Clocks 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 can't be named A tiger's waiting to be tamed, singing

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 Oh nothing else compares And nothing else compares

You are You are

You are You are

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

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


Don't Panic Bones sinking like stones All that we fought for Homes, places we've grown All of us are done for And we live in a beautiful world Yeah we do, yeah we do We live in a beautiful world Bones sinking like stones All that we fought for Homes, places we've grown All of us are done for We live in a beautiful world Yeah we do, yeah we do We live in a beautiful world

We live in a beautiful world Yeah we do, yeah we do We live in a beautiful world Oh, all that I know There's nothing here to run from 'Cos yeah, everybody here's got somebody to lean on


Fix You When you try your best, but you don't succeed, When you get what you want, but not what you need, When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep Stuck in reverse And the tears come streaming down your face When you lose something you can't replace When you love someone, but it goes to waste Could it be worse? Lights will guide you home And ignite your bones And I will try, to fix you And high up above or down below When you're too in love to let it go

But if you never try, you'll never know Just what you're worth. Lights will guide you home And ignite your bones And I will try, to fix you. Tears stream down your face, When you lose something you cannot replace Tears stream down your face And I... [2x] Tears stream down your face I promise you I will learn from my mistakes Tears stream down your face And I... Lights will guide you home And ignite your bones I will try to fix you...


In my place 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

Yeah, how long must you wait for it? Yeah, how long must you pay for it? Yeah, how long must you wait for it? For it, 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? 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 it.

I was scared, I was scared Tired and underprepared But I waited for it If you go, if you go Then Leave me down here on my own Then I'll wait for you, yeah

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


Speed of sound 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.

Ideas that you'll never find, All the inventors could never design. The buildings that you put up, Japan and China all lit up. The sign that I couldn't read, or a light that I couldn't see, some things you have to believe, but others are puzzles, puzzling me.

Look up, I look up at night, Planets are moving at the speed of light. Climb up, up in the trees, every chance that you get, is a chance you seize. 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.

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.

All those signs, I knew what they meant. Some things you can invent. Some get made, and some get sent, Ooh 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.


Talk Oh brother I can't, I can't get through I've been trying hard to reach you 'Cause I don't know what to do Oh brother I can't believe it's true I'm so scared about the future And I wanna talk to you Oh I wanna talk to you You could take a picture of something you see In the future where will I be? You could climb a ladder up to the sun Or write a song nobody had sung or do Something that's never been done Are you lost or incomplete? Do you feel like a puzzle, You can't find your missing piece? Tell me how do you feel Well I feel like they're talking In a language I don't speak And they're talking it to me

So you take a picture of something you see In the future where will I be? You could climb a ladder up to the sun Or write a song nobody had sung or do Something that's never been done, do Something that's never been done So you don't know where you're going And you wanna talk And you feel like you're going Where you've been before You'll tell anyone who'll listen But you feel ignored And nothing's really making any sense at all, Let's talk Let's talk, let's talk, let's talk


The Hardest Part And the hardest part Was letting go not taking part Was the hardest part And the strangest thing was waiting for that bell to ring It was the strangest start I could feel it go down Bittersweet I could taste in my mouth Silver lining the clouds Oh and I I wish that I could work it out And the hardest part Was letting go not taking part You really broke my heart And I tried to sing But I couldn't think of anything That was the hardest part

I could feel it go down You left the sweetest taste in my mouth Your silver lining the clouds Oh and I Oh and I I wonder what it's all about I wonder what it's all about Everything I know is wrong Everything I do it just comes undone And everything is torn apart Oh and it's the hardest part That's the hardest part Yeah that's the hardest part That's the hardest part


The Scientist Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry You don't know how lovely you are I had to find you, tell you I need you And tell you I set you apart Tell me your secrets and ask me your questions Oh, let's go back to the start Running in circles, coming in tails Heads on a science apart Nobody said it was easy It's such a shame for us to part Nobody said it was easy No one ever said it would be this hard Oh, take me back to the start I was just guessing at numbers and figures Pulling the puzzles apart

Questions of science, science and progress Then don't speak as loud as my heart And tell me you love me, come back and haunt me Oh, when I rush to the start Running in circles, chasing tails Coming back as we are Nobody said it was easy Oh, it's such a shame for us to part Nobody said it was easy No one ever said it would be so hard I'm going back to the start


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 own

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 used to roll the dice Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes Listened as the crowd would sing "Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing Roman Cavalry choirs are singing Be my mirror, my sword and shield My missionaries in a foreign field

One minute I held the key Next the walls were closed on me And I discovered that my castles stand Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

For some reason I can't explain I know Saint Peter won't call my name Never an honest word But that was when I ruled the world

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing Roman Cavalry choirs is singing Be my mirror, my sword and shield My missionaries in a foreign field For some reason I can't explain Once you'd gone there was never Never an honest word That was when I ruled the world It was the wicked and 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

Oh, oh, oooh, oh, oh, oh(5x) Hear Jerusalem bells are ringing Roman Cavalry choirs are singing Be my mirror, my sword and shield My missionaries in a foreign field For some reason I can't explain I know Saint Peter won't call my name Never an honest word But that was when I ruled the world


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

I drew a line, I drew a line for you, Oh what a thing to do, And it was all yellow

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

And your skin, Oh yeah your skin and bones, Turn into something beautiful, Do you know? For you I'd bleed myself dry, For you I'd bleed myself dry

So then I took my turn, Oh what a thing to've done, And it was all Yellow Your skin Oh yeah, your skin and bones, Turn into something beautiful, Do 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,

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
