This Way
A Colour Cold Black Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You try to smile politely but it feels so goddamn cold
Consuming your voice like a lullaby's sound
I rather do without to know how many times I was wrong, yeah
As long as you go on this way
Deep under your skin I claimed
For your soul
That took my faith away
This one will remain
It's no use
Sowing the seed without rain
As long as you go on this way
Do not fool me only for being kind
Show me your true aversion for me, don't feed me with lies
I'm tangled in that emotional disease
It's just because you are dazing me with that sweet lullaby's sound
As long as you go on this way
Deep under your skin I claimed
For your soul
All that I found was a mistery
That took my faith away
This one will remain
It's no use
Sowing the seed without rain
As long as you go on this way

The lyrics of A Colour Cold Black's song "This Way" deal with the struggles of a relationship where one person is putting on a façade of politeness and kindness, but their true feelings of aversion and emotional disease are hidden beneath the surface. The singer is aware of this charade and the recurring nature of it, and chooses to distance themselves from the situation rather than continue to be deceived. The line "consuming your voice like a lullaby's sound" perfectly captures the idea of being entranced by someone's sweet words even though you know they are not sincere.
The singer claims to have claimed deep under the skin of this person, but all they found was a mystery that took their faith away. This is a powerful statement about the trust that is necessary in any relationship, and how when that trust is broken, it can be difficult to regain. The line "it's no use sowing the seed without rain" is a poignant metaphor for attempting to build something without the necessary ingredients or effort, emphasizing the futility of continuing in a relationship where there is no true connection.
Overall, the lyrics of "This Way" are a reflection on the complexities and challenges of relationships, particularly those where there is a lack of authenticity and honesty. It's a powerful reminder that true connection requires trust, effort, and a willingness to be vulnerable.

Your captivating voice is disorienting me like a soothing lullaby

What
Look at the stars in the big blank ink
Tell me what you feel and tell me what you think
Is it cold outside?
Is it cold out?
This is what I live for
This is a wonderous chill
And yes, it can be lonely
But hey, do what you will
Nobody likes me
Everyone's afraid of me
It's because I am weird
Nobody likes me
Everyone's afraid of me
It's because I am weird
Nobody likes me
Everyone's afraid of me
It's because I am weird
Nobody likes me
Everyone's afraid of me
It's because I am weird
Nobody likes me
