it up
heal it up
see the forest there in every seed
angels in the marble waiting to be freed
just need love just need love
when the going is rough saying

we’re going to get it get it together right now
going to get it get it together somehow
going to get it get it together and flower
oh oh oh oh oh oh
we’re going to get it get it together I know
going to get it get it together and flow
going to get it get it together and go
up and up and up

and you can say what is, or fight for it
close your mind or take a risk
you can say it’s mine and clench your fist
or see each sunrise as a gift

we’re going to get it get it together right now
going to get it get it together somehow
going to get it get it together and flower
oh oh oh oh oh oh
we’re going to get it get it together I know
going to get it get it together and flow
going to get it get it together and go
up and up and up

we’re going to get it get it together right now
going to get it get it together somehow
going to get it get it together and flower
oh oh oh oh oh oh
we’re going to get it get it together I know
going to get it get it together and flow
going to get it get it together and go

up and up and up

oh-oh oh, oh-oh oh oh oh oh

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
don’t ever give up

Amazing Day - Coldplay

We sat on a roof, named every star
shared every bruise and showed every scar
hope has its proof put your hand in mine
Life has a beautiful crazy design

and time seemed to say
Forget the world and its weight
And here I just want to stay
Amazing day amazing day

We sat on a roof, named every star
you showed me a place where you can be what you are

And the view, the whole Milky Way
In your eyes, I drifted away
And in your arms I just want to sway
Amazing day amazing day
Amazing day amazing day

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oooh

and I asked
Can the Birds in poetry chime
can there be breaks in the chaos sometimes
oh thanks God, must have heard when I prayed
cause now I always want to feel this way
Amazing day, amazing day
Amazing day, amazing day
Yeah, today

Army Of One - Coldplay

Been around the world
The wonders to view
Been around the world
Looking for someone like you
Pyramids try
Babylon too
But the beautifullest treasures lie in the deepest blue

So I never say die
Aim never untrue
I’m never so high as when I’m with you
And there isn’t a fire that I wouldn’t walk through
My army of one is gonna fight for you

Been around the world
The universe too
I’ve been around flying, baby
It’s nothing I wouldn’t do
Tanzaku stars
Lasso the moon
And be standing there beside you right
When the storm comes through

Cause I never say die
Aim never untrue
Never so high as when I’m with you
And there isn’t a fire
That I wouldn’t walk through
My army of one is gonna fight for you
My army of one is gonna fall for you, yeah

Cause you reign
All cause you reign
All cause you reign
My army of one is gonna call it through
Saying my heart is my gun, army of one
Yeah my heart is my gun, army of one
It’s my only weapon, army of one
Saying my heart is my gun, army of one

Kaleidoscope - Coldplay

this being human is a guest house
every morning a new arrival
a joy, a depression, a meanness
some momentary awareness comes
as an unexpected visitor

welcome and entertain them all!

be grateful for whoever comes
because each has been sent
as a guide

Fun - Coldplay

I know it’s over before she says
I know the falls that the water face
I know it’s over
An ocean awaits for a storm
The sun on snow, rivers in rain
Crystal ball can foresee a change
And I know it’s over, a parting of ways
And it’s done
But didn’t we have fun
Don’t say it was all a waste
Didn’t we have fun
Oh ah ooh ooh ooh

From the top of the world
The top of the waves
We said forever, forever always
We could have been lost
We would have been saved
Oh ah, ooh ooh ooh
Now we’re stopping the world
stopping its spin
but come on don’t give up don’t say we give in
Don’t say it’s over
Don’t say we’re done
Ah didn’t we have fun

I know it’s over
Before she says
‘Know someone else has taken your place’
‘I know it’s over’
Icarus says to the sun
The Sword sinks in
Lightning strikes
And two force, two forces collide
And fight til it’s over
Fight til it’s done
Oh oh oh oh oh
But didn’t we have fun
Don’t say it was all a waste
Didn’t we have fun
Oh ah ooh ooh ooh

From the top of the world
The top of the waves
We said forever, forever always
We could have been lost,
We would have been saved
Oh AH ah ah ah
Now we’re stopping the world
Stopping in its tracks but
Nothing’s too broken to find a way back
So before it’s over
Before you run
Ah ah
Didn’t we have fun

Cause you and me we were always meant to
Always meant to be
We were always meant to always meant to

You and me we were always meant to
Always meant to be

Wooh ooh ooh ooh oo ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
oh oh didn’t we have fun

But then
Maybe we could again

Adventure Of A Lifetime - Coldplay

turn your magic on
Umi she’d say
everything you want’s a dream away
and we are legends every day
that’s what she told me

turn your magic on,
to me she’d say
everything you want’s a dream away
under this pressure under this weight
we are diamonds

now I feel my heart beating
I feel my heart underneath my skin
and I feel my heart beating
oh you make me feel
like I’m alive again
alive again
oh you make me feel
like I’m alive again

said I can’t go on, not in this way
I’m a dream that died by light of day
gonna hold up half the sky and say
only I own me
and I feel my heart beating
I feel my heart underneath my skin
oh I can feel my heart beating
cause you make me feel
like I’m alive again
alive again
oh you make me feel
like I’m alive again

turn your magic on, Umi she’d say
everything you want’s a dream away
under this pressure under this weight
we are diamonds taking shape
we are diamonds taking shape

if we’ve only got this life
this adventure oh then I
and if we’ve only got this life
you get me through
and if we’ve only got this life
in this adventure oh then I
want to share it with you
with you
with you
yeah I do
woohoo
woohoo
woohoo

Everglow - Coldplay

oh they say people come, say people go
this particular diamond was extra special
and though you might be gone, and the world may not know
still I see you, celestial

like a lion you ran,  a goddess you rolled
like an eagle you circled, in perfect purple
so how come things move on, how come cars don’t slow
when it feels like the end of my world
when I should but I can’t let you go?

but when I’m cold, cold
oh when I’m cold, cold
there’s a light that you give me when I’m in shadow
there’s a feeling you give me, an everglow

like brothers in blood, sisters who ride
and we swore on that night we’d be friends til we die
but the changing of winds, and the way waters flow
life as short as the falling of snow
and now I’m gonna miss you I know

but when I’m cold, cold
in water rolled, salt
I know that you’re with me and the way you will show
and you’re with me wherever I go
and you give me this feeling this everglow

oh- I I I I
what I wouldn’t give for just a moment to hold
yeah I live for this feeling this everglow

so if you love someone, you should let them know
oh the light that you left me will everglow

Hymn For The Weekend - Coldplay

sent from up above
you know you make my world light up
when I was down, when I was hurt
you came to lift me up

life is a drink and love’s a drug
oh now I think I must be miles up
when I was a river dried up
you came to rain a flood

you said ‘drink from me, drink from me’
when I was so thirsty
poured on a symphony
now I just can’t get enough
put your wings on me, on me
when I was so heavy
poured on a symphony
when I’m low low low low

I oh I oh I
got me feeling drunk and high
so high so high
oh I oh I oh I
now I’m feeling drunk and high
so high so high

oh angel sent from up above
I feel you coursing through my blood
life is a drink and your love’s about
to make the stars come out

put your wings on me, on me
when I was so heavy
poured on a symphony
when I’m low low low low

