COLDPLAY

- Clocks Lyrics

The lights go out and I can't be saved
Tides that I tried to swim against
Have brought me down upon my knees
Oh I beg, I beg and plead singing

Come out of things unsaid
Shoot an apple off my head
And a trouble that can't be named
A tiger's waiting to be tamed singing

You are
You are

Confusion never stops
Closing walls and ticking clocks
Gonna come back and take you home
I could not stop that you now know singing

Come out upon my seas
Cursed missed opportunities
Am I a part of the cure?
Or am I part of the disease? Singing

You are
You are
You are
You are

You are
You are

And nothing else compares
And nothing else compares
And nothing else compares

You are
You are

Home, home where I wanted to go
Home, home where I wanted to go
Home, home where I wanted to go
Home, home where I wanted to go

What is the meaning behind Clocks lyrics?


When we look deeper into its meaning, Coldplay’s 'Clocks' is a song that exposes inner battles, lost chances, and the craving for understanding and guidance in one's life. It is very claustrophobic and time-related images like 'closing walls and ticking clocks' are a mainstay of the song's lyrics. The singer is stuck and feels there is no time left for him. The repetition of 'You are' points to the search for identity and purpose in the midst of the uncertainty. Clocks lyrics mainly express depression, love lost, and despair, together with introspection and solitude. Along with despair and struggle, the song brings about confusion and uncertainty, search for identity and longing for home. The lyrics embody the themes of confusion and longing, which might be too heavy for very small kids. Although the song does not contain any direct mentions of violence, sex, or drug use, its emotional depth and complexity of themes still suggest parental guidance.

This song is beautiful. The first time I heard it, I sat, nearly in tears. It describes so much about life: being lost, and wondering who you are and looking for answers. So pure and beautiful.

This is one of my favourite songs. It reminds me a lot of the Professor Layton series, for some reason.
