Lyrics:


Scared of losing all the time
He wrote it in a letter
He was a friend of mine

He heard you could see your future
Inside a glass of water
The ripples and the lines
And he asked
Would I see heaven in mine?

That is just the way it was
Nothing could be better
And nothing ever was

Oh they say you can see your future
Inside a glass of water
The riddles and the rhymes
Will I see heaven in mine?
Oh Oh Oh Oh I

Son, don't ask
Neither half full nor empty is the glass
Cling to the mast
Spend your whole life living in the past
Going nowhere fast

So he wrote it on a wall
The hollowest of halos
Is no halo at all
Televisions selling plastic figurines of leaders
Saying nothing at all
And you chime
Stars in heaven align
Ohhhhhhhh I

Son, don't ask
Neither half full or empty is the glass
Cling to the mast
Spend your whole life living in the past
Going nowhere fast

What are we drinking when were done?
Glasses of water

@pvtxpotrenko They're two paintings by Eugene Delacroix. The one for Viva La vida is called Liberty Leading the People and the one for Prospekt's March is the Battle of Poitiers.

Anyone ever wondered about that Painting on the backround of viva la vida and Prospekts march ? it looks epic and beautiful =)

hyper1link he is refering to a certain somebody.. he is talking to his son telling him how he is living in the past.. he isnt telling us to live in the pst

[Hyper1ink]

"Spend your whole life living in the past"? Why should we live in the past? Why not live now? Can somebody explain that?