I oh I oh I
you got me feeling drunk and high
so high so high
oh I oh I oh I
now I’m feeling drunk and high
so high so high

I oh I oh I
la la la la la la la
so high so high

oh I oh I oh I
now I’m feeling drunk and high
so high so high
that I shoot across the sky
that I shoot across the
that I shoot across the sky
watch me shoot across the

Birds - Coldplay

been standing in the corner
studying the lights
the dreaming of escape will keep you up at night
but someone had put the flares up
and got me in the rays
so I guess I’d better stay
‘uh uh no come on’ you say

it’s a fool’s gold thunder
it’s just a warring rain
don’t let the fears just start ‘what if
I won’t see you again’
around here you never want to sleep all night
so start falling in love, start the riot and

come on rage with me
we don’t need words
and we’ll be birds
got to make our own key

only got this moment
you and me
guilty of nothing
but geography

come on and raise it
come on and raise this noise
for the million people
who got not one voice
come on it’s not over if you
mean it say loud
come on all for Love
out from the underground
away with me
we don’t need words
close your eyes and see
and we’ll be birds
flying free
holding on in the mystery

oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
fearless together
you said ‘we’ll go through this together’
when you fly won’t you
won’t you take me too
in this world so cruel
I think you’re so cool

A Head Full Of Dreams - Coldplay

oh I think I landed
in a world I hadn’t seen
when I’m feeling ordinary
when I don’t know what I mean

oh I think I landed
where there are miracles at work
for the thirst and for the hunger
come the conference of birds

saying it’s true, it’s not what it seems
leave your broken windows open
and in the light just streams
and you get a head, a head full of dreams
you can see the change you wanted
be what you want to be
and you get a head, a head full of dreams
into life I’ve just been spoken
with a head full, a head full of dreams

oh I think I landed
where there are miracles at work
when you got me open-handed
when you got me lost for words
I sing oh-oh-oh

A head full of dreams
A head full of dreams
Into life I’ve just been woken
With a head full, a head full of dreams

Miracles - Coldplay

From up above I heard the angels sing to me these words
And sometimes in your eyes I see the beauty of the world

Oh, now I'm floating so high
I blossom and die
Send your storm and your lightening to strike me between the eyes

Sometimes the stars decide to reflect in puddles in the dirt
When I look in your eyes, I forget all about what hurts

Oh, now I'm floating so high
I blossom and die
Send your storm and your lightening to strike me between the eyes

And cry: 
Believe in miracles

Oh hey I'm floating up above the world now
Oh hey I'm floating up above the world now

Oh yeah yeah yeah!

O (Reprise) - Coldplay

Oh don't ever let go
don't ever let go

Ghost Story - Coldplay

Maybe I'm just a ghost
Disappear when anybody's close
Go through you when you try to hold
Try to hold me near
 
Maybe I'm just a ghost
Emptier than anybody knows
Maybe I'm on the ropes
Or I'm not even here
 
Yeah!
 
Everytime I try to walk through walls
More walls appear
What's the point of feeling love for you when you don't believe I'm here?
What's the point of trying to raise your voice if no one ever hears?
Everytime I try to pull you close
You disappear
 
Maybe I'm a ghost
Just a whisper in a puff of smoke
A secret that nobody knows
No one will ever hear
 
Or maybe I'm a ghost
A spectre on a rollercoaster
A thorn without a rose
Just something people fear
 
Yeah!
 
And everytime I thought I'd walk through walls 
It's all becoming clear 
What's the point in feeling love for you 
When you don't believe I'm here?

What's the point in saying 'Rescue me!'
If no one ever hears?
Every time I try to pull you close
You disappear
Every time I try to pull you close
You disappear

And everytime I thought I'd walk through walls 
It's all becoming clear 
Everytime I try to pull you close
You disappear
Everytime I try to pull you close
You disappear

All Your Friends - Coldplay

On and on
You're told which side you're on
You're forced you're thrown
To become the scythe to cut the corn

And all your friends they ride into the sunset
Fly into the sunset and away they go
All your friends they ride into the sunset
Fly into the sunset and away they're thrown 
into the fire

Ten below
The call comes on the radio
Over you go
And the red now all the rivers flow, the poppies grow

All your friends they ride into the sunset
Fly into the sunset and away they go
All your friends they ride into the sunset
Ride into the sunset and they're taken home 
into the fire

Open fire, open fire!

0 - Coldplay

Flock of birds
Hovering above
Just a flock of birds
That's how you think of love
 
And I always look up to the sky
Pray before the dawn
Cause they fly always
Sometimes they arrive
Sometimes they are gone
Fly on
 
Flock of birds
Hovering above
Into smoke I'm turned and rise, following them up
Still I always look up to the sky
Pray before the dawn
Cause they fly away
One minute they arrive
Next you know they're gone
Fly on

Fly on, ride through
Maybe one day I'll fly next to you
Fly on, ride through
Maybe one day I can fly with you
Fly on

Oceans - Coldplay

Wait for your call love
The call never came
Ready to fall up
Ready to claim
And I'm ready for it all love
Ready for the pain
Meet under sun and
Meet me again 
In the rain
In the rain

Behind the walls love
I'm trying to change
And I'm ready for it all love
I'm ready for the change
Meet me in blue sky
Meet me again
In the rain, the rain, the rain
 
Got to find yourself alone in this world
To find yourself alone

Another’s Arms - Coldplay

Late night watching TV
Used to be you here beside me
Used to be your arms around me
Your body on my body

When the world means nothing to me
Another's arms another's arms
When the pain just rips right through me
Another's arms another's arms

Late night watching TV
Used to be you here beside me
Is there someone there to reach me
Or someone there to find me
 
When the pain just rips right through me
Another's arms another's arms
And that's just torture to me
Another's arms another's arms
Pull yourself into me
Another's arms another's arms
When the world means nothing to me
Another's arms another's arms
 
Got to pull you close into me
Another's arms another's arms
Pull yourself right through me
Another's arms another's arms
 
Late night watching TV
Wish that you were here beside me
Wish that your arms were around me
Your body on my body

True Love - Coldplay

For a second I was in control
I had it once I lost it though
And all along the fire below would rise
And I wish you could have let me know
What's really going on below
I've lost you now, you let me go
But one last time
 
Tell me you love me
If you don't then lie
Oh lie to me
 
Remember once upon a time
When I was yours and you were blind
A fire would sparkle in your eyes
And mine
 
So tell me you love me
If you don't then lie
Oh lie to me
Just tell me you love me
If you don't then lie
Oh lie to me
If you don't then lie
Oh lie to me
 
Call it true, call it true love
Call it true, call it true love

Ink - Coldplay

Got a tattoo said 'together thru life'
Carved in your name with my pocket knife
And you wonder when you wake up will it be alright 
Feels like there's something broken inside

All I know 
All I know 
Is that I'm lost 
Whenever you go 
All I know 
Is that I love you so 
So much that it hurts 

Got a tattoo and the pain's alright 
Just want a way of keeping you inside

All I know 
All I know 
Is that I'm lost 
In your fire below
All I know 
Is that I love you so 
So much that it hurts 

I see the road begin to climb
I see your stars begin to shine
I see your colours and I'm dying of thirst
All I know 
Is that I love you so
So much that it hurts

