Don't get me wrong, the song is gorgeous and calm, but I see a completely morbid side to it... which is weird, because I don't see Coldplay as morbid in the slightest, and though I'm random, I don't tend to think this way... weird...
I also have heard two different intros - "So you lost your trust, and you never shared her, no you never shared her" or instead of "shared her" it's "should have"
So you lost your trust, and you never shared her, no you never shared her...
I think it's "should have" in my opinion, but if it really is "shared her", it could mean there's a guy who was betrayed by a girl, he lost his trust and is threatening to kill her. (Weird, right?)
But don't break your back if you ever see this, don't answer that - the guy shouldn't lose his cool, but by now the police have surrounded the location... don't answer the phone.
The police are in bullet proof vests... The windows are all closed. The guy probably knows his fate, and tells the girl he loves that he'll "see you soon"...
Telescope lens can very well mean a sniper rifle, all this guy wanted was for things to be normal, but he'll "see you soon".
So they came for her - bust down the door, but don't freak out - don't answer their questions...
In the song, at about 2:00, you hear the haunting sound of a guitar... could that be a poetic version of an ambulance siren? Police?
By now the deed has probably been done... She lost her trust for good, he was killed and yes it's all very morbid...
I didn't mean to ruin it for anyone, like I said, the song is beautiful and calm... I just don't know why this interpretation hit me the way it did. It was strange for me too... I love Coldplay lol I don't think this is what they meant at all... I guess I'm not just random, but morbidly random... Sorry.
