Though Will Champion, drummer of Coldplay wrote this song, I still want to say that Chris Martin is one of the most brilliant songwriter I know that’s why I adore their band’s music.
This has officially become a new favorite feel good song of mine. It’s beautifully created. You really know that it’s a good song when once you heard the start and you get the feeling that you like it already. I think this song is about a couple standing strong against the people around them trying to tear their relationship apart but still, they believe in each other and their heart is their only weapon no matter how it hurts. It’s their love that shields them.
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 that they shot, trying to tear us apart
Take the fire from my belly and the beat from my heartStill I won’t let go
Still I won’t let go
Of You
Oh you, use your heart as a weapon
And it hurts like heaven
On every street, every car, every surface a nameTonight the streets are ours and we’re writing and saying
‘Don’t let them take control
No, we won’t let them 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 concrete canvas under cover of dark
On a concrete canvas, I go making my mark
Armed with the spray can soul
I’ll be armed with the spray can soul
