Fix You by Coldplay

When you try your best but you don't succeed
When you get what you want but not what you need
When you feel so tired but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse.

And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

And high up above earth or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try you'll never know
Just what you're worth

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Tears stream, down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down your face and I...


Tears stream, down your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down your face and I...


Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you.

Why I love this song:

This song probably helped me through one of the toughest times in my life. I had just finished high school and was now trying to take steps to go on a mission. I had a lot of hardships and trials that i had to face and just thought that it was never going to end. I had to keep pushing forward and try to make the best of what i had. Whenever I felt down or sad, i would listen to this song. The Lyrics just fit so well with what i was trying to get through. I imagined the Savior as the one singing this song time. Trying as hard as i could to reach my goals, may get some things but not exactly what i needed at the time, feel like everything is going backwards. I knew that if i turned to him, walked toward his light, he would fix all that was ailing me. It was that simple. And i did that. Things didnt happen instantly for me but i did finally get to go out and serve my mission. I was so glad when i finally got to do that. Still to this day i love this song, and is probably my all time favorite from Coldplay. I know that as long as i put my faith and trust in my savior then everything will work out.....

I thought this would be a great introduction to the track list of music that has influenced me in my life. This is one of the biggest ones that has impacted me, in a spiritual and emotional way. Hopefully it can also bring answers to those that are seeking help when they feel alone like i did.
