love letter
Crowhead Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The light has changed
I wonder
The times we had
Why I wonder
I saw your eyes
They went right through me
I'm the man of glass
I can't live I just have to die
When I'm gone you'll remember why
I used to smile, without my eyes
When I'm cold will you keep me warm
Guide my steps through the mystic storm...
Please wipe the snow away from my stone

You killed my love
Now I'm bitter
It had to end
You see... I'm dying
I call your name
You're not responding
I'm the man of glass

I can't live I just have to die
When I'm gone you'll remember why
I used to smile, without my eyes
When I'm cold will you keep me warm
Guide my steps through the mystic storm...
Please wipe the snow away from my stone

It hurts to know
You were so cold
I should grow old
We, together
Look! The first snow




It melts on my blood
I am the man of glass

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Crowhead's song "Love Letter" evoke feelings of heartbreak and despair. The first verse begins with a reference to a change in light, perhaps suggesting a shift in the singer's perception or mood. The singer then reflects on memories of a past relationