Off Topic: Good lyrics

[rd42]

Some time you hear a song that touches you and makes you think of others in similar circumstances. The first four lines really home, but I thought I would share the whole song.

Band: Coldplay
Album: X & Y
Song: Fix You

When you try your best but you don't succeed
When you get what you want but not what you need
When you feel so tired but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse.

When 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
And I will try to fix you

And high up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try you'll never know
"Just what your worth"

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

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

Tears stream, down on 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.

Olsen, I was about to post the same link! Thanks.

Great lyrics, a simple but powerful song.

Nearly 3M people have viewed that YouTube video link in only 1 year!
The communication power of the Iternet is quite incredible and equally quite disturbing!

Keane - She has no time, used in a UK Cancer ad, very powerful :

You think your days are uneventful
And no one ever thinks about you
She goes her own way
She goes her own way
You think your days are ordinary
And no one ever thinks about you
But we're all the same
And she can hardly breathe without you

She says she has no time
For you now
She says she has no time

Think about the lonely people
Then think about the day she found you
Or lie to yourself
And see it all dissolve around you

She says she has no time
For you now
She says she has no time
For you now
She says she has no time

Lonely people tumble downwards
My heart opens up to you
When she says

She says she has no time
For you now
She says she has no time
For you now

This poem from "Brand" by Henrik Ibsen, stays in my mind this last year. It gives me comfort and courage to go on, enjoying my life the way it is right now. To see it all from High Above .

My friend,BEMM, here in Neurotalk have been helping me ,translating it.
She is my "heavenblue" lady from Denmark.

Soul, be faithful till the end.
Victory of victory is losing all.
Losing all that you have created,
only what´s lost is forever yours.
