Song of the Day: What If

boomp3.com

Making up for lost days. Here's another favorite Coldplay tune, from their XY release.

It's called "What if." To me, this song contains some of the scariest lyrics in the world.

What if there was no light.
Nothing wrong, nothing right.
What if there was no time?
And no reason or rhyme?
What if you should decide
That you don't want me there by your side.
That you don't want me there in your life.


What if I got it wrong?
And no poem or song..
Could put right what I got wrong,
Or make you feel I belong
What if you should decide
That you don't want me there by your side
That you don't want me there in your life.


Emphasis mine. Maybe it's past experience that makes this such a fear. Maybe it's current conditions. The former maybe puts the fear in mind, the later makes it go from the equivalent to someone saying "boo" to the equivalent of imagining being a character in the Blair Witch Project.
