Everything's Not Lost...!

................................................................

When I counted up my demons
Saw there was one for every day
With the good ones on my shoulders
I drove the other ones away

................................................................

I fell silent.
Immediately my expression turned blank at the thought.

That's right...what was I expecting?

................................................................

So if you ever feel neglected
And if you think that all is lost
I'll be counting up my demons, yeah
Hoping everything's not lost

................................................................

I tried to get their attention,
Not that I'm trying to exaggerate something,
But I just felt...
...ignored...

................................................................

When you thought that it was over

You could feel it all around
And everybody's out to get you
Don't you let it drag you down

................................................................

But that wasn't the case at school,
It somehow seemed different.
I changed...?
Did I change?
Or did everything change...
...except me?

................................................................

'Cos if you ever feel neglected
And if you think that all is lost
I'll be counting up my demons, yeah
Hoping everything's not lost

................................................................

I still don't get it,
No matter how much I lament,
Demons? What does that mean?
My demons?
What...my wrongdoings?
I don't...get it...

................................................................

If you ever feel neglected

If you think that all is lost
I'll be counting up my demons, yeah
Hoping everything's not lost

................................................................

But...
It doesn't matter if I don't get it now,
I want to discover the answers myself...
This raging feeling inside...
What's happening?
In a way, I feel...
...lonely...
By myself, I sing...
While trying to figure things out,
I sing to myself...

................................................................

Singing out

Oh, oh, oh, yeah
Oh, oh, yeah
Oh, oh, yeah
Everything's not lost

So come on, yeah
Oh, oh, yeah
Come on, yeah
And everything's not lost

Oh, oh, yeah
Oh, oh, yeah
Oh, oh, yeah
And everything's not lost

................................................................

I continue to sing...
I cannot stop...
The tempo rises,
The volume increases,
I know by heart,
Everything's not lost.

................................................................

Come on, yeah
Oh, oh, yeah
Come on, yeah

Come on, yeah
Oh, oh, yeah
Come on, yeah
And everything's not lost

Sing out, yeah
Oh, oh, yeah
Come on, yeah
And everything's not lost

Come on, yeah
Oh, oh yeah
Sing out, yeah
And everything's not lost

................................................................

I continue to sing until my voice goes hoarse...
...but I do not care...
I continue singing,
Again and again...
I sing and sing and sing...
Everything's not lost.



Song: "Everything's Not Lost" by Coldplay