Always In My Head - Coldplay

I think of you, I haven't slept
I think I do but I don't forget
My body moves, goes where I will
But though I try my heart stays still
It never moves, just won't be led
And so my mouth waters to be fed

And you're always in my head
You're always in my head
 
This I guess is to tell you 
You're chosen out from the rest

A Sky Full Of Stars - Coldplay

Cause you're a sky cause you're a sky full of stars
I'm gonna give you my heart
Cause you're a sky cause you're a sky full of stars 
Cause you light up the path 

And I don't care go on and tear me apart
And I don't care if you do
Cause in a sky cause in a sky full of stars 
I think I saw you 

Cause you're a sky cause you're a sky full of stars
I want to die in your arms
Cause you get lighter the more it gets dark 
I'm gonna give you my heart

And I don't care go on and tear me apart
And I don't care if you do
Cause in a sky cause in a sky full of stars 
I think I see you 
I think I see you 

Cause in a sky cause in a sky full of stars
I think I see you 
I think I see you 

Cause you're a sky you're a sky full of stars 
Such a heavenly view
You're such a heavenly view

Magic - Coldplay

Call it magic
Call it true
I call it magic
When I'm with you
And I just got broken
Broken into two
Still I call it magic
When I'm next to you
 
And I don't and I don't and I don't and I don't
No, I don't it's true
I don't, no I don't, no I don't, no I don't
Want anybody else but you
I don't, no I don't, no I don't, no I don't
No, I don't it's true
I don't, no I don't, no I don't, no I don't
Want anybody else but you

Call it magic
Cut me into two
And with all your magic
I disappear from view
And I can't get over
Can't get over you
Still I call it magic
Such a precious jewel

And I don't and I don't and I don't and I don't
No, I don't it's true
I don't, no I don't, no I don't, no I don't
Want anybody else but you
I don't, no I don't, no I don't, no I don't
No, I don't it's true
I don't, no I don't, no I don't, no I don't
Want anybody else but you

Want to fall, fall so far
I want to fall, fall so hard
And I call it magic
And I call it true
I call it magic

And if you were to ask me
After all that we've been through
Still believe in magic?
Yes, I do
Of course I do

Midnight - Coldplay

In the darkness before the dawn
In the swirling of the storm
When I'm rolling with the punches and hope is gone
Leave a light a light on

Millions of miles from home
In the swirling swimming on
When I'm rolling with the thunder
But bleed from thorns
Leave a light a light on
Leave a light a light on

In the darkness before the dawn
In the darkness before the dawn
Leave a light a light on
Leave a light a light on

Atlas - Coldplay

Some saw the sun
Some saw the smoke
Some heard the gun
Some bent the bow
Sometimes the wire
Must tense for the note
We're caught in the fire, say oh
We're about to explode

Carry your world
I'll carry your world
Carry your world
I'll carry your world

Some far away
Some search for gold
Some dragon to slay
Heaven we hope
Is just up the road
Show me the way, lord,
Because I
I'm about to explode

Carry your world
I'll carry your world
Carry your world
I'll carry your world
Carry your world
And all your hurt

Carry your world
Carry your world

Hurts Like Heaven - Coldplay

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
Take the fire from my belly and the beat from my heart
Still I won't let go
Still I won't let go

Of you- ooh ooh
Cos you do
Oh you use your heart as a weapon
And it hurts like heaven

On every street every car every surface a name
Tonight the streets are ours
And we're writing and saying
Don't let em take control
No we won't 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'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
Cos you use your heart as a weapon
And it hurts like heaven

Woah oh oh oh, woah oh oh oh
Yeah it's true
When you
Use your heart as a weapon
Then it hurts like heaven
And it hurts like heaven
Oh oh oh-oh

And it hurts like heaven
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Up With The Birds - Coldplay

The birds they sang, break of day
'Start again' I hear them say
It's so hard to just walk away
 
The birds they sang, all a choir
'Start again', a little higher
It's a spark in a sea of grey
 
The sky is blue, dream that lie 'til it's true
Then taking back the punch I threw
My arms turn wings oh those clumsy things
Send me up to that wonderful world
And then I'm up with the birds
 
Send me up to that wonderful world
And then I'm up with the birds
 
Might have to go where they don't know my name
Float all over the world just to see her again
But I won't show or feel any pain
Even though all my armour 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
Oh yeah!

Don’t Let It Break Your Heart - Coldplay

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 heavily we 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

She said 'When you're tired of aiming your arrows
Still you never hit the mark
Even in your rains and shadows
Still we're never going to part
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

Up In Flames - Coldplay

So it's over
This time I know it's gone
Saltwater
Tasted it too long

I only know I'm wrong
Now I know it's gone

Up in flames
Up in flames
Up in flames
We have slowly gone

So it's over
This time you're flying on
This time I know no song
Can stop its lonely burn
Can stop it slowly going

Up in flames
Up in flames
Up in flames
We have slowly gone

Up in flames
Up in flames
Up in flames
We have slowly gone
We have slowly gone

Can't we pour some water on

Princess Of China - Coldplay

Once upon a time somebody ran
Somebody ran away saying 'fast as I can
I got to go, I got to go'
Once upon a time we fell apart
You're holding in your hands the two halves of my heart
Oh oh oh, ohohohoh

Oh ohohohoh, ohohohohoh, ohohohoh, oh

Once upon a time we burned bright
Now all we ever seem to do is fight
On and on, and on and on and on
Once upon a time on the same side
Once upon a time on the same side in the same game
Now why d'you have to go
Have to go and throw water on my flame?
I could have been a princess, you'd be a king
Could have had a castle and worn a ring

I could have been a princess, you'd be a king
Could have had a castle and worn a ring
But no o o o oh you let me go o o o oh
You stole my star
La, lalala lalalala, lalalalalalala, lalalalalalala,
You stole my star
La, lalala lalalala

'Cos you really hurt me, no you really hurt me
'Cos you really hurt me, no you really hurt me
'Cos you really hurt me, oh-oh you really hurt me
'Cos you really hurt me, oh-oh you really hurt me

U.F.O - Coldplay

Lord I don't know which way I am going
Which way the river's going to flow
It just seems that upstream I keep rowing
Still got such a long way to go
Still got such a long way to go

And that light hits your eyes
I know I swear we'll find somewhere
The streets are paved with gold

Bullets fly split the sky
But that's alright sometimes sunlight comes streaming through the holes

Ohohoh

Us Against The World - Coldplay

Oh morning come bursting the clouds amen
Lift off this blindfold let me see again
Bring back the water let your ships roll in
In my heart she left a hole

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

And sing
Slow it down
Through chaos as it swirls
It's us against the world

Like a river to a raindrop I lost a friend
My drunken hazard daniel in a lion's den
And tonight I know it all has to begin again
So whatever you do, don't let go

And if we could float away
Fly up to the surface and just start again
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 saying

Slow it down
Through chaos as it swirls 
It's us against the world

Through chaos as it swirls
It's us against the world

Charlie Brown - Coldplay

Wooh, ooh ooh ooh

Stole a key
Took a car downtown where the lost boys meet
Took a car downtown and took what they offered me
To set me free
I saw the lights go down at the end of the scene
Saw the lights go down and standing in front of me

