Sparks~ Coldplay
Things I discover no longer surprise me….
But my nonchalance surprises me…
Unaffected….
I stare now at decadence ……. and stay unmoved by it……
My reactions subdued…
Temper tamed….
“Did I drive you away?
I know what you’ll say
You say, “Oh, sing one we know”
But I promise you this
I’ll always look out for you
That’s what I’ll do”
No element of surprise left…….
Overwhelming emotions died a poisoned death…..
How can one be so underwhelmed by life?
“I saw sparks”
I remember when I was young I saw a notebook filled with my mother’s writings….. I was much too young to know what it was …… but something tells me it was filled with quotes….. what kind I do not know…. wish I knew what happened to that notebook…..
You have to love quotes….. there are loads of vague ones in my head from the telly, books, movies ….. but there is one by John Steinbeck which goes “What a frightening thing is the human, a mass of gauges and dials and registers, and we can only read a few and those perhaps not accurately” …. I confess I cannot read people…. It took me good number of years to realise that…..
People either love Coldplay or hate them….. and then there are the other kind….. people like me who can’t quite place them…
Trouble by Coldplay
” I never meant to cause you trouble,
And I never meant to do you wrong,
And I, well if I ever caused you trouble,
O no, I never meant to do you harm”
Impressions…. Interpretations…… Cycles…. Phases……. Complexities…… Complications…..
“O no, I see,
I spun a web, it’s tangled up with me,
And I lost my head,
The thought of all the stupid things I said”
You don’t have to be a rocket scientist to get this song… and thats what I like about it….. Its simplicity & honesty…..
A bubble bath and some retrospection…….. and this song in the background…..
