- Yes LyricsWhen it started we had high hopes
Now my back's on the line, my back's on the ropes
When it started we were alright
But night makes a fool of us in daylight
There we were dying of frustration
Saying, "Lord lead me not into temptation"
But it's not easy when she turns you on
Since they've gone
If you'd only, if you'd only say yes
Whether you will's anybody's guess
God only God knows I'm trying my best
But I'm just so tired of this loneliness
So up they picked me by the big toe
I was held from the rooftop, then they let it go
If there's any screaming let the windows down
As I crawl to the ground
If you'd only, if you'd only say yes
Whether you will's anybody's guess
God only God knows she won't let me rest
But I'm just so tired of this loneliness
I've become so tired of this loneliness

✔️
When we look at what the artist truly meant to say, Coldplay's 'Yes' presents the inner turmoil of a dying relationship through the metaphor of sleep and the conflict between urging, and lack of patience. Yes lyrics reveal mostly solitude, despair, angst, reflection, and heartbreak. At the same time, the song feeds on the core of these feelings: on one hand, frustration and temptation, loneliness and despair, escape through sleep and sacrifice and crucifixion on the other hand. The lyrics speak to themes of frustration and desperation, and loneliness which may be quite intense for younger audiences. Also, there are allusions to sin and temptation which can be seen as mature themes. The reiteration of 'loneliness' and the picture of being 'crucified' while one is asleep, contribute to the already somber character of the lyrics, thereby making it more appropriate for an adult audience.

Coldplay rocks, but me as a 6th grader hearing this creeps me out. The guitar& music rocks but lyrics give me shivers.
