Snow Blind
Ace Frehley Lyrics

Ace Frehley's song "Snow Blind" is a clear depiction of the struggles of being on the road as a musician, away from the comfort of home and loved ones. The song starts with Ace expressing his loneliness and how hard it is to feel right when he is away from his lady. He wishes he could see her, but regardless of how much he wants to, he can't. The chorus "I'm snowblind, I can't see a thing, I'm snowblind, I don't wanna sing," speaks to his inability to focus and how the distance is hindering his creativity. The line "I'm snowblind, I think I'm lost in space" says it all, as he feels untethered and disconnected from reality.

The second verse continues this theme, with Ace wondering when he is ever going to get the chance to come back home. He is also dealing with feelings of depression and moving around without any form of direction, which further makes him introspective about his state of mind. Finally, he acknowledges that the reason he is feeling this way is that he is snowblind, and this inability to see and focus is causing him to be disconnected from himself and the world around him.

Ace Frehley's "Snow Blind" song is a reminder that even rock stars struggle with the complexities of life. It exemplifies the torturous nature of being on tour and away from family, friends and loved ones. It's a testament to the creative process, how the environment can impact it and further, how it is impossible to create if one can't get the right headspace.