Poh ooh ooh

In my scarecrow dreams
When they smash my heart into smithereens                                              
Be a bright red rose come bursting the concrete                                     
Be a cartoon heart                                                                                              
Light a fire a fire a spark
Light a fire a flame in my heart
We'll run wild
We'll be glowing in the dark
Oooh ooh ooh
We'll be glowing in the dark
A-woo-a-wooooo

All the boys, all the girls, all that matters in the world
All the boys, all the girls, all the madness that occurs
All the highs all the lows, as the room a-spinning goes
We'll run riot, we'll be glowing in the dark

Ooooh, ooooh, ooooh
So we'll soar
Luminous and wired
We'll be glowing in the dark

Paradise - Coldplay

When she was just a girl
She expected the world
But it flew away from her reach so
She ran away in her sleep
And dreamed of
Para-para-paradise, Para-para-paradise, Para-para-paradise
Every time she closed her eyes

When she was just a girl
She expected the world
But it flew away from her reach
And the bullets catch in her teeth
Life goes on, it gets so heavy
The wheel breaks the butterfly
Every tear a waterfall            
In the night the stormy night she'll close her eyes
In the night the stormy night away she'd fly

And dreams of
Para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
Oh oh oh oh oh oh-oh-oh
She'd dream of
Para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
Oh oh oh oh oh oh-oh-oh-oh

Lalalalalalalalalalala
And so lying underneath those stormy skies
She'd say, "oh, ohohohoh I know the sun must set to rise"

This could be
Para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
Oh oh oh oh oh oh-oh-oh

This could be
Para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
Oh oh oh oh oh oh-oh-oh

This could be
Para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
Oh oh oh oh oh oh-oh-oh

Moving To Mars - Coldplay

Somewhere up above the stars
The wreckage of a universe floats past
somewhere up above my heart
A tiny little seed is sown
A government is overthrown
Who knows when we'll be coming home at last

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
we won't see the earth again
in these seconds just remain unchanged

8 to 9 9 to 10
We are meeting for the first time we might never meet again
You and me
We are meeting for the first time cant you see
7 6 5 4 3
We are meeting for the first time singing this space symphony

They'll be tearing us apart
Moving us to mars
Past the satellites and stars
Well they're moving us to mars

Major Minus - Coldplay

They got one eye watching you
One eye on what you do
So be careful who it is you're talking to
They got one eye watching you
One eye on what you do
So be careful what it is you're trying to do
And be careful when you're walking into view
Just be careful when you're walking into view

Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh oooh
Got one eye on the road and one on you
Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh oooh
Got one eye on the road and one on

They got one eye watching you
One eye on what you do
So be careful 'cos nothing they say is true
No don't believe a word
It's just us against the world
And we just got to turn up to be heard
Hear the crocodiles ticking round the world
Hear those crocodiles ticking, they go ticking round the world

Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh oooh
Got one eye on the road and one on you
Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh oooh
Got one eye on the road and
You could hear them climbing the stairs
Got my right side fighting while my left hides under the chairs

Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh oooh
Got one eye on the road and one on you
Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh oooh
Got one eye on the road and one on you

Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall - Coldplay

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

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

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

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

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

So you can hurt, hurt me bad
But still I'll 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

The Goldrush - Coldplay

I went digging for gold
Down by the river
Over by the mountain
Where the prospector had been told
I'm marching through the cold
We're marching through the cold
I went digging for gold
I went down with my brother
A bucket and a shovel
And a book about the colour of coal
I'm marching through the cold
We're marching through the cold
There's a tiny little crackle on the telephone line
Saying, "What use the metal if the metal don't shine"
She said, "Bring me back a diamond ring cause I really want one"
Now I been digging so long that I never see the sun

Now My Feet Won’t Touch The Ground - Coldplay

Let me go boys, let me go
Push my boat from the highest cliff
To the sea below
Rocks are waiting boys
If rocks await
Swoop down from the sky and catch me like a bird of prey
Now my feet won't touch the ground
Now my head won't stop
You wait a lifetime to be found
Now my feet won't touch the ground

Now my feet won't touch the ground
Now my head won't stop
You wait a lifetime to be found
Now my feet won't touch the ground
Now my feet won't touch the ground

Lovers In Japan (Osaka Sun Mix) - Coldplay

Lovers keep on the road you're on
Runners until the race is run
Soldiers you've got to soldier on
Sometimes even the right is wrong

They are turning my head out
To see what I'm all about
Keeping my head down
To see what it feels like now
And I have no doubt
One day we're going to get out

Tonight maybe we're gonna run
Dreaming of the Osaka sun
Ohohoh ohohoh ohoh
Dreaming of when the morning comes

They are turning my head out
To see what I'm all about
Keeping my head down
To see what it feels like now
And I have no doubt
One day the sun will come out

Prospekt’s March (Poppyfields) - Coldplay

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 could be as simple
As fish swimming round in a barrel when you've got the gun
Oh and I run
Here it comes
We're just two little figures in a soup bowl 
Trying to get behind some kind of control
But I wasn't one
But here am I on my own in a separate sky
And here I lie on my own in a separate sky

I don't wanna die on my own here tonight
And here I lie on my own in a separate sky

Rainy Day - Coldplay

Then there was rain
The sky wore a veil of gold and green
Night is the bride of a lonely day
Time just floated
Then there was rain
The sound foundations are crumbling
To the ground comes a pyramid tumbling 
Time just floated away
We can watch it and stay
And we can listen

Oh rainy day come round
Sometimes I just want it to slow down
And we're separated now
And oh but I love it when you come over to the house
I love it when you come over to my house

Then there was rain 
I spent the night with the queen of Spain
My lonely little heart well it broke again
Time so vicious
The deeper that the knife goes in
The more you win
You end up with less than where you begin
The deeper that the knife goes in

Oh rainy day come round
Sometimes I just want it to slow down
We're separated now
And oh but I love it when you come over to the house
I love it when you come over to my house

And I love it when you come over to the house
I love it when you come over to my house

I love it when you come over to the house
I love it when you come over to my house

Glass Of Water - Coldplay

Scared of losing all the time
He wrote it in a letter
He was a friend of mine
He heard you could see your future
Inside a glass of water
The ripples and the lines
And he asked
"Will I see heaven in mine"

That is just the way it was
Nothing could be better
And nothing ever was
Oh they say you can see your future
Inside a glass of water
The riddles and the rhymes
Will I see heaven in mine
Oh oh oh oh I
Son don't ask
Neither half full or empty
Is the glass

Cling to the mast 
Spend your whole life living in the past
Going nowhere fast

So he wrote it on a wall
The hollowest of halos
Is no halo at all
Television selling plastic figurines of leaders
Saying nothing at all
And you chime
Stars in heaven align
Oh oh oh oh I 
Son don't ask
Neither half full or empty 
Is your glass

Cling to the mast
Spend your whole life living in the past
Going nowhere fast

Oh what are we drinking when we're done
Glasses of water

Life In Technicolor ii - Coldplay

There's a wild wind blowing
Down the corner of my street
Every night there the headlights are glowing
There's a cold war coming
On the radio I heard
Baby it's a violent world

Oh oh love don't let me go
Won't you take me where the street lights glow
I can hear it coming
I can hear the siren sound
Now my feet won't touch the ground

