Don't Panic

I really enjoy listening to Coldplay, and then I came across this song called Don't Panic. A really short, simple but earnest song. This is my interpretation of the song, if you disagree let me know. I think this song talks about global warming, and the end of the world. If you watch the video you'll see factories, and cars releasing pollution. You'll also see natural disasters, and the earth exploding. (The first time you watch the video it kinda seems weird.)

                 Lyrics to the song                          My Interpretation

Bones, sinking like stones, -------------->   People are sinking (falling)
All that we fought for, -------------------->   All the wars we fought
And homes, places we've grown, ------->   All the homes, and buildings we've built
All of us are done for. -------------------->   All of us are gong to die.

And we live in a beautiful world, (While watching the video I see natural disasters, and    Yeah we do, yeah we do,                       causes of global warming)
We live in a beautiful world, ( I think he's saying that we live in a beautiful world, but                                                               will it stay like that?)

Bones, sinking like stones, -------------->   People are sinking (falling)
All that we fought for, -------------------->   All the wars we fought
And homes, places we've grown, ------->   All the homes, and buildings we've built
All of us are done for. -------------------->   All of us are gong to die.

And we live in a beautiful world, (While watching the video I see natural disasters, and    Yeah we do, yeah we do,                        causes of global warming)
We live in a beautiful world, ( I think he's saying that we live in a beautiful world, but                                                            will it stay like that?)

And we live in a beautiful world, (While watching the video I see natural disasters, and    Yeah we do, yeah we do,                              causes of global warming) 
We live in a beautiful world, ( I think he's saying that we live in a beautiful world, but                                                              will it stay like that?)

Oh, all that I know, ------------------------> Everything we know
There's nothing here to run from, --------> This is something we can't get away from
Cause, yeah, everybody here's got somebody to lean on.---> You're not alone.
