Violet HillLyrics
Was a long and dark December
From the rooftops I remember
There was snow
White snow
Clearly I remember
From the windows they were watching
While we froze down below
When the future's architectured
By a carnival of idiots on show
You'd better lie low
If you love me
Won't you let me know?
Was a long and dark December
When the banks became cathedrals
And the fox
Became God
Priests clutched onto Bibles
Hollowed out to fit their rifles
And a cross was held aloft
Bury me in armor
When I'm dead and hit the ground
My nerves are poles that unfroze
And if you love me
Won't you let me know?
I don't want to be a soldier
Who the captain of some sinking ship
Would stow
Far below
So if you love me
Why'd you let me go?
I took my love down to violet hill
There we sat in snow
All that time she was silent still
Said if you love me
Won't you let me know?
If you love me
Won't you let me know?

Violet Hill?
This is where Coldplay meets politics in their songs. It sounds like a narration in very short terms of how things ended up like this worldwide. How banks, media and religion led people to war, poverty, hunger and ruled their minds with misconceptions.