Time came a-creeping
Oh and time's a loaded gun
Every road is a ray of light
It goes on
Time'll leak and lead you on
Still it's such beautiful night

Oh oh love don't let me go
Won't you take me where the street lights glow
I can hear it coming
Like a serenade of sound
Now my feet won't touch the ground

Gravity release me
And don't ever hold me down
Now my feet won't touch the ground

Lost+ - Coldplay

Just because I'm losing
Doesn't mean I'm lost
Doesn't mean I'll stop
Doesn't mean I'm across

Just because I'm hurting
Doesn't mean I'm hurt
Doesn't mean I didn't get what I deserved
No better and no worse

I just got lost!
Every river that I tried to cross
Every door I ever tried was locked
Oh and I'm just waiting til the shine wears off

You might be a big fish
In a little pond
Doesn't mean you've won
'Cause along will come
A bigger one

And you'll be lost!
Every river that you tried to cross
Every gun you ever held went off
Oh and I'm just waiting til the firing's stopped
Oh and I'm just waiting til the shine wears off

Aha, I got you, uh
With the same sword they knight you
They gon' goodnight you with
Shit, that's only half if they like you
That ain't even a half what they might do
Don't believe me, Ask Michael 
See Martin, see Malcolm
See Biggie, see Pac
See success and its outcome
See Jesus, see Judas
See Caesar, see Brutus
See success is like suicide
Suicide, it's a suicide
If you succeed prepare to be crucified
Media meddles
Niggaz sue you, you settle
Every step you take
They remind you, you ghetto
So it's tough being Bobby Brown
To be Bobby then you have to be Bobby now
And the question is, is to have had and lost
Better than not having at all
Because

Oh and I'm just waiting til the shine wears off
Oh and I'm just waiting til the shine wears off

Death Will Never Conquer - Coldplay

If sweet death should ever conquer me
Let me know boys, let me know
If you hear him coming
Won't you let me flee
Let me go boys, let me go

One day death is gonna conquer me
I'll be there where the waters flow
I hope sweet heaven has a place for me
Let me know boys, let me know

If sweet death should ever conquer me
Take me down to some place below
If you hear him  coming
Won't you set me free
Let me go boys, let me go

If you hear him coming
Won't you sing for me
That I just don't want to go

Death And All His Friends - Coldplay

All winter we got carried
Away over on the roof tops, let's get married
All summer we just hurried
So come over, just be patient and don't worry
So come over, just be patient and don't worry

So come over, just be patient and don't worry
And don't worry

No I don't want a battle from beginning to end
I don't want a cycle of recycled revenge
I don't want to follow death and all of his friends

No I don't want a battle from beginning to end
I don't want a cycle of recycled revenge
I don't want to follow death and all of his friends

Strawberry Swing - Coldplay

They were sitting
They were sitting on the strawberry swing
Every moment was so precious

They were sitting
They were talking under strawberry swing
Everybody was for fighting
Wouldn't want to waste a thing

Cold, cold water bring me round
Now my feet won't touch the ground
Cold, cold water what you say
When it's such, it's such a perfect day
Such a perfect day

I remember we were walking up to strawberry swing
I can't wait until the morning
Wouldn't want to change a thing

People moving all the time
Inside a perfectly straight line
Don't you wanna just curve away
When it's such, it's such a perfect day
It's such a perfect day

Ah-ah-ah-ah-iiiiii
Now the sky could be blue I don't mind
Without you it's a waste of time
Could be blue I don't mind
Without you it's a waste of time
Now the sky could be blue could be grey
Without you I'm just miles away
Oh the sky could be blue I don't mind
Without you it's a waste of time

Violet Hill - Coldplay

It was a long and dark December
From the rooftops I remember
There was snow, white snow
Clearly I remember
From the windows they were watching
While we froze down below
When the future's architectured
By a carnival of idiots on show
You'd better lie low
If you love me, won't you let me know

Was a long and dark December
When the banks became cathedrals
And a fox became God
Priests clutched onto bibles
Hollowed out to fit their rifles
And a cross held aloft
Bury me in armour
When I'm dead and hit the ground
My nerves are poles that unfroze
And if you love me, won't you let me know

I don't want to be a soldier
Who the captain of some sinking ship
Would stow, far below.
So if you love me, why d'you let me go

I took my love down to violet hill
There we sat in snow
All that time she was silent still
Said if you love me, won't you let me know
If you love me, won't you let me know

Viva La Vida - Coldplay

I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own

I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listened as the crowd would sing
Now the old king is dead long live the king
One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing
Roman cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
Missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
Once you'd gone there was never
Never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world

It was a wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People couldn't believe what I'd become
Revolutionaries wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh who would ever want to be king

I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing
Roman cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know St Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

Hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing
Roman cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know St Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

Yes - Coldplay

When it started we had high hopes
Now my back's on the line
My back's on the ropes

When it started we were alright
But night makes a fool
Of us in daylight

There we were dying of frustration
Saying, "Lord lead me not into temptation"
But it's not easy when she turns you on
Sin, stay gone

If you'd only if you'd only say yes
Whether you will's anybody's guess
God only God knows I'm trying my best
But I'm just so tired of this loneliness

Hey

So up they picked me by the big toe
I was held from the rooftop then they let go
Dizzily screaming "Let the windows down"
As I crawl to the ground

If you'd only if you'd only say yes
Whether you will's anybody's guess
God only God knows she won't let me rest
But I'm just tired of this loneliness
I've become so tired of this loneliness

Lovers In Japan (Reign Of Love) - Coldplay

Lovers keep on the road you're on
Runners until the race is run
Soldiers you've got to soldier on
Sometimes even the right is wrong

They are turning my head out
To see what I'm all about
Keeping my head down
To see what it feels like now
And I have no doubt
One day we're going to get out

Tonight maybe we're gonna run
Dreaming of the Osaka sun
Ohohohoh ohohohoh oh
Dreaming of when the morning comes

They are turning my head out
To see what I'm all about
Keeping my head down
To see what it feels like now
And I have no doubt
One day the sun will come out

Reign of love
I can't let go
To the sea I offer this heavy load 
Locust wind
Lift me up
I'm just a prisoner in a reign of love

Locust wind
Here I stop
How I wish I'd spoken up
To a reign of love

Reign of love by the church we're waiting
Reign of love on my knees go praying
How I wish I'd spoken up
Away get carried on a reign of love

42 - Coldplay

Those who are dead are not dead
They're just living in my head
And since I fell for that spell
I am living there as well

Time is so short
And I'm sure
There must be something more

Those who are dead are not dead
They're just living in my head
And since I fell for that spell
I am living there as well

Time is so short
And I'm sure
There must be something more

You thought you might be a ghost!
You thought you might be a ghost!
You didn't get to heaven but you made it close
You didn't get to heaven but you made it close

You thought you might be a ghost!
You thought you might be a ghost!
You didn't get to heaven but you made it close
You didn't get to heaven but you oh-oh oh-oh

Those who are dead are not dead
They're just living in my head

Lost! - Coldplay

Just because I'm losing
Doesn't mean I'm lost
Doesn't mean I'll stop
Doesn't mean I'm across

