Fix You

When you try your best but you don't succeed
When you get what you want but not what you need
When you feel so tired but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse.

And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

And high up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try you'll never know
Just what you're worth

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Tears stream, down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down your face and I...

Tears stream, down your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down your face and I...

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you.

I feel like this song is singing about something spiritual. So many Coldplay songs sound like they are written by someone who is searching for something... I find them moving, emotional, and relevant. This one especially because it reminds me of my feelings when I lived in Belfast and had to leave the people there when my year with Youth for Christ was over. I wanted to help fix them, I wanted to be a part of the revival. But obviously the Lord is the One to do that, not me. I hope that my faith that God will finish what He's begun will be true with Northern Ireland.
