Under the Tracks
Coldplay Lyrics

There is a place
There exists a location

it has a face
It has a distinct identity or appearance

and he was walking out the door.
A person, whose identity is not revealed, was leaving

His mother said
This person's mother spoke

she was ashamed
His mother felt embarrassed or guilty

cause he had no place to go.
Because this person had nowhere to stay

He was afraid
This person felt scared

And I was fine,
The artist or narrator was okay or unaffected

And he wanted, peace of mind.
This person craved or desired mental calmness

Three times turned
Something turned or changed direction thrice

And your gone,
And this person has left or departed

You are free,
This person has achieved freedom or escape

You are free,
This person has achieved freedom or escape

And its a long way home.
The journey to get back to where this person came from is arduous

What have we done
The singer is contemplating some action or decisions taken

Is it wrong
The artist questions if what was done was morally right

Is it wrong
The artist questions if what was done was morally right

Is it me, cant you see
The singer wonders if they were at fault or accountable

its a long way home.
The journey back to where this person came from is long

There is a snake,
A snake is present

and he will awake,
The snake will stir or rouse from slumber

and he'll get you off the floor.
The snake will lift someone from a supine position

You'll start to shake,
Someone will tremble or shake

your friends will sweat,
The person's associates or companions will perspire or be anxious

you are high, you will forget.
The shaking person had consumed drugs or alcohol and will experience memory loss

She is afraid
A woman is experiencing fear

cause you are dying,
The shaking person is close to death

But you have got your peace of mind.
Despite the imminent death, this person has obtained mental tranquility

And you go,
This person departs once again

and you go
This person departs once again

You are free,
This person gains freedom or liberation

You are free,
This person gains freedom or liberation

And its a long way home
The odyssey to return is long and challenging

And i won't make your dreams come true,
The artist won't fulfill someone's aspirations

Its all you,
That person has to do it on their own

you got to change your lonely ways,
The person has to alter their bleak habits

To make it through
To successfully overcome obstacles or challenges

You found a place
Someone has discovered a location

In outer space,
That location is in the cosmos

were you don't hurt anymore
In that spot, someone won't experience pain or suffering

Your lovely hand
Somebody's beautiful or attractive hand

has slipped away,
That hand has escaped or vanished

And there is nothing left to say
Nothing more is left to be vocalized

And we were born
The artist and another person were born

of yellow sand
These persons were born from sand of that color

There is no plan
There isn't a blueprint or set course of action

there is no end.
There isn't a termination or conclusion

All night long
The whole night

I was wrong
The singer erred

I was wrong
The singer has committed a mistake

It was me, cant you see
The singer is owning up to causing a problem

its a long way home
The voyage back to the starting point is extensive

It took a million lives to see her smile
Many people died until this woman felt joyous

Don't touch, it's too much To break it and she´ll send you home
It's better not to tamper with her happiness, otherwise she will act forcefully

Afraid of love
The singer is scared of amorous feelings

Afraid you might get hurt.
The fear is that the artist or someone else would become wounded emotionally

So good luck,
That person needs a lot of fortune

Don't get stuck,
It is crucial not to become ensnared or trapped

Turn around before you can go back.
Before returning, it's necessary to modify something or assume a different view.
