My Dead Bride
ColdWorld Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Your eyes, so cold...
I touch this pale white skin.
Let sorrow catch my soul,
Emptiness so deep within...
The time will come
When our souls
Are together
As one.
In eternity.





Overall Meaning

The lyrics to ColdWorld's "My Dead Bride" are hauntingly beautiful as they describe the singer's longing for their departed love. The opening lines of the song, "Your eyes, so cold... I touch this pale white skin" evoke the image of a corpse and immediately set a tone of morbidity and loss. The first person point of view reinforces the idea that the singer is grieving for someone they have lost, and the stark contrast between the coldness of the eyes and the pale white skin seems to emphasize the idea of loss and emptiness.


In the following lines, the singer lets their sorrow catch their soul, a poetic way of saying that they are deeply consumed with grief. The phrase "emptiness so deep within" further emphasizes this sense of loss and isolation. Yet, the song ends on a note of hope. The singer believes that one day, they will be reunited with their loved one in eternity, and their souls will be together as one. This image not only speaks to the singer's personal beliefs about the afterlife but also seems to offer a comforting note amidst the sadness.


Line by Line Meaning

Your eyes, so cold...
I see the lack of emotion in your eyes.


I touch this pale white skin.
I feel the lifelessness of your skin.


Let sorrow catch my soul,
I welcome the feeling of grief to overwhelm me.


Emptiness so deep within...
I have an overwhelming sense of emptiness inside.


The time will come
There will be a point in time


When our souls
Our spiritual beings


Are together
Join as one


As one.
Unbreakable and eternal.

@Eddie Johnston these are the lyrics i got from georg borner (the artist) back on his myspace back in the day. the only difference is that he wrote ''the sorrow catch my soul'

Well I don't understand much about depression metal but this is extraordinary art ! what a special feeling this brings ... not any metal band can create this type of music exactly ... it took me some time to mental process this ... but now I'm glad to know that...
