Prospekt’s March / Poppyfields Songtext
von Coldplay

Smoke is rising from the houses
People burying their dead
I ask somebody what the time is
But time doesn′t matter to them yet

People talking without speaking
Trying to take what they can get
I ask you if you remember
Prospekt, how could I forget?


Drums, here it comes
Don't you wish that life can be as simple
As fish swimming ′round in a barrel?
When you've got the gun
Oh, when I run
Here it comes
We're just two little figures in a soup bowl
Trying to get to any kind of control
But I wasn′t one

Now here I lie on my own in a separate sky
And here I lie on my own in a separate sky
I don′t wanna die on my own here tonight
But here I lie on my own in a separate sky
