Coldplay The Sci
Everything is open to interpretation-it's personal. For me it has two meanings. The first is the lyrics about love and the breakup of a relationship with a girlfriend.

Coldplay Come up to meet you Tell you I'm sorry You don't know how lovely you are I had to find you Tell you I need you Tell you I set you apart Tell me your secrets And ask me your questions Oh let's go back to the start Running in circles, coming up tails Heads on a science apart Nobody said it was easy It's such a shame for us to part Nobody.
The second meaning for me is very difficult to listen to at times. It has to do with the relationship I had with my mother. The last night when the doctor told my father and I that she would die in an hour maybe five hours (they were keeping her alive with drugs-she had a d.N.R.- her sickly body was so frail that cpr would not be possible anyway). I would walk out to the car and listen to a rush of blood to the head. Then when I felt strong enough I would go back to her room. I was in my late twenties when I had a severe problem with substance abuse. This took it's toll on my mother.
Mentally, physically, financially and monetarily.' Running in cirles.' 'coming back as we were.' My repeated attempts to drink like a normal person(not to mention drugs) 'nobody said it was easy.' Trying to get back the healthy adult relationship we had. And most of all watching her take her last breath and dealing with her death. 'i'm going back to the start.'
Wishing things could go back to the way they were before the damage I caused-that she chose to endure due to unconditional love. 'tell you I'm sorry.' I never got the chance.
' come back to haunt me.' Regret, remorse about what I could not change before she died.

'tell me you love me.' When I didn't feel I deserved it she randomly said: 'I love you.'
Shocking to me but wonderful at the same time-knowing she had forgiven me. Thats a gift that keeps me going during hard times. 'you don't know how lovely you are.' She was a rare slice. I have not met many people as special as she was. She was an amazing human being. One who will always be greatly missed.
I could go on but I think you get the general idea. I personally believe that the song is about a man who has just made a major mistake and therefore caused the breaking up of he and the love of his life. He is still trying to figure out what went wrong, but is over-analyzing the situation and not necessarily relying on his gut instinct. He wants everything to go back to what it once was so that he can undo the mistakes he made and revive the relationship.
The video proves my point. Chris Martin goes backwards.back in time.to save his girlfriend/fiancee/wife/etc. From dying in a car crash. Everyone has different opinions, and I'm sure that mine is just as worthless to all of you as the next one.
Do we really have to define the song? He finally understands what has gone wrong. He has deeply examined what the relationship and the girl meen to him. He was running in circles about what he thought was important but was wrong. In the end what is really important is pure honesty. Its sounds chessy, but if you listen close to the song, its full of hurt and he clues into to two simple facts: Love is worth any sacrifice and real love is a puzzle no one can solve completly. He feels like a sicentist trying to figure and sort things out one block at a time.but no one can take it apart because it just dosent work that way.'
Take me back to the start' Why? Because Love is not something you can totally understand. They Said It can be related to any relationship. It can be a past girlfriend. Or even the death of someone you love. Anything where you want to go back to before it all happened. Back to before the breakup.
The car accident (like the video) or the illness. Anything really. We take too many things for granted. We think things will stay the same. But life is always changing, and one day you wake up to find what you had is gone - and you didn't really take advantage of the beautiful thing it was while it was there. He throws in some other stuff. Because any good song also has some slight personal background, but all of the things about pulling the puzzles apart - and about chasing our tails reiterates the idea that we were distracted by things that truly weren't the real important things.
We should have been focusing on that relationship - no matter who that person was. A mom, a girlfriend, we shouldn't have assumed things would always be the same. He's now on the other side of it - and looking back. And there's just no going back to where he once was. It's one of the saddest songs. But it generally reiterates the idea that you don't know what you got.
Til it's gone. 'Come up to meet you Tell you I'm sorry You don't know how lovely you are I had to find you. Tell you I need you Tell you I set you apart' The song talks about a couple that split apart. The man makes the decision to find the woman to meet her and apologize and tell her that he needs her, because she isn't like anybody else.
Or perhaps she is just different than any other relationship he's been before. 'Tell me your secrets And ask me your questions Oh let's go back to the start. ' He asks that she opens up to him with her secrets, and for her to ask him questions. Perhaps the reason why they broke up was because he wasn't open enough about his past and he suggests to start again by sharing their past.
'Running in circles; coming in tails Heads on a silence apart' He's been trying to figure out where the relationship fell short. He thought or even bet on 'tails' as in a coin toss, that the relationship was something, but in reality the relationship was 'heads' resulting on a silence and apart from each other. 'Nobody said it was easy It's such a shame for us to part Nobody said it was easy No one ever said it would be this hard Oh take me back to the start' He says that nobody ever told him that a relationship could ever be as hard as it turned out and wishes to start over again. Perhaps this time knowing where his mistake was he'll do things differently and make things easier. He regrets that because they couldn't make things work a good relationship was lost.
'I was just guessing at numbers and figures Pulling your puzzles apart Questions of science; science and progress Do not speak as loud as my heart' During the relationship he never really knew what he was doing. He just 'guessed' at figuring out the girl's enigmas, dissecting her or analyzing her so he could understand her. The questions of science are relatively easier to answer than figuring out his feelings for her, while at the same time, his heart can't say it louder and clearer enough than the facts that science and progress provide. Tell me you love me Come back and haunt me Oh and I rush to the start Running in circles, chasing our tails Coming back as we are He wants her to tell him she loves him and seek him. He wants her to be the one who's after him and he won't hesitate this time. Hell rush to start over again. Running in circles, meaning that they will still have no clue of how to work a relationship, chasing their tails, still trying out their luck (as in a coin toss, heads or tails), going back to how they were before, the way they are, assuming he doesn't want her to change anything about her.
From me another way of interpreting this song: I believe, the topic isn't any relationship between a man, a scientist and a woman. The song is about the divorce of religion and science. Since Descartes the human mind is divided by the human body. The scientist in this song apologizes to god for don't believing in him: 'Come up to meet you, Tell you I'm sorry, You don't know how lovely you are.' He wants to meet with god or the values god is described. 'I had to find you, Tell you I need you, Tell you I set you apart.' Here the scientist realises that he needs god to explain the world as a functional concept.
'Tell me your secrets, Ask me your questions, Oh, let's go back to the start.' He wants to start again and to see the world not in just the way science thinks, but to connect both ways of thinking.
Without god science is 'Runnin' in circles, Comin' up tails,.' and it's a shame for all the years they were apart: 'Nobody said it was easy, It's such a shame for us to part.

