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 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
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh 

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 starts 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
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh 

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 the 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 breaking on your horizon
Come on love
Stay with me

Violet Hill - Coldplay

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 the fog Became God

Priests clutched onto bibles
And went out to fit their rifles
And the cross was held aloft

Bury me in honor
When i′m dead and hit the ground

A love back home unfolds
If you love me
Won′t you let me know

I don′t want to be a soldier
With the captain of some sinking ship
With snow 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

So if you love me
Won′t you let me know
If you love me
Won′t you let me know
