Cold
β€’ Evans Blue Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hello, I'm your martyr, will you be my gangster
Can you feel my trigger hand, moving further down your back
When you hide, hide inside that body
But just remember that when I touch you
The more you shake, the more you give away

Cold, but I'm still here, blind, β€˜cause I'm so blind, say never
We're far from comfortable this time
Cold, now we're so cold, mine, and you're not mine, say never
We're far from obvious this time

Wait, another minute here, time will kill us after all
Now can you feel its second hand wrapped around your neck
So fall into my eyes and fall into my lies
But don't you forget
The more you turn away, the more I want you to stay

Cold, but I'm still here, blind, β€˜cause I'm so blind, say never
We're far from comfortable this time
Cold, now we're so cold, mine, and you're not mine, say never
We're far from obvious this time

You're so endearing, you're so beautiful,
Well I don't look like they do, and I don't love like they do
But I don't hate like they do
Am I ever on your mind?

Cold, but I'm still here, blind, β€˜cause I'm so blind, say never
We're far from comfortable this time
Cold, now we're so cold, mine, and you're not mine, say never
We're far from obvious this time

Cold, you broke me from the very first night
I'd love you β€˜til the day that I die
I'm far too comfortable this time
Cold, I loved you from the very first night




You broke me β€˜til the day that I die
I'm far too obvious this time

Line by Line Meaning

Hello, I'm your martyr, will you be my gangster
I believe I am a sacrificial person for you, would you accept me as your savior?


Can you feel my trigger hand, moving further down your back
Can you sense my dangerous intentions getting closer to you?


When you hide, hide inside that body, But just remember that when I touch you, The more you shake, the more you give away
You may physically try to avoid me, but your reaction to my touch reveals your inner self.


Cold, but I'm still here, blind, β€˜cause I'm so blind, say never, We're far from comfortable this time, Cold, now we're so cold, mine, and you're not mine, say never, We're far from obvious this time
Our relationship is complicated and uncertain, we are both lost and distant from each other.


Wait, another minute here, time will kill us after all, Now can you feel its second hand wrapped around your neck
Let us not waste this moment because time is fleeting, and it will bring our end.


So fall into my eyes and fall into my lies, But don't you forget, The more you turn away, the more I want you to stay
Believe in my sweet lies and deception, and the more you try to leave, the more I want you to stay with me.


You're so endearing, you're so beautiful, Well I don't look like they do, and I don't love like they do, But I don't hate like they do, Am I ever on your mind?
You are very lovely and attractive to me, but I am not like other people, I don't conform to their ways of thinking, so do you ever think of me?


Cold, you broke me from the very first night, I'd love you β€˜til the day that I die, I'm far too comfortable this time, Cold, I loved you from the very first night, You broke me β€˜til the day that I die, I'm far too obvious this time
You have shattered me since our very first encounter, yet I will love you until my last breath, and I am too complacent in this doomed relationship, I loved you and you destroyed me, and now I am too transparent in my feelings.

Hello, I'm your martyr, will you be my gangster
Can you feel my trigger hand, moving further down your back
When you hide, hide inside that body
But just remember that when I touch you
The more you shake, the more you give away
COLD, but I'm still here, BLIND, β€˜cause I'm so blind, say never
We're far from comfortable this time
COLD, now we're so cold, MINE, and you're not mine, say never
We're far from obvious this time
Wait, another minute here, time will kill us after all
Now can you feel its second hand wrapped around your neck
So fall into my eyes and fall into my lies
But don't you forget
The more you turn away, the more I want you to stay
COLD, but I'm still here, BLIND, β€˜cause I'm so blind, say never
We're far from comfortable this time
COLD, now we're so cold, MINE, and you're not mine, say never
We're far from obvious this time
You're soooo endeeaarinngg, you're soooo beautifuuulll,
Well I don't look like they do, and I don't love like they do
But I don't hate like they do
Am I ever. on. your. mind?
COLD, but I'm still here, BLIND, β€˜cause I'm so blind, say never
We're far from comfortable this time
COLD, now we're so cold, MINE, and you're not mine, say never
We're far from obvious this time
COLD, you broke me from the very first night
I'd love you β€˜til the day that I die
I'm far too comfortable this time
COLD, I loved you from the very first night
You broke me β€˜til the day that I die
I'm far too obvious this time

Another hidden gem of rock that didn't get enough attention.

*** I LOVE THIS SONG ***

@RyanLee1986

I hate when people say this. The fact that all of your friends and classmates weren't listening to this made it all that much more special feeling. Going mainstream is rarely good.

@awokendemon2734

agreed

@stevenstolzenfeld3068

Sorry, but this song was mainstream af for like two years.

@RyanLee, I think it's quite SELFISH, for your personal reasonsπŸ™„, to not share this great music with ANYONE with an open mind... The more accolades the better... Even if they go commercial (which they did with new singer😒), I STILL go back to the early material and say a THANK YOU to the friend who introduced me to this treasure because they weren't selfish...❀🀘🏿