Just because I'm hurting
Doesn't mean I'm hurt
Doesn't mean I didn't get what I deserved
No better and no worse

I just got lost!
Every river that I tried to cross
Every door I ever tried was locked
Oh and I'm just waiting til the shine wears off

You might be a big fish
In a little pond
Doesn't mean you've won
'Cause along will come
A bigger one

Cemeteries Of London - Coldplay

At night they would go walking
'Til the breaking of the day
The morning is for sleeping
Through the dark streets they go searching
To see God in their own way
Save the night time for your weeping
Your weeping
Singing lalalalalalalalaiy
And the night over London lay

So we rode down to the river
Where Victorian ghosts pray
For their curses to be broken
We go wandering 'neath the arches
Where the witches are and they say
There are ghost towns in the ocean
The ocean
Singing lalalalalalalalaiy
And the night over London lay

God is in the houses
And God is in my head
And all the cemeteries of London
I see God come in my garden
But I don't know what he said
For my heart it wasn't open
Not open
Singing lalalalalalalalaiy
And the night over London lay
Singing lalalalalalalalaiy
There's no light over London today

A Spell A Rebel Yell - Coldplay

As far as I can see
All time and circuitry 
Is wrong

As far as poetry
Sit down and sing to me
A song

'Cause all I want in this world
All I want in this world
Is for you to come home
A spell a rebel yell
A spell

Soldier come home to me
You've been away from me
So long
All I want in this world
All I want and deserve
Is for you to come home

A spell a rebel yell

Violet Hill - Coldplay

How You See The World (Live at Earl’s Court) - Coldplay

They put the world in a tin can
Black market contraband
And it hurt just a little bit
When they sliced and packaged it
In a long black trench coat
Two hands around the throat
Oh you wanna get it right sometimes

There's so much to be scared of
And not much to make sense of
How did the crowns ever get control
If you hear can you let me know
How can they invade it
When it's so complicated
Oh you wanna get it right sometimes
You just wanna get it right sometimes

It's how you see the world
How many times can you say
You can't believe what you heard
That's how you see the world
Don't you worry yourself
You're not gonna get hurt
Oooh

When there's something missing
Seems like there's nobody listening
If you're running in a circle
How can you be too careful
We don't want to be rent trapped
We don't wanna be shrink-wrapped
Oh just wanna get it right sometimes
We just wanna get it right sometimes

That's how you see the world
How many times have you heard
That you can't believe a word
That's how you see the world
Ah don't you worry yourself
'Cause nobody can hurt you

That's how you see the world
That's how you see the world

Gravity - Coldplay

Baby it's been a long time coming
Such a long, long time
And I can't stop running
Such a long, long time
Can you hear my heart beating
Can you hear that sound
'Cause I can't help thinking
And I won't stop now

And then I looked up at the sun
And I could see
Oh the way that gravity pulls on you and me
And then I looked up at the sky
And saw the sun
And the way that gravity pushes on everyone
On everyone

Baby when your wheels stop turning
And you feel let down
And it seems like troubles
Have come all around
I can hear your heart beating
I can hear that sound
But I can't help thinking
And I won't look now

And then I looked up at the sun
And I could see
Oh the way that gravity pulls on you and me
And then I looked up at the sky
And saw the sun
And the way that gravity pushes on everyone
On everyone

On everyone

Sleeping Sun - Coldplay

Climb up your mountain 
Nineteen and counting
You have got seven
I have got one

Blinded and hurting
This I'm deserving
I've got my secrets
You've only got the Sleeping Sun

When you've got a secret
Then you've got to keep it
When you have a question
Answers will come
Running and hiding
Taking dividing
You've got your secrets
I've only got the Sleeping Sun

The Sleeping Sun

Singing
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh ah oh

And you as I saw
were a piece in a jigsaw
Run up the divide and
Tip of the tongue
Run round the houses
North and the south is
You've got your answers
We have both got the Sleeping Sun

The Sleeping Sun

Singing
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh ah oh

Pour Me - Coldplay

Poor me, floating out to sea 
An opportunity that went bad 
Poor you, now what you gonna do
Now what you gonna do
You just cry 

Poor me, so blind I couldn't see
The forest for the trees
I don't know why
Poor you, you split yourself in two
Now what you gonna do
You just cry

I hear you come nearer 
I hear you but I don't understand 
I hear you come nearer 
I hear you but I don't understand 

Poor me, floating out to sea 
An opportunity that went bad 
Poor you, now what you gonna do
Oh what you gonna do
You just cry 

I hear you come nearer 
I hear you but I don't understand 
I hear you come nearer 
I hear you but I don't understand 

I don't understand 
I don't understand

The World Turned Upside Down - Coldplay

X & Y
The land, sea, rivers, trees, the stars, the sky 
That and this 
We're part of a bigger plan 
Don't know what it is 
Don't know what it is 

You and me 
The land, sun, trees, the sky, the stars, the sea 
365 degrees 
I am a puzzle you're the missing piece 
Hang on a minute just a minute please 
I'll come 
And everything under the sun 
And everything under the sun 

What is this feeling that I can't explain
And why am I never gonna sleep again
What is this thing I've never seen before
A little boy lost in a breaking storm 
Pilots, up and away they fly 
To write your name in the summer sky 
Life has really only just begun 
Life that comes 
And everything under the sun 

X is Y 
The land, sea, rivers, trees, the stars, the sky 
365 degrees 
All of the surface and the underneath 

ah 
And everything under the sun 
And everything under the sun 

What is this feeling that I can't explain
And why am I never gonna sleep again
What is this thing I've never seen before
A little boy lost in a breaking storm 
Pilots up and away they fly 
To write your name in the summer sky 
Life has really only just begun 
Life that comes 
And everything under the sun 

And you don't know that you've been born 
Can't see the calm until the storm 
Can't tell your right side from your wrong 
Can't see the wave you're riding on

‘Til Kingdom Come - Coldplay

Still my heart and hold my tongue
I feel my time, my time has come
Let me in, unlock the door
I never felt this way before

And the wheels just keep on turning
The drummer begins to drum
I don't know which way I'm going
I don't know which way I've come

Hold my head inside your hands
I need someone who understands
I need someone, someone who hears
For you I've waited all these years

For you I'd wait 'til kingdom come
Until my day my day is done
And say you'll come and set me free
Just say you'll wait you'll wait for me

In your tears and in your blood
In your fire and in your flood
I hear you laugh I heard you sing
I wouldn't change a single thing

The wheels just keep on turning
The drummers begin to drum
I don't know which way I'm going
I don't know what I've become

For you I'd wait 'til kingdom come
Until my days my days are done
Say you'll come and set me free
Just say you'll wait, you'll wait for me

Just say you'll wait, you'll wait for me
Just say you'll wait, you'll wait for me

Twisted Logic - Coldplay

Sunlight opened up my eyes
To see for the first time
It opened them up
And tonight
Rivers will run dry
And not for the first time
Rivers will run

Hundreds of years in the future
There could be computers
Looking for life on earth
Don't fight for the wrong side
Say what you feel like
Say how you feel

You'll go backwards
But then you'll go forwards again
You'll go backwards 
But then you'll go 

Created then drilled and invaded
If somebody made it
Someone will mess it up
And you are not wrong to 
Ask, who does this belong to
It belongs to all of us

