Red-Yellow Autumn Funeral (live) [Cold Plays EP '99]
Red - Yellow Autumn Funeral The naked forest gallery... In loneliness and misery I'm here to feel the final breath Of autumn symphony of death The quiet wind voice sadly calling Dead leaves like dead lives slowly falling Two-colored dress on branches weak We'll all be dead...and death's so quick The ceremony is about to start... Red color means the spell of blood And yellow - vanity of gold Both soon will cover ground cold It's not the only way - to live To love, to shelter, to forgive To find the signs of any sense In life's disgusting violence I hear the call of autumn tune I see the blind eyes of the moon They look at me, and silent cries Play sorrow in the gloomy skies Away from life..away from lust From poisoned chambers of the past I walk away from
The sky is burning, blistering My magic amber mystery The nature's weird parody On comedy and tragedy My senseless hopes and dreams and fears All turning into rainy tears I want them very much to stay But they, alas, so far away Nothing to keep...So, should I sing My strange romance of suffering? But something pure left in these Enchanted mesmerizing trees So hide me in your golden woods Embrace me with your rainy floods And throw me in your leaves of flame In disappointment and shame... I celebrate my secret fall I'll stay within this autumn call Just lonely shadow will remain As a symbol of my endless pain This world is what I will forget But something I remember yet The beauty's final carnival Red - yellow autumn funeral...
