Paradise

            Paradise by Coldplay is a song that inspires me. The first time that I heard this song, it inspired me immediately. It was my style of song, and it reminds me when I first came to America. I like the background music and the rhythm of this song. The background music tells me the paradise, and rhythm is quiet and somehow peaceful. The biggest reason this song inspires me is the lyrics.

            “When she was just a girl, she expected the world, but it flew away from her reach, so she ran away in her sleep.” A young girl was expected to do what she want, but it wasn’t as she expected. It just came to my mine. “Dreamed of paradise, every time she closed her eyes.” How much she expected. My favorite part of lyric is “Life goes on, it gets so heavy, the wheel breaks the butterfly. Every tear, a waterfall,” because it means a lot to me. I’ve been through similar situation, I know how she feels and I know is in her mind.

            In this song, there are not a lot of words compare to other songs, but it still tells us a story. It tells the story by tone, rhythm, and music. This is why this song inspires me.