Nobody said it was easy, No one ever said it would be this hard. Oh, take me back to the start.' The typical 'Oh' can also be seen as a direct pray to god like an 'Oh Lord'. 'I was just guessing, At numbers and figures, Pulling the puzzles apart.'

Without god it's just guessing what science does and that nothing speaks louder than god in his heart: 'Questions of science, Science and progress, could not speak as loud as my heart.' 'Tell me you love me, Come back and haunt me, Oh, and I rush to the start.'
He prays that god will forgive him and that he is going to come back, so that science and religion can be reunited: 'Runnin' in circles, Chasin' tails, Comin' back as we are.' I think only in this way of interpretation, the title makes sense. I'm sorry for my english, I am from Germany(not that I would be proud of it:D). I think it's definitely what others have said, especially about a guy who has made a huge mistake in breaking up with his partner. The added twist for me is the 'scientist' part, which speaks to me more personally. I think the protagonist is literally a scientist, someone who maybe isn't used to the feelings of love, those which can't be put into 'numbers and figures.' So he's spent the whole relationship trying to examine it scientifically.
Either he/his partner ended the relationship because of this. He's only now coming to terms with what he felt/he feels, finally accepting that love isn't something that can be studied or quantified. This song is about a man who has just broken up with his girlfriend. He feels the pain and regret, and wants to apologize, hence the line'come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry'. The man just wants to go back to the beginning, and start over with the girl. He doesn't care about the real world, all he wants is to be with her, hence the line'questions of science, science and progress, don't speak as loud as my heart'. The girl does not agree, and he feels even deeper regret and sadness-'It's such a shame for us to part, nobody said it would be easy, no one ever said it would be this hard'.
This is a beautiful song.
