Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall - Coldplay / LIFE FOR SALE

I TURN THE MUSIC UP, I GOT MY RECORDS ON

I SHUT THE WORLD OUTSIDE UNTIL THE LIGHTS COME ON

EVERY TEARDROP IS A WATERFALL

MAYBE THE STREETS ALIGHT, MAYBE THE TREES ARE GONE

EVERY TEAR IS A WATERFALL

I TURN THE MUSIC UP I'M ON A ROLL THIS TIME

BUT MY HEART IS BEATING AND MY PULSES START

MAYBE I'M IN THE BLACK, MAYBE I'M ON MY KNEES

MAYBE I'M IN THE GAP BETWEEN THE TWO TRAPEZES

FROM UNDERNEATH THE RUBBLE SING A REBEL SONG

AS WE SOAR WALLS, EVERY SIREN IS A SYMPHONY

AND EVERY TEAR'S A WATERFALL

I'D RATHER BE A COMMA THAN A FULL STOP

 LOVE DOESN'T COST

IS A WATERFALL

CATHEDRALS IN MY HEART

 AND WE SAW OH THIS LIGHT I SWEAR YOU

AND EVERY TEAR'S A WATERFALL

 

SO YOU CAN HURT, HURT ME BAD

BUT STILL I'LL RAISE THE FLAG

UNTIL MONDAY MORNING FEELS ANOTHER LIFE



MAYBE I'M IN THE BLACK, MAYBE I'M ON MY KNEES

AND EVERY TEAR'S A WATERFALL

Coldplay lyrics

I used to rule the world

Seas would rise when I gave the word

Now in the morning I sweep alone

Sweep the streets I used to own

I used to roll the dice

Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes

Listen 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

For some reason I can't explain

Once you go there was never, never an honest word

That was when I ruled the world

It was the 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 Saint Peter will call my name

Never an honest word

But that was when I ruled the world.

Stories on Sidari Beach - Corfu Island

I picture you in the sun wondering what went wrong

And falling down on your knees asking for sympathy

And being caught in between all you wish for and all you've seen

And trying to find anything you can feel that you can believe in

I know I would apologize if I could see in your eyes

‘Cause when you showed me myself I became someone else

But I was caught in between all you wish for and all you need

I picture you fast asleep

A nightmare comes

You can’t keep awake

‘Cause if I find

If I find my own way

How much will I find

You

I don’t know anymore

What it’s for

I’m not even sure

If there is anyone who is in the sun

Will you help me to understand

‘Cause I been caught in between all you wish for and all you need

Maybe you’re not even sure what it’s for

Any more than me

(John Michael Stipe/  R.E.M. & Chris Martin/ Coldplay)
