V.L.V.O.D.A.A.H.F.

This isn't much of a update, if it is an update at all.
Clearly, i'm horribly addicted to this song.
"Violet Hill" by the British band, Coldplay
Well, then again, i've always been a huge Coldplay fan, and get addicted easily to their songs.
Truthfully, when they said their new album would have a different sound from their other 3 albums, i was worried. (remember linkin park? yes. i ABHOR their latest album. total rubbish. i digress) Anyways, when Violet Hill was announced to be released and free for download, as all loyal Coldplay fans would, i downloaded the song (from the official source. i swear!)and my fears was definitely mis-placed.
I love their new song. (more like Love kookie and kreame ice cream sorta love. not so much the man-on-man love) Indeed, their song sounds different from their previous works (to an extent), but still, when Martin starts singing, his haunting voice reassures me that Coldplay is still Coldplay. The beloved piano is still there, the haunting voice, the echoing lyrics. Ah. It's good to hear new styles fused with the old. Only a month or so before their album, Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends is released. Can't wait to hear what other changes they made to their sound.

Without further delay, Syprux's Haunting Melodrama presents, Violet Hill by Coldplay, taken from their upcoming 4th album, Viva la Vida or Death And All His Friends

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?
