Why is that when a song makes Biblical references it instantly has to be about something from the "Bible." newsflash: The "Bible" is the most alluded work of all time, but you don't take an allusion at face value. Coldplay has said the song is about revolution. You can do personal interpretations, but the whole "Bible" thing to me is kind of ridiculous-in a sense that you have a to take the lyrics at face value. Let me make one thing clear, I am not saying the "Bible" or what the "Bible" claims is or is not true. I am simply saying you shouldn't take lyrics at face value like that. Look for deeper meanings.
