[color=teal-green]oh no, I see
a spiderweb is tangled up with me
and I lost my head
and thought of all the stupid things I'd said

oh no, what's this?
a spiderweb and I'm caught in the middle
so I turned to run
and thought of all the stupid things I'd done

and I never meant to cause you trouble
and I never never meant to do you wrong
ah, well if I ever caused you trouble
oh no I never meant to do you harm

oh no, I see
a spiderweb and it's me in the middle
so I twist and turn
but here am I in my little bubble

singing and I never meant to cause you trouble
and I never meant to do you wrong
ah, well if I ever caused you trouble
oh no I never meant to do you harm

they spun a web for me
they spun a web for me
they spun a web for me[/color]



:slant: I love this song. I think Coldplay has to have some of the best lyrics out there. Anyway... just revisting "Parachutes" and this song just played... made feel melancholic. [color=teal-green]A spider-web and it's me in the middle[/color]. That's so how I feel today. What lyrics define your mood today?

These are the lyrics that define my mood today...not about John and me though, so don't worry...


"Caterwaul" by Ryan Adams

How can I explain to you
What you did to me with words
Words just like the ones you used
They mean nothing at all to you
They caterwaul, caterwaul, caterwaul
Through my lonely hall

Ridiculous and unforgiving
In the way you destroy me
With words like yours, who needs words
They mean nothing at all
They caterwaul, caterwaul, caterwaul
Through my lonely hall

Caterwaul
Caterwaul
Caterwaul
 
Stuck on the end of this ball and chain
And I'm on my way back down again
Stood on a bridge, tied to a noose
Sick to the stomach
You can say what you mean
But it won't change a thing
I'm sick of the secrets

Stood on the edge
Tied to a noose
You came along
And you cut me loose.
 
Coldplay of course!

This is my song for the day:

A Warning Sign

A warning sign
I missed the good part then I realised
I started looking and the bubble burst
I started looking for excuses

Come on in
I've got to tell you what a state I'm in
I've got to tell you in my loudest tones
That I started looking for a warning sign

When the truth is
I miss you
Yeah the truth is
That I miss you so.

A warning sign
You came back to haunt me and I realised
That you were an island and I passed you by
When you were an island to discover

Come on in
I've got to tell you what a state I'm in
I've got to tell you in my loudest tones
That I started looking for a warning sign

When the truth is
I miss you
Yeah the truth is
That I miss you so

And I'm tired
I should not have let you go

So I crawl back into your open arms
Yes I crawl back into your open arms
And I crawl back into your open arms
Yes I crawl back into your open arms
 
True for so many reasons. :| I :heart: Coldplay.

In My Place

In my place, in my place,
Were lines that I couldn't change,
I was lost, oh yeah.

I was lost, I was lost,
Crossed lines I shouldn't have crossed,
I was lost, oh yeah.

And yeah, how long must you wait for it?
Yeah, how long must you pay for it?
Yeah, how long must you wait for it?

I was scared, I was scared,
Tired and under prepared,
But I wait for it.

And if you go, if you go,
Leave me down here on my own,
Then I'll wait for you, yeah.

Yeah, how long must you wait for it?
Yeah, how long must you pay for it?
Yeah, how long must you wait for it?
Oh for it

Sing it please, please, please,
Come back and sing to me,
To me, me.

Come on and sing it out, now, now.
Come on and sing it out
To me, me
Come on and sing.

In my place, in my place,
Were lines that I couldn't change,
I was lost, oh yeah.
Oh yeah.

:scream: :sad: :scream:

:sigh:
 
:slant: You know, almost every song of theirs has something I can relate to in it.
It's funny (or sad), but on the plane on my way back from Montreal in Nov. I was bawling my eyes out the whole way... trying to write a letter. *sigh Anyway, I had "A Rush of Blood to the Head" on in my discman and listened to it over and over... You should have seen all the quotes I wrote down. *Pathetic I know. Thank goodness I never sent the letter, lol.

"Warning Sign" has got to be one of the greatest tunes.

Oh god. me too. I shiver. When I first heard the song - which was the same time I first saw the video - I got the biggest lump in my throat - so big that when I pushed it back down, I made this big gulping noise, which then made my eyes teary and red.

My boyfriend patted my back, .. he knew what the song was putting me through. :sigh:
 
A Warning Sign has been my song ever since i heard it. i am reduced to tears pratically everytime i hear it. it sums up how i feel right now with my situation. I love Chris's lyrics and his voice and how you can feel the emotional pain when he sings it. Coldplay is a fantastic band. i am sure i will be crying at this concert. I travel with Parachutes when i am on the road. It relaxes me on the plane and puts me to sleep at night. While i was on the porch the other night, i had the Cd on. It was about 11PM in the desert. i was staring up at the sky, drinking my hot tea in my PJ's thinking about my life and what this year has in store for me. I almost feel asleep on the deck it was so peaceful and relaxing. *sigh*

I couldn't agree more. I was thinking the other day, how great it would be if all the IO'ers could get together. Damn that would be fun.
And YES April, I couldn't agree with you more too! I will subscribe soon. I *do* owe you an email though. :)

And lastly... I think this lyric might be with me longer than I wish it to:

So meet me by the bridge, meet me by the lane
When am I gonna see that pretty face again
Meet me on the road, meet me where I said

Blame it all upon
A rush of blood to the head...

here is another Coldplay song that i can't let go of:

I Bloom Blaum

Darling, those tired eyes
Go with me all the time
And in the dead of night
Tell me you will be mine
Where do you go to, pretty babe
Where do you go to when the night wins away well
Ask me so sweetly, what do i do
Who do i sing for
Well honey i sing about you
You



______
gah! *sigh*
 
I had this on repeat all last week

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 silence 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 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
 
and finally my last Coldplay song that describes my feelings on a daily basis:

Sparks

Did I drive you away?
I know what you?ll say,
You say, ?Oh, sing one we know,?
But I promise you this,
I?ll always look out for you,
That?s what I?ll do.

I say ?oh,?, I say ?oh.?

My heart is yours,
It?s you that I hold on to,
That?s what I do,
And I know I was wrong,
But I won?t let you down,
(Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah I will, yes I will?)

I say ?oh,? I cry ?oh.?

Yeah I saw sparks,
Yeah I saw sparks,
And I saw sparks,
Yeah I saw sparks,

Sing it out.

La, la, la, la, oh?
La, la, la, la, oh?
La, la, la, la, oh?
 
i love see you soon. it always gets me all :sad:

So you lost your trust,
And you never should have, you never should have,
But don't break your back,
If you ever see this,
Don't answer that.
In a bullet proof vest,
With the windows all closed,
I'll be doing my best,
I'll see you soon,
In a telescope lens,
And when all you want is friends,
I'll see you soon.
So they came for you,
They came snapping at your heels,
They come snapping at you heels,
But don't break your back,
If you ever see this,
Don't answer that.
In a bullet proof vest,
With the windows all closed,
I'll be doing my best,
I'll see you soon,
In a telescope lens,
And when all you want is friends,
I'll see you soon,
I'll see you soon.
I know you lost your trust,
I know you lost your trust,
Don't lose your trust,
I know you lost your trust.
