"The Scientist," by Coldplay

I recently learned to play a song on the piano, It's called The Scientist. I really enjoy playing this song because, it's very meaningful, and sad. The Lyrics of the song basically explain how the songwriter, screwed up. The songwriter explains how sorry he feels, and he tries to glue every thing back together.

     He wants to tell it to his 'lover' with science and reasoning, but he can't because love is on a different level. Love doesn't work that way. Love isn't science, it's a feeling. He is also saying he wants a fresh start. He would really like to start over. At the end of the chorus, he says "oh take me back to the start." The songwriter is also saying to his lover, that you don't know how lovely you are. This shows how he is trying to get his loved one back. Love is very hard, but he's trying to fix things, and make everything all better.

The song is very relevant to life. Life is very complicated, even more complicated, love. Love is a very difficult thing. And instead of breaking up, burning pictures of your "loved" ones, make things better. If you know you screwed up, fix it. Life would go way smoother. Even write a song if you have to!!
