Frozen
Celldweller (2003) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It seems so real to me
Synthetic ecstasy, when her legs are open
True life behind a wall
Where men and angels fall
A fading memory, when my mind is frozen
I can see a frozen point in time
Tongue of fire tracing lips outline
Where frozen breath originates
With one motion of her waiting eyes
She strips everything away
This one moment is intensified
And colors all fade to grey
I am in the only place that i want to be
Though we know that it ends eventually
But it's alright because right now we're frozen
"I want to forget mistakes they've helped me make
It's better to be broken than to break"
Inside this fantasy
It seems so real to me
Synthetic ecstasy, when her legs are open
True life behind a wall
Where men and angels fall
A fading memory, when my mind is frozen
I can see a frozen point in time
That is easy to retrace
Light and darkness are both intertwined
The elements are in their place with
One motion of her wanting mind
The real world begins to fade
And all the hateful things I have become
Temporarily go away
Inside this fantasy
It seems so real to me
Synthetic ecstasy, when her legs are open
True life behind a wall
Where men and angels fall
A fading memory, when my mind is frozen
When my mind's frozen:
I'll take you anwhere you want to go
Far from anything that feels like home (lets go)
You are anyone I want to be (it's here and now, and now it's only you and me)
It's never enough (mmm that's true)
I want to stay here (yeah, and I do too)
Breakin' it down(takin' it down)
With smell(smell), touch(touch, taste(taste), sight(sight), and sound(sound)
How long will I be here without you near because I'm so cold
Break them first or I'll get broken is not what I was told, now I'm so cold
I'm so cold
So cold
Inside this fantasy
It seems so real to me
Synthetic ecstasy, when her legs are open
True life behind a wall
Where men and angels fall
A fading memory, when my mind is frozen
Inside this fantasy
It seems so real to me
Synthetic ecstasy, when her legs are open
True life behind a wall
Where men and angels fall
A fading memory, when my mind is frozen
The song "Frozen" by Celldweller explores the idea of living within a fantasy and how it can feel so real to an individual. The first verse describes the synthetic ecstasy that one can experience when indulging in their fantasy, which serves as a distraction from the outside world where both men and angels fall. The chorus talks about being caught in a moment of frozen time where the individual can see and experience everything they want to, and nothing else matters. It is as though everything has faded to grey, and there is only the fantasy and the person they share it with.
The second verse mentions how the fantasy helps the individual forget the mistakes they have made, and they prefer to be broken than to break. It again highlights that the fantasy is a place of refuge for the individual where they can escape the real world and find solace in their synthetic ecstasy. The bridge of the song describes how the fantasy becomes everything the individual wants, and they can be who they want to be. They are far away from everything that feels like home, and it is as though there is only you and the person you share your fantasy with.
Overall, the song "Frozen" portrays the idea of living within a fantasy world that is so real to an individual that they can feel synthetic ecstasy. It shows that every individual has different ways of escaping the real world, and although temporary, they serve as a refuge for people from their mistakes and the harsh realities of life.

Inside this fantasy
In my mind, I am lost in a fantasy world
It seems so real to me
The fantasy world feels all too real
Synthetic ecstasy, when her legs are open
The pleasure I feel with her is not natural, but it is intense
True life behind a wall
The reality I'm trying to avoid is blocked from me
Where men and angels fall
Even the strongest people can't resist this fantasy world I'm in
A fading memory, when my mind is frozen
When I snap out of it, the world of reality becomes a distant memory
I can see a frozen point in time
I'm fixated on a single moment in time
Where her figure still awaits
I remember her silhouette very clearly
Tongue of fire tracing lips outline
The intensity of our passion is vivid in my mind
Where frozen breath originates
I can remember the sensation of our breath intermingling
With one motion of her waiting eyes
Her gaze is enough to captivate me
She strips everything away
She has the power to make me forget all my troubles
This one moment is intensified
This moment feels more intense than anything else in my life
And colors all fade to grey
The rest of the world seems dull and lifeless in comparison
I am in the only place that i want to be
In this fantasy world, I have everything I want
Though we know that it ends eventually
I'm aware that it's not forever
But it's alright because right now we're frozen
In this moment, everything else falls away and we are together
"I want to forget mistakes they've helped me make
I want to move on from the things that have hurt me
It's better to be broken than to break"
I'd rather be the victim than the one doing the hurting
That is easy to retrace
My mind can revisit this moment effortlessly
Light and darkness are both intertwined
Our passion has both light and dark elements
The elements are in their place with
All the sensations are in perfect harmony
One motion of her wanting mind
Her desire is all it takes to pull us closer
The real world begins to fade
I'm fully immersed in this fantasy world
And all the hateful things I have become
My negative qualities disappear when I'm with her
Temporarily go away
I know these changes won't last forever
I'll take you anwhere you want to go
I'm willing to follow her anywhere
Far from anything that feels like home (lets go)
I want to escape from my daily life and routine
You are anyone I want to be (it's here and now, and now it's only you and me)
She represents everything I want to be, and I am entirely focused on her
It's never enough (mmm that's true)
I always crave more of this fantasy world
I want to stay here (yeah, and I do too)
I don't want to leave this moment
Breakin' it down(takin' it down)
I'm abandoning my inhibitions
With smell(smell), touch(touch, taste(taste), sight(sight), and sound(sound)
All my senses are heightened in this moment
How long will I be here without you near because I'm so cold
I'm afraid of losing her and being alone again
Break them first or I'll get broken is not what I was told, now I'm so cold
I'm in danger of losing myself if someone else doesn't break first
I'm so cold
Without her, I'm empty and alone

I feel like people overlook the meaning of this song and only see it as "that funny sex song". Like if you look closely (okay probably not too close the lyrics are right there) it's actually kinda sad. It's about an addiction. Not just to sex, but to the fantasy of being with someone. I like to think of this as a great companion piece to "welcome to the end" (and yes I put an overly long analysis on that video too...). This song is almost like the excitement of a new fantasy. Of escaping the lonely "cold" life outside and pretending to be someone else, and be with someone else.
Towards the end the narrator seems to realize how fucked up it all is,
"how long will I be here without you here because I am so cold! "Break them first or I'll get broken" is not what I was told
Now I'm so cold"
I think this shows it's about a breakup. But the singer initiated it. He broke up with her because he thought she would break up with him first. But now he's lonely because of it. thus, the fantasy.
Isolation is another theme that shows up in a lot of these songs, I'd even argue that isolation is the main theme of the whole album.
"better to be broken than to break."
or, better to isolate yourself from others than to continually get hurt by them.

This album is the one which I can say is the only one I have listened over and over for around 18 years. I simply can't get enough of it!
Been a Celldweller fan since 2003!!

I've been listening to this for around 8 years, and I still didn't get bored of it. It's amazing.

The funny sex song is Heart On, not this.
