Wind
Cold House Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nothing seems to hold
Clouds above me
I can't reach the sky
Why is gray the only colour
Nothing seems to move
Dead is the music
The music of the wind
No more sound
Everything around me
Stares me in the eye
Why does the ground make me see the devil
Is it just a dream, or just another war
I want to be the wind that blows through the sea
I want to be the rain that makes it live again
The lyrics to Cold House's song Wind are deeply melancholic and speak to a sense of loneliness and isolation that is often a part of human existence. The song's opening lines, "My feet are cold / Nothing seems to hold / Clouds above me / I can't reach the sky," set the tone for the rest of the song. The singer is struggling to find meaning and purpose in their life, feeling trapped and unable to connect with the world around them.
The lyrics also highlight the absence of color and sound in the singer's life. The line "Why is gray the only colour / Nothing seems to move / Dead is the music / The music of the wind" suggests a world that is devoid of life and vibrancy. The singer longs for laughter and sound, but is unable to find it.
The final lines of the song express a desire to be a force of nature, to be the wind and rain that bring life back to the world. This is a common theme in poetry and literature, the idea that nature is a source of renewal and growth. It is a powerful statement of hope and resilience in the face of despair.
