Coldplay - Trouble Song Meanings

This is such a beautiful song. In my opinion, one of their best. It makes me think of a person reflecting back on a past relationship:
"I lost my head, the thought of all the stupid things I said"

is a lovely line, gives you the impression of a person in anger and heartache but then later regreting things that were said.

"spider web and I'm caught in the middle" shows that this particular person is maybe in some sort of sticky situation and he/she feels completely torn and in two minds, with not a clue on what to do. It's a song of guilt and passion,
"I never meant to cause you trouble"
again, says everything, I love you too much to have caused you so much trouble.

I have to agree. Its a very nostalgic song. It's the first song I heard when I entered mjsc kch which is 1 of the worst boarding schools on earth. Can't believe I'm through with it. Trouble, that is what I experienced back then and I have grown now

The narrator looks back in hindsight at all the turmoil he caused from one lie.

I think it's about a person who wants to say "excuse me" to somebody. I think it's a very close person, probably even a family member. He winds in his arguments, shown with the picture of the spider web he can't escape. He is very sorry about what he did and is helpless with his feelings.

Well its all metaphorically but the spiders got him in trouble and in the end they get him out.
