Hurts Like Heaven Lyrics

Since Chris Martin has said in interviews that this album is about a boy and girl finding love in a dystopia, seems like this opening song could be an introduction of one protagonist (let’s assume it’s Mylo, who’s the boy) – going out with a group for the first time to do something illegal. “Yes, I feel a little bit nervous / yes, I feel nervous and I cannot relax / how come they’re out to get us?” Given the info Chris Martin has released about the album, I’m going to say he’s tagging the city with anti-authority graffiti as part of the Lost Boys gang.

I've tried to sort out this whole album ... if you're interested, check out my analysis at http://www.smrvl.com/blog/?p=976 -- I'd love to know if you agree with my guesses!

Have you seem the videoclip of this song?? They ARE doing something illegal! Awesome, dude!
