When I'm counting up my demons
Saw there was one for every day
With the good ones on my shoulder
I drove the other ones away

If you ever feel neglected
If you think 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
Everybody's out to get you
Don't you let it drag you down

Cause 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

If you ever feel neglected
If you think 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

Come on yeah oh oh yeah come on yeah
Everything's not lost

Oh 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

This song got me through September 2020, the worst month of my life. I lost so many people unexpectedly all in the same week and just felt so broken. I was failing school and two of my childhood pets died as well.

I promise it gets better. I know everyone says that, but you have to trust and believe it yourself. I didn’t believe it for the longest time. Sometimes it feels like you’ve been waiting for years for life to look up. Even if you have been waiting for years, just look back at how strong you’ve been and realize that you can do it, and it is worth every bit you’ve put into it. I can’t offer you perfect personal advice, it’s not that easy. Everyone has to figure their purpose out on their own. Nobody is going to do it for you. Especially when they’re on their own path as well. I can try to help, but I only know so much. And I still regret things, and I still have plenty of battles to come. And I know that life is going to get me down again eventually. It’s inevitable for all of us. After all, we’re only human. Figuring out your purpose is the hardest thing you’ll ever do, finding the meaning of your life and all. But you aren’t alone. You have all of these people pushing you along the way and passing on their wisdom so that one day you can do the same.

You need to give yourself more credit. Just look around you.

You’re not alone.

Reach out to someone. There are so many people just waiting for you to talk to them so they can help, because they know how it feels to be in the exact situation.

Stop thinking you have to fix everything by yourself.

And remember, there are plenty who have it worse than you right now.

There is hope.
Everything’s Not Lost. <3

If anyone needs someone to talk to I am here as a friend. :)

God bless, Jesus loves you and so do I.

But If I was wrong, then I'm sorry
I don't let it stand in our way
'Cause my head just aches when I think of
The things that I shouldn't have done
But life is for living we all know
And I don't wanna live it alone
Sing ah ah ah
Sing ah ah ah
And just sing ah ah ah

I know people have said this before, but Coldplay truly helped me fight my depression. I felt so lost. I had lost everything. My friends. I was all alone. One night I had enough. I was angry and sad, and I decided to just play some music for no reason, even though I didn't want to. Then this song was the first to come on. It started to catch me, with hope. Then when it broke into its guitar solo, the best feeling swept over me.Tears of joy swept through me. I had hope. As all those happy memories came flooding back. The songs meaning sang louder than words can describe it for me

@christophercarter1727

can't wait for the Superbowl, having coldplay playing at half time will give the best band in the world an even bigger audience, if that's at all possible, this band save my life and I'm so happy for them.

@jrodproductionstudios9587

+christopher carter I know I'm excited too, even though my team isn't in it. This band helps a lot of people, they really need more credit

@christophercarter1727

+Jared LaVoie indeed. I was so depressed when my girlfriend broke up with me and everything not lost is why I'm now over her

@lilianajimenezjofre7676

+Jared LaVoie I feel the same way too... but with "Fix You"... It´s like an hymn for me since I broke up with my ex husband... it was terrible, I felt lost... but here I am :)

@jrodproductionstudios9587

Honestly I am a total hardcore/punk/metalhead but Parachutes has been my guilty go to for well over a decade, regardless of my opinion on their later work this album is fucking phenomenal and this finale is perfection.

@raysugarbelly258

As a fellow guy who has Coldplay albums (and Keane too, to be fair) in his playlist, next to the heavy punk and metal(core) music, and there is no guilt in listening to/enjoying it!

@kabobollomusic

Damn same bro

@patriot1151

I totally agree, I am a Metalhead as well and love Coldplay first 4 albums, not really a fan of their new sound.
