The Man Who Swears
Coldplay Lyrics
EP: "Kaleidoscope" (2017)
There's a man who swears he's God
But I'm pretty sure he's not
There's a man who walks around
Like he owns the fucking lot
There's a man who takes his time
From the hands of a cuckoo clock
You can hear him walk around
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock
At first, it was easy
But now why's it have to be so hard?
Heaven is a fire escape
You try to cling to in the dark
At first it was simple
But now it got too complicated
But the world just got a lovely time
Or blame it all on my mistake
Maybe I'll find heaven
One day, after dark
Maybe you'll find heaven is a place to part?
[?]
We are doing everything we can
We still can't seem to switch it on
[?]
I am floating up beneath the clouds
[?]
But I'm pretty sure he's not
There's a man who walks around
Like he owns the fucking lot
There's a man who takes his time
From the hands of a cuckoo clock
You can hear him walk around
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock
At first, it was easy
But now why's it have to be so hard?
Heaven is a fire escape
You try to cling to in the dark
At first it was simple
But now it got too complicated
But the world just got a lovely time
Or blame it all on my mistake
Maybe I'll find heaven
One day, after dark
Maybe you'll find heaven is a place to part?
[?]
We are doing everything we can
We still can't seem to switch it on
[?]
I am floating up beneath the clouds
[?]
