A Carnaval

Posted on Apr 24th, 2009 by Domus Ulixes : Some Kid Domus Ulixes
Violet Hill (Dancing Politicians)


Was a long and dark December
From the rooftops i remember
There was snow
White snow

Clearly i remember
From the windows they were watching
While we froze down below

When the future's architectured
By a carnival of idiots on show
You'd better lie low

If you love me
Won't you let me know?

Was a long and dark December
When the banks became cathedrals
And the fox
Became God

Priests clutched onto bibles
Hollowed out to fit their rifles
And the cross was held aloft

Bury me in armor
When i'm dead and hit the ground
My nerves are poles that unfroze

If you love me
Won't you let me know?

I don't want to be a soldier
Who the captain of some sinking ship
Would stow, far below

So if you love me
Why'd you let me go?

I took my love down to violet hill
There we sat in snow
All that time she was silent still

So if you love me
Won't you let me know?

If you love me,
Won't you let me know?

Hi Frederik,
I just read your very interesting post in the Think Tank group which guided me to your profile.
I love this song (and I'm sooo not big on Coldplay).
Have a nice day… hope you'll get some replies to your suggestion… will be interesting to see what the Gaia team has to say to that.
Cheers.
