| Hoyt Axton – Never Been to Spain Lyrics

The author is comparing oklahoma to heaven. The author is saying that oklahoma is second only to heaven. That there are a lot of spectacular places in the world (Spain, England, Vegas)...but none compare to his home of oklahoma besides heaven. That he has been gone for so long that he has forgotten all but that oklahoma is most certainly second only to heaven. The chorus indicates that he has given up on ever returning to his home but will always remember nonetheless. |

Of course the author is comparing oklahoma to heaven. The author is saying that oklahoma is second only to heaven. That there are a lot of spectacular places in the world (Spain, England, Vegas)...but none compare to his home of oklahoma besides heaven. That he has been gone for so long that he has forgotten all but that oklahoma is most certainly second only to heaven. The closing of the chorus indicates that he has given up on ever returning to his home but will always remember nonetheless. |

| Coldplay – Beautiful World Lyrics
| 17 years ago
|
|
This song seeks to defy a microcosm of the purpose for which the vast majority of our capitalistic world lives their lives to fulfill and serve. We define our own strife by placing emphasis on material things, things that we create...all the while the most beautiful of things, created not by man or at a "material" cost, are overlooked. We perpetuate these purposes...impose them upon our children in the form of the almighty dollar, despite our and materials' inevitable passing...the "sinking of bones." Every home inherited, no matter how grand or golden, every person to pass, no matter how powerful, influential, or evil, every great material thing to come and go will eventually leave this world with no more or less beauty than that which has and will always remain. Defy this purpose. Slow down and open your eyes. Walk through this beautiful world and bring those around with you. The beauty contained within a single flower, rock beneath a shimmering puddle of rain, or breeze on your face will be here long after a Picasso or Shelby GT. |
