Now My Feet Won't Touch The Ground

Now My Feet Won't Touch The Ground is a song written during sessions for Viva La Vida Or Death And All His Friends, but didn't make the final cut of the album.

It was released later as the closing track on the Prospekt's March EP. It links to the opening track Life In Technicolor II through its lyrics, just as Life in Technicolor I links to The Escapist through its music. The title is the key part of Life In Technicolor's chorus.

It is also mentioned in the lyrics to Strawberry Swing, another song written during the same session. However, the two songs appear to be unrelated.

The title also bears a resemblance to early Coldplay B-side No More Keeping My Feet On The Ground.

Lyrics

Let me go boys, let me go
Push my boat from the highest cliff to the sea below
Rocks are waiting boys, if rocks await
Swoop down from the sky and catch me like a bird of prey

Now my feet won't touch the ground 
Now my head won't stop
You wait a lifetime to be found
Now my feet won't touch the ground

Singing, now my feet won't touch the ground
Now my head won't stop
You wait a lifetime to be found
Now my feet won't touch the ground
Now my feet won't touch the ground...
