"Coldplay - Violet Hill"
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 fox
Became God
Priests clutched onto bibles
Hollowed out to fit their rifles
And the cross was held aloft
Bury me in armor
When I'm dead and hit the ground
My nerves are poles that unfroze
If you love me
Won't you let me know?
(Guitar Solo)
I don't want to be a soldier
That a captain of some sinking ship
Would stow, 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
Said, if you love me
Won't you let me know?
If you love me,
Won't you let me know?


"Coldplay - Viva La Vida"
I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to rule
I used to roll the dice
Feel the feeling 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 worlds were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
I hear terrorist and the bells are ringing
Roman can't be quiet, she said it
Females nearing my soul can see her
A missionary's in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
Once you go it was never
Never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world
It was a wicket of 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 terrorist and the bells are ringing
Roman can't be quiet, she said it
Females nearing my soul can see her
A missionary's in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter will call my name
And around this word
But that was when I ruled the world
I hear terrorist and the bells are ringing
Roman can't be quiet, she said it
Females nearing my soul can see her
A missionary's in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter will call my name
And around this word
But that was when I ruled the world
