"Clocks" est une chanson du groupe de rock alternatif britannique Coldplay. Il a été écrit et composé, en collaboration entre tous les membres du groupe, pour leur deuxième album, A Rush of Blood to the Head. Construite autour d'un riff de piano, la chanson présente des paroles cryptiques sur des thèmes de contraste et d'urgence. Plusieurs remixes de la piste existent et son riff a été largement échantillonné.

The lights go out and I can't be saved
Tides that I tried to swim against
Have brought me down upon my knees
Oh I beg, I beg and plead, singing
Come out of the things unsaid
Shoot an apple off my head and a
Trouble that can't be named
A tiger's waiting to be tamed, singing
You are, you are
Confusion that never stops
The closing walls and the ticking clocks gonna
Come back and take you home
I could not stop, that you now know, singing
Come out upon my seas
Cursed missed opportunities am I
A part of the cure
Or am I part of the disease, singing
You are, you are
You are, you are
You are, you are
And nothing else compares
And nothing else compares
And nothing else compares
You are, you are
Home, home, where I wanted to go
Home, home, where I wanted to go
Home, home, where I wanted to go (You are)
Home, home, where I wanted to go (You are)
