Coldplay Clocks[England] Lyrics
1.Clocks(Edit)

The lights go out and I can't be saved
Tides that I tried to swim against
Have brought me down upon my knees
Oh I beg, I beg and plead singing

Come out of things unsaid
Shoot an apple off my head and a
Trouble that cant be named
A tiger's waiting to be tamed singing

You are
You are

Confusion never stops
Closing walls and ticking clocks
Gonna come back and take you home
I could not stop that you now know singing

Come out upon my seas,
Cursed missed opportunities
Am I a part of the cure
Or am I part of the disease, singing

You are, you are, you are
You are, you are, you are

And nothing else compares
And nothing else compares
And nothing else compares

You are
You are

Home, home where I wanted to go
Home, home where I wanted to go
Home, home where I wanted to go
Home, home where I wanted to go


2.Crests of Waves

It could be worse
I could be alone
I could be locked in here on my own
Like a stone that suddenly drops
It never stops, no
I could be lost
Or I could be saved
Calling out from beneath the waves
Beaten down by this ocean rain
Never again
Never again
Ohhh, Ohhhhhhhhh, Ohhhhhhhhh
Ohhh, Ohhhhhhhhh, Ohhhhhhhhh
Ohhh, Ohhhhhhhhh, Ohhhhhhhhh
Screaming out from the crests of waves
It could be worse
Bitter or sweet
It could be snapped from the jaws of defeat
Like a light lit upon a beach
Wear your heart on your sleeve
Oh
You want to stop before you begin
You want to sink when you know you could swim
You want to stop just before you begin
Never give in
Never give in
Ohhh, Ohhhhhhhhh, Ohhhhhhhhh
Ohhh, Ohhhhhhhhh, Ohhhhhhhhh
Ohhh, Ohhhhhhhhh, Ohhhhhhhhh
Screaming out from the crests of waves
Nothing matters
Except life and the love you make
Nothing matters
Except life and the love you make
Nothing matters
Except life and the love you make
Except life and the love you make
Ohhh, Ohhhhhhhhh, Ohhhhhhhhh
Ohhh, Ohhhhhhhhh, Ohhhhhhhhh
Ohhh, Ohhhhhhhhh, Ohhhhhhhhh
Screaming out from the crests of waves
Ohhh, Ohhhhhhhhh, Ohhhhhhhhh
Ohhh, Ohhhhhhhhh, Ohhhhhhhhh
Ohhh, Ohhhhhhhhh, Ohhhhhhhhh
Screaming out from the crests of waves
Where your longing to be saved
Screaming out from the crests of waves
Where your longing to be saved
Screaming out from the crests of waves


3.Animals

Animals we are
Disposable, collapsable and raw,
In you go into some crowded room

And animals that climb
And they're climbing over you until you say
'Off you go, off you go'

Animal I am
And I'm looking for an answer just like you
I should know which way to turn

An animal that runs,
And I ran away from you because I'm scared
'Off you go, off you go'

If you're gonna go, go now
If you're gonna go, go now
I forgot to tell you now
So if you're gonna go
Go now

Animal you are
Disposable, defenceless yes and
Watch your mouth, boys watch your mouth

I'm an animal that runs,
And I made all my excuses to you
And I missed my chance by a stones throw

If you're gonna go, go now
If you're gonna go, go now
I forgot to tell you now
So if you're gonna go
Go now
Go now
Go now
Go now

One

Now crumble
Crumble and fall
Crumble and fall like an animal

Yes I crumble
Crumble and fall
Crumble and fall like an animal

Yes I crumble
Crumble and fall
Crumble and fall like an animal

Yes I crumble
Crumble and fall
Crumble and fall like an animal


4.Yellow(Live)

Look at the stars,
Look how they shine for you,
And everything you do,
Yeah, they were all yellow.

I came along,
I wrote a song for you,
And all the things you do,
And it was called 'Yellow.'

So then I took my turn,
Oh what a thing to have done,
And it was all 'Yellow.'

Your skin
Oh yeah, your skin and bones,
Turn into something beautiful,
You know, you know I love you so,
You know I love you so.

I swam across,
I jumped across for you,
Oh what a thing to do.

Cos you were all 'Yellow,'
I drew a line,
I drew a line for you,
Oh what a thing to do,
And it was all 'Yellow.'

Your skin,
Oh yeah your skin and bones,
Turn into something beautiful,
And you know for you,
I'd bleed myself dry for you,
I'd bleed myself dry.

It's true, look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine for,
Look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine.

Look at the stars,
Look how they shine for you,
And all the things that you do.


5.In My Place(Live)

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 back and sing.

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