You'll go backwards, but then you'll go forwards again 
You'll go backwards, but then you'll go forwards
You'll go backwards, but then you'll go forwards again
You'll go backwards, but then you'll go forwards

Swallowed In The Sea - Coldplay

You cut me down a tree 
And brought it back to me 
And that's what made me see 
Where I was going wrong
You put me on a shelf
And kept me for yourself
I can only blame myself
You can only blame me

And I could write a song
A hundred miles long
Well that's where I belong
And you belong with me
And I could write it down 
Or spread it all around
Get lost and then get found
Or swallowed in the sea

You put me on a line and hung me out to dry
And darling that's when i decide to go see 
You cut me down to size
And opened up my eyes 
Made me realize
What I could not see

And I could write a book
The one they'll say that shook
The world and then it took
It took it back from me
And I could write it down 
Or spread it all around
Get lost and then get found
And you'll come back to me
Not swallowed in the sea

Ooh ah
Ooh ah

And I could write a song
A hundred miles long
well that's where I belong
And you belong with me
The streets you're walking on
A thousand houses long 
Well that's where I belong
And you belong with me
Ah what good is it to live 
With nothing left to give
Forget but not forgive
Not loving all you see
Ah the streets you're walking on
A thousand houses long
Well that's where I belong
And you belong with me
Not swallowed in the sea
You belong with me 
Not swallowed in the sea
Yeah you belong with me
Not swallowed in the sea

The Hardest Part - Coldplay

And the hardest part
Was letting go not taking part 
Was the hardest part
And the strangest thing
Was waiting for that bell to ring
It was the strangest start

I could feel it go down
Bittersweet I could taste in my mouth
Silver lining the clouds
Oh and I
I wish that I could work it out

And the hardest part
Was letting go not taking part
You really broke my heart, oh
And I tried to sing
But I couldn't think of anything
That was the hardest part, oh, oh

I could feel it go down
You left the sweetest taste in my mouth
Silver lining the cloud
Oh and I
Oh and I 
I wonder what it's all about
I wonder what it's all about

Everything I know is wrong
Everything I do it just comes undone
And everything is torn apart
Oh, and that's the hardest part
That's the hardest part
Yeah, that's the hardest part
That's the hardest part

Low - Coldplay

You see the world in black and white
No colour or light
You think you'll never get it right 
But you're wrong, you might
The sky could fall could fall on me
The parting of the sea
But you mean more mean more to me
Than any colour I can see

All you ever wanted was love
But you never looked hard enough
It's never gonna give itself up
All you ever wanted to be
Living in perfect symmetry
But nothing is as down or as up as us

You see the world in black and white
Not painted right
You see no meaning to your life
You should try
You should try

All you ever wanted was love 
But you never looked hard enough
It's never gonna give itself up
All you ever wanted to be
Living in perfect symmetry
Nothing is as down or as up
Don't you wanna see it come soon
Floating in a big white balloon
Or given on your own silver spoon
Don't you want to see it come down
There for throwing your arms around
And say, "You're not a moment too soon"

'Cause I feel low
'Cause I feel low 
Yeah I feel low
Oh no

Oh
'Cause I feel low
'Cause I feel low 
Yeah I feel low
Oh no

A Message - Coldplay

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
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

My song is love is love unknown
And I've got to get that message home

X&Y - Coldplay

Trying hard to speak and 
Fighting with my weak hand 
Driven to distraction
It's all part of the plan
When something is broken
And you try to fix it
Trying to repair it
Any way you can

I dive in at the deep end
You become my best friend
I want to love you, but I don't know if I can
I know something is broken
And I'm trying to fix it
Trying to repair it
Any way I can
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

You and me are floating on a tidal wave together
You and me are drifting into outer space and singing 
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

You and me are floating on a tidal wave together
You and me are drifting into outer space
You and me are floating on a tidal wave together
You and me are drifting into outer space and singing
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Talk - Coldplay

Oh brother I can't I can't get through
I've been trying hard to reach you, ‘cause i don't know what to do
Oh brother I can't  believe it's true
I'm so scared about the future and I wanna talk to you
Oh i wanna talk to you

You could take a picture of something you see
In the future where will I be
You could climb a ladder up to the sun
Or write a song nobody had sung
Or do 
Something that's never been done

Are you lost or incomplete
Do you feel like a puzzle, you can't find your missing piece
Tell me how you feel
Well I feel like they're talking in a language I don't speak
And they're talking it to me

So you take a picture of something you see 
In the future where will I be
You could climb a ladder up to the sun
Or write a song nobody had sung
Or do
Something that's never been done
Do
Something that's never been done

So you don't know where you're going and you wanna talk
And you feel like you're going where you've been before
You'll tell anyone who'll listen, but you feel ignored
Nothing's really making any sense at all
Let's talk
Let's talk
Let's talk
Let's talk

Fix You - Coldplay

When you try your best, but you don't succeed 
When you get what you want, but not what you need
When you feel so tired, 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, but it goes to waste
Could it be worse

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

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
I will try to fix you

Tears stream down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down your face and I
Tears stream down your face
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

White Shadows - Coldplay

When I was a young boy I tried to listen
And I want to feel like that
Little white shadows blink and miss them 
Part of a system, I am

If you ever feel like
Something's missing
Things you never understand
Little white shadows sparkle and glisten
Part of a system a plan

All this noise I'm waking up
All the space I'm taking up
All this sound is breaking up

Maybe you'll get what you wanted 
Maybe you'll stumble upon it
Everything you ever wanted in a permanent state
Maybe you'll know when you've seen it
Maybe if you say it you'll mean it 
And when you find it you'll keep it
In a permanent state 
A permanent state

When I was a young boy I tried to listen
Don't you want to feel like that
You're part of the human race
All of the stars and the outer space
Part of a system a plan

All this noise I'm waking up
All the space I'm taking up
I cannot hear, you're breaking up

Maybe you'll get what you wanted
Maybe you'll stumble upon it
Everything you ever wanted in a permanent state
Maybe you'll know when you've seen it
Maybe if you say it you'll mean it
And when you find it you'll keep it  
In a permanent state 
A permanent state

Swim out on a sea of faces
The tide of the human races
An answer now is what I need
See it in the new sun rise and
See it break on your horizon
Oh come on love 
Stay with me

What If - Coldplay

What if there was no light
Nothing wrong nothing right 
What if there was no time
And no reason or rhyme
What if you should decide
That you don't want me there by your side
That you don't want me there in your life

What if I got it wrong
And no poem or song
Could put right what I got wrong
Or make you feel i belong
What if you should decide 
That you don't want me there by your side
That you don't want me there in your life

Ooh that's right
Let's take a breath and jump over the side
Ooh that's right
How can you know it when you don't even try
Ooh that's right 

Every step that you take 
Could be your biggest mistake 
It could bend or it could break
That's the risk that you take
What if you should decide
That you don't want me there in your life
That you don't want me there by your side

Ooh that's right
Let's take a breath jump over the side
Ooh that's right
How can you know it when you don't even try
Ooh that's right
Oh
Ooh that's right
Let's take a breath jump over the side
Ooh that's right
You know that darkness always turns into light
Ooh that's right

