Violet Hill isn't still feels like Coldplay to me which was what I was most afraid would happen in this album.
These are the lyrics.....
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 fog
Became God
Priests clutched onto bibles
And went out to fit their rifles
And the cross was held aloft
Bury me in honor
When i'm dead and hit the ground
A love back home unfolds
If you love me
Won't you let me know?
(Guitar Solo)
I don't want to be a soldier
With the captain of some sinking ship
With snow, 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
So if you love me
Won't you let me know?
If you love me,
Won't you let me know?
My weekend went well with good company. I still had rather difficult moments feeling as if my own soul was experiencing convulsions. Living is rather nauseating right now and still seems more like chore than a miraculous gift from God. But I try to focus my mind on the truth of this life. Watching life can become very incapacitating emotionally when you take in all the pain that as humans we inflict on ourselves. I ask God now that he give me the grace to remind me to run to him and remember He is there. Despite how alone and misunderstood I am, God is there.
