Speed of SOund - Coldplay
Its just not the lyrics. The passion in the music? and the voice?
Puts me intantly in love with the song and with myself everytime i listen to it. Not just this song, there is a list of them. The fact that they are not some drab lyrics typical of a bollywood song, but actual thoughts put in words( atleast as close as they can get to it). Feels as if they are directly talking to ur mind,not even you ...
Everytime it feels like it is a different song that iam listening to, a theme so personal to me and specific to the state of mind iam in at that time. A theme that iam so in need ...
Iam instantly drawn out of the whole location where ever iam, be it colleagues, office, work, time... nothing can hold me back.
The theme that i now see, fighting with my ownself to start to begin to explore to believe... yet unsure, frail .. a push ...then cringe..then start out ....then win .. then fly ...fly at the speed of the sound ... fly along that bird that has shown you how it all began, how its gonna be all smiple and easy ...
Chrismartin( the author of this song), could he have really meant all that? or is it only me ? Could anyone be so poetic? O:-) Can anyone talk so perfectly to someone so out of time, out of place, out of mind, and yet make them feel as if they know what exactly you feel like, and know what you are thinking?
Is it the music that is done before and later the song is woven into it? or is it the other way round, lyrics first and then music? I really wanna see them create, see them have these thoughts in their minds and then put it in words, may be then i will believe. he he no, i still believe.
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?
.
.
How long am I gonna stand,
with my head stuck under the sand?
I'll start before I can stop,
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,
ah when you see it then you'll understand?
Everyone can have their own take on these lyrics i guess and solve that puzzle how ever they see fit.