Square One - Coldplay

You're in control, is there anywhere you want to go
You're in control, is there anything you want to know
The future's for discovering
The space in which we're travelling

From the top of the first page
To the end of the last day
From the start in your own way
You just want
Somebody listening to what you say
It doesn't matter who you are

Under the surface trying to break through
Deciphering the codes in you
I need a compass draw me a map
I'm on the top, I can't get back

The first line of the first page
To the end in the last place you were looking
From the start in your own way 
You just want
Somebody listening to what you say
It doesn't matter who you are
It doesn't matter who you are

You just want
Somebody listening to what you say
You just want
Somebody listening to what you say
It doesn't matter who you are
it doesn't matter who you are

Is there anybody out there who
Is lost and hurt and lonely too
Are they bleeding all your colours into one
And then you come undone
As if you've been run through
Some catapult had fired you
You wonder if your chance'll ever come
Or if you're stuck in square one

Proof - Coldplay

So I waited for you 
What wouldn't I do
And I'm covered it's true
I'm covered in you
 
If I ever want proof 
I find it in you 
Yeah I honestly do 
In you I find proof 

Light, dark 
Bright spark 
Light, dark 
And then, light
 
So I waited all day
What wouldn't I say
And all the things in your way
Things happen that way

Oh and if I ever want proof 
Then I find it in you 
Oh yeah I honestly do 
In you I find proof 

Light, dark 
Bright spark 
Light, dark 
And then, light

Light light light light light

Things I Don’t Understand - Coldplay

How tides control the sea and what becomes of me
How little things can slip out of your hands
How often people change, no two remain the same
Why things don't always turn out as you plan

These are things that I don't understand
Yeah, these are things that I don't understand

I can't and I can't decide
Wrong, wrong from right
Day, or my day from night
Dark, or the dark from light
I live but I love this life

How infinite is space and who decides your fate
Why everything will dissolve into sand
How to avoid defeat where truth and fiction meet
Why nothing ever turns out as you plan

These are things that I don't understand
Yeah, these are things that I don't understand

I can't and I can't decide
Wrong, wrong from right
Day, or the day from night
Or dark, or the dark from light
I live but I love this life

Speed Of Sound - Coldplay

How long before I get in
Before it starts before I begin
How long before you decide
Before I know what it feels like
Where to, where do I go
If you never try then you'll never know
How long do I have to climb
Up on the side of this mountain of mine

Look up, I look up at night
Planets are moving at the speed of light 
Climb up, up in the trees
Every chance that you get is a chance you seize
How long am I gonna stand 
With my head stuck under the sand
I'll start before I can stop
Or before i see things the right way up

All that noise and all that sound
All those places i got found
And birds go flying at the speed of sound
To show you how it all began
Birds came flying from the underground
If you could see it then you'd understand

Ideas that you'll never find
All the inventors could never design
The buildings that you put up
Japan and China all lit up
A sign that I couldn't read
Or a light that I couldn't see
Some things you have to believe
Others are puzzles puzzling me 

All that noise and all that sound
All those places I got found
And birds go flying at the speed of sound 
To show you how it all began
Birds came flying from the underground
If you could see it then you'd understand
Ah when you see it then you'll understand

All those signs I knew what they meant 
Some things you can't invent
Some get made and some get sent, ooh ooh
And birds go flying at the speed of sound
To show you how it all began
Birds came flying from the underground 
If you could see it then you'd understand
Oh when you see it then you'll understand

Murder - Coldplay

Murder coming to get us
Yeah coming to get us and away we hide
Murder, see it all around us
See it all around us
And away we hide

Murder coming to get us
They're coming to get us
And away we hide
Away we hide

Tie me to a tree
Tie my hands above my head 
Sing a song to me 
Sing a song like what you said 

And they're gonna murder me 
They're gonna take me down 
Even before I sleep
I cry murder

Come spit at us 
Come and throw your weight around 
Come and fight with us 
Try and knock us to the ground 

'Cause they're gonna murder me 
They're gonna take me down 
Even before I sleep
I scream murder
Murder

Oh now what can it possibly gain
Oh what can it possibly gain
Oh now what can it possibly gain
Oh yeah what can it possibly gain

Cry murder, murder
I cry murder

Murder I'm coming to get us
I'm coming to get us
And away we hide
Murder, see it all around us
See it all around us
And away we hide
Murder coming to get us
It's coming to get us 
And away we hide
Murder, see it all around you
See it all around you
And away we hide

Animals - Coldplay

Animals we are
Disposable, collapsible and raw
In you go into some crowded room
And animals that climb
And they're climbing over you until you say
"Off you go, off you go"

Animal I am
And I'm looking for an answer just like you
But I should know which way to turn

An animal that runs
And I ran away from you because I'm scared
"Now off you go, off you go"

If you're gonna go, go now 
If you're gonna go, go now 
I forgot to tell you how 
So if you're gonna go
Go now 

Animal you are
Disposable defenceless yes and
Watch your mouth, boys watch your mouth 
An animal that runs
And I made all my excuses to you 
And I missed my chance by a stones throw

If you're gonna go, go now 
If you're gonna go, go now 
I forgot to tell you how
So if you're gonna go
Go now
Go now
Go now
Go now

And I crumble
Crumble and fall
Crumble and fall like an animal

I crumble
Crumble and fall
Crumble and fall like an animal

Yes I crumble
Crumble and fall
Crumble and fall like an animal

Yes I crumble
Crumble and fall
Crumble and fall like an animal

Crests Of Waves - Coldplay

It could be worse
I could be alone
I could be locked in here on my own
Or like a stone that suddenly drops
It never stops, no

I could be lost
Or I could be saved
Calling out from beneath the waves
Beaten down by this ocean rain
Never again
Never again

Screaming out from the crests of waves

It could be worse
Bitter or sweet
It could be snapped from the jaws of defeat
Or like a light lit up on a beach 
Wear your heart on your sleeve
Oh

You want to stop before you begin
You want to sink when you know you could swim
You want to stop just before you begin
Never give in
Never give in

Screaming out from the crests of waves

Nothing matters
Except life and the love you make
Nothing matters
Except life and the love you make
Nothing matters
Except life and the love you make
Except life and the love you make

Screaming out from the crests of waves

Screaming out from the crests of waves
You're longing to be saved
Screaming out from the crests of waves
You are longing to be saved
Screaming out from the crests of waves

I Ran Away - Coldplay

One, two, three: Will

I ran away from you 
That's all I ever do 
And though I started here 
I ran away from you
I'm gonna come on in 
And see it through

I ran away from you 
That's all I ever do
And when I heard you 
Come back to me 
And though I should stay 
I don't have the stomach to

Everyone I know 
Says I'm a fool to mess with you 
Everyone I know 
Says it's a stupid thing to do
I have your love on call 
And my belly is so full 
There might be nothing left to do 
So I ran away from you

I'm gonna come on in 
My eyes were closed
I can feel it near 
The sides so close 
I'm gonna come on out 
And burn the sky

A star arose in my own cage 
I stuck in line
And in a cage
Just a single star 
I sing for

Everyone I know 
Says I'm a fool to mess with you 
Everyone I know 
Says it's a stupid thing to do

I have your love on call 
And yet my belly is so full 
And I did not know what to do 
And so I ran away from you
