"I awake to find no piece of mind
I said how do you live as a fugitive?
Down here? Where I cannot see so clear
I said what do I know? Show me the right way to go

And your feeling so bad cause you know
That the spies hide out in every corner
But you can't touch them no
Cause they're all spies
They're all spies

I awake to see that no one is free
Well, we're all fugitives, look at the way we live
Down here I cannot sleep from fear, no
I said which way do I turn?
Oh I forget everything I learn

And the spies came out of the water
And your feeling so bad cause you know
That the spies hide out in every corner
But you can't touch them no
Cause they're all spies
They're all spies

And if we don't hide here,
They're gonna find us
And if we don't hide now
They're gonna catch us where we sleep
And if we don't hide here
There gonna find us

And the spies came out of the water
And you feeling so good cause you know
That those spies hide out in every corner
But they can't touch you no
Cause they're just spies

They're just spies
They're just spies
They're just spies..."
-Coldplay, Spies, Parachutes

The first time I listened to Parachutes, I sobbed through the entire thing. It's hauntingly beautiful. I love it. And it still makes me cry.
