Everything's Not Lost Lyrics

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

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

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

'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

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

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

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

you are and i am stronger than the demons of insecurity, fear, doubt, anger, frustration, jealousy. and if you emphasize the demons of optimism, strength, confidence, and love you will not be let down. its all a matter of doing it....

too right!

i agree with briang, this song is the ultimate pick-me-up. i cannot believe that the first time i heard it i hated it. its truly beautiful. and people say all coldplay is is depressing!

It's much like people say Pink Floyd is pessimistic. Much of their music is. But they always close off their stories with the "happy ending", the optimism that says "things may suck, but that doesn't mean they always will, so don't let our music get you down". And in that way, I think they, like Coldplay, have a really positive view on what life could be, they just feel that the possibilities are being ignored by the current situation and that's what's dragging us down.

this could be my favorite coldplay song. i love it so much, it's gorgeous. the way it progresses - i just don't want it to end.

this song along many others from coldplay has a way of making you zone out of your problems and travel on a euphoric adventure of musical greatness. the amazing lyrics coupled with chris's soothing voice is an experience that can't receive it's proper justice from my words. it would take coldplay themselves to write a song describing the feeling you get when listening to their music.. someone also said earlier that there is no need for drugs or alcohol, just pop in some coldplay... i concur

I just love the way how Coldplay songs, and especially this song, can lift you up. That the song slowly moves from an depressive to a more optimistic sound. It first connects to your sad feelings(if you feel depressed) like it understands you.

A great!! song!

Still prolly my all time favorite song by them. It cures me out of most depressive moods :)

I can't believe that no one else has commented this song. I think that this song is very well written and I like it a lot. I think that it has a nice little Emo sound to it and I enjoy listening to it a lot. I think that Coldplay is a pretty good band. They have some good usic with a nice Emo toon to it. At least that's wut I think. Well I just thought this song was pretty good and it suprised me when I saw that no one really had commented this song. O well I guess. I'm really into Emo and Old Skool Punk and I think that the instrumental and lyrics to this song are Emo in a way so that's like one of the main reasons I like it.:) ~aMbEr*
