Track Lyrics
Hurts Like Heaven Lyrics
[Introduction]
[Verse 1]
Written in graffiti on a bridge in a park
"Do you ever get the feeling that you're missing the mark?"
It's so cold, it's so cold
It's so cold, it's so cold
Written up in marker on a factory sign
"I struggle with the feeling that my life isn't mine"
It's so cold, it's so cold
It's so cold, it's so cold
See the arrow they shot trying to tear us apart
Took the fire from my belly and the beat from my heart
Still, I won't let go
Still, I won't let go
[Pre-Chorus]
Of you
'Cause you do
[Chorus]
Oh, you use your heart as a weapon
And it hurts like heaven
[Verse 2]
On every street, every car, every surface, a name
Tonight, the streets are ours and we're writing and saying
"Don't let 'em take control"
No, we won't let 'em take control
Yes, I feel a little bit nervous
Yes, I feel nervous and I cannot relax
How come they're out to get us?
How come they're out when they don't know the facts?
So on a concrete canvas under cover of dark
On a concrete canvas, I'll go making my mark
Armed with a spray can soul
I'll be armed with a spray can soul
[Pre-Chorus]
And you
Oh, you
[Chorus]
'Cause you use your heart as a weapon
And it hurts like heaven
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
Oh, oh
Yeah, it's true
When you use your heart as a weapon
Then it hurts like heaven
[Outro]
Oh, it hurts like heaven
Paradise Lyrics
[Intro]
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
[Verse 1]
When she was just a girl
She expected the world
But it flew away from her reach
So she ran away in her sleep
[Chorus]
And dreamed of para-, para-, paradise
Para-, para-, paradise
Para-, para-, paradise
Every time she closed her eyes
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
[Verse 2]
When she was just a girl
She expected the world
But it flew away from her reach
And the bullets catch in her teeth
[Pre-Chorus]
Life goes on, it gets so heavy
The wheel breaks the butterfly
Every tear, a waterfall
In the night, the stormy night, she'd close her eyes
In the night, the stormy night, away she'd fly
[Chorus]
And dream of para-, para-, paradise
Para-, para-, paradise
Para-, para-, paradise
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
She'd dream of para-, para-, paradise
Para-, para-, paradise
Para-, para-, paradise
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
[Bridge]
La, la-la, la-la-la
La, la-la, la-la-la
La, la-la, la-la-la, la-la
So lying underneath those stormy skies
She said, "Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, I know the sun must set to rise"
[Chorus]
This could be para-, para-, paradise
Para-, para-, paradise
This could be para-, para-, paradise
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
This could be para-, para-paradise
Para-, para-, paradise
This could be para-, para-, paradise
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
This could be para-, para-, paradise
This could be para-, para-, paradise
This could be para-, para-, paradise
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
[Outro]
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Charlie Brown Lyrics
[Intro]
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
[Verse 1]
Stole a key
Took a car downtown where the lost boys meet
Took a car downtown and took what they offered me
To set me free
I saw the lights go down at the end of the scene
Saw the lights go down and standing in front of me
[Interlude]
Ooh-ooh-ooh
[Verse 2]
In my scarecrow dreams
When they smash my heart into smithereens
Be a bright red rose come bursting the concrete
Be a cartoon heart
Light a fire, a fire, a spark
Light a fire, a flame in my heart
We'll run wild, we'll be glowing in the dark
[Interlude]
Ooh-ooh-ooh
We'll be glowing in the dark
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ah-ooh
[Bridge]
All the boys, all the girls, all that matters in the world
All the boys, all the girls, all the madness that occurs
All the highs, all the lows as the room a-spinning goes
We'll run riot, we'll be glowing in the dark
[Interlude]
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ah
[Outro]
So we'll soar
Luminous and wired, we'll be glowing in the dark
Us Against the World Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Oh, morning come bursting the clouds, amen
Lift off this blindfold, let me see again
Bring back the water, let your ships roll in
In my heart, she left a hole
The tightrope that I’m walking just sways and ties
The Devil as he's talking with those angel's eyes
And I just want to be there when the lightning strikes
And the saints go marching in
[Chorus]
And sing
Slow it down
Through chaos as it swirls
It's us against the world
[Verse 2]
Like a river to a raindrop, I lost a friend
My drunken hazard Daniel in a lion's den
And tonight, I know it all has to begin again
So whatever you do, don’t let go
And if we could float away
Fly up to the surface and just start again
Lift off before trouble just erodes us in the rain
Just erodes us in the rain
Just erodes us and see roses in the rain, saying
[Chorus]
Slow it down
Slow it down
Through chaos as it swirls
It's us against the world
[Outro]
Through chaos as it swirls
It's us against the world
Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I turn the music up, I got my records on
I shut the world outside until the lights come on
Maybe the streets alight, maybe the trees are gone
I feel my heart start beatin' to my favorite song
And all the kids they dance, all the kids all night
Until Monday mornin' feels another life
I turn the music up, I'm on a roll this time
And Heaven is in sight
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 2]
I turn the music up, I got my records on
From underneath the rubble, sing a rebel song
Don't want to see another generation drop
I'd rather be a comma than a full stop
Maybe I'm in the black, maybe I'm on my knees
Maybe I'm in the gap between the two trapezes
But my heart is beating and my pulses start
Cathedrals in my heart
[Pre-Chorus]
As we saw, woah, this light
I swear you emerge, blinking in to
To tell me it's alright
As we soar walls
