I thought of Coldplay's A Rush of Blood... which is very similar lyrically:
"I'm going to buy a gun and start a war
If you can tell me something worth fighting for "
It's more defeatist than angry though.

Me too. I love that song, but the first time I listened to it, I immediatly thought of Last Train.

I can't remember which I heard first, but I think it was Coldplay. I never really thought about copying, but from the first listen I thought they were very similar in the threatening violence sense.
I prefer Last Train though!

I do like AROBTTH, it's a nice contrast to the epicness of recent Coldplay (particularly like the chorus), but Last Train is one of my favourite Travis songs, so it has to win.

Also, I think that LT has more emotion in than any Coldplay song. Ever. :)