Every siren is a symphony
[Chorus]
And every tear's a waterfall
Is a waterfall, oh, is a waterfall, oh-oh-oh
Is a—, is a waterfall
Every teardrop is a—, is a waterfall, oh-oh-oh
[Bridge]
So you can hurt, hurt me bad
But still I'll raise the flag
Ooh, it was a waterfall, a waterfall
[Outro]
(Yeah!) Every tear, every tear, every teardrop is a waterfall
(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh) Every tear, every tear, every teardrop is a waterfall
(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh) Every tear, every tear, every teardrop is a waterfall
Every tear, every tear, every teardrop is a waterfall
Every tear, every tear, every teardrop is a waterfall
Major Minus Lyrics
[Verse 1]
They got one eye watching you
One eye on what you do
So be careful who it is you're talking to
They got one eye watching you
One eye on what you do
So be careful what it is you're trying to do
And be careful when you're walking into view
Just be careful when you're walking into view
[Hook]
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Got one eye on the road and one on you
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Got one eye on the road and one on
[Verse 2]
They got one eye watching you
And one eye on what you do
So be careful 'cause nothing they say is true
No, don't believe a word
It's just us against the world
And we just got to turn up to be heard
Hear the crocodiles ticking 'round the world
Hear those crocodiles ticking, they go ticking 'round the world
[Hook]
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Got one eye on the road and one on you
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Got one eye on the road and one on
[Bridge]
You could hear them climbing the stairs
I got my right side fighting while my left hides under the chairs
[Hook]
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Got one eye on the road and one on you
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Got one eye on the road and one on
U.F.O. Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Lord, I don't know which way I am going
Which way the river going to flow
It just seems that upstream, I keep rowing
Still got such a long way to go
Still got such a long way to go
[Verse 2]
Then that light hits your eye
I know, I swear
We'll find somewhere
The streets are paved with gold
Bullets fly, split the sky
But that's alright, sometimes
Sunlight comes streaming through the holes
[Outro]
Ooh, ooh
Princess of China Lyrics
[Intro: Rihanna]
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
[Verse 1: Chris Martin]
Once upon a time, somebody ran
Somebody ran away saying fast as I can
I've got to go, I've got to go
Once upon a time, we fell apart
You're holding in your hands the two halves of my heart
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
[Interlude: Rihanna]
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
[Verse 2: Rihanna, Rihanna & Chris Martin]
Once upon a time, we burned bright
Now all we ever seem to do is fight
On and on
And on and on and on
Once upon a time on the same side
Once upon a time on the same side
In the same game
Now why'd you have to go
Have to go and throw water on my flame?
[Chorus: Rihanna]
I could've been a princess, you'd be a king
Could've had a castle, and worn a ring
But no, you let me go
I could've been a princess, you'd be a king
Could've had a castle, and worn a ring
But no, you let me go
[Post-Chorus: Chris Martin & Rihanna]
You stole my star
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
You stole my star
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
[Bridge: Rihanna]
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
[Outro: Chris Martin & Rihanna]
'Cause you really hurt me
No, you really hurt me
'Cause you really hurt me
No, you really hurt me
'Cause you really hurt me
Oh, you really hurt me, oh
'Cause you really hurt me
Oh, you really hurt me
Up in Flames Lyrics
[Verse 1]
So it's over
This time, I know it's gone
Saltwater
Tasted it too long
I only know I'm wrong
Now I know it's gone
[Hook]
Up in flames
Up in flames
Up in flames
We have slowly gone
[Verse 2]
So it's over
This time, you're flying on
This time, I know no song
Can't stop its lonely burn
Can't stop it slowly going
[Hook]
Up in flames
Up in flames
Up in flames
We have slowly gone
[Hook]
Up in flames
Up in flames
Up in flames
We have slowly gone
Oh, we have slowly gone
[Outro]
Can we pour some water on?
Don’t Let It Break Your Heart Lyrics
[Verse 1]
And if I lost the map
If I lost it all
Or fell into the trap
Then she'd call
[Chorus 1]
When you're tired of racing and you
Found you never left the start
Come on, baby, don’t let it break your heart
[Verse 2]
Though heavily we bled
Still, on we crawl
Trying to catch a cannonball
And a slow burning tide
Through my veins is flowing
From my shipwreck, I heard her call
And she sang
[Chorus 2]
When you're tired of aiming your arrows
Still, you never hit the mark, oh-oh
And even in your rains and shadows
Still, we're never gonna part, oh-oh
Come on, baby, don’t let it break your heart
[Hook]
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh
Don’t let it break your heart
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh
Don’t let it break your heart
[Outro]
Don't let it break your heart
Up With the Birds Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The birds they sang
The break of day
Start again, I hear them say
It's so hard to just walk away
The birds they sang
All a choir
Start again, a little higher
It's a spark in a sea of grey
[Chorus 1]
The sky is blue
Dreamed that lie 'til it's true
Then taking back the punch I threw
My arms turn wings
Oh, those clumsy things
Send me up to that wonderful world
And then, I'm up with the birds
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
Might have to go, where they don't know my name
Float all over the world just to see her again
But I won't show or feel any pain
Even though all my armor might rust in the rain
[Chorus 2]
A simple plot
But I know, one day
Good things are coming our way
A simple plot
But I know, one day
Good things are coming our way
[Outro]
Oh, yeah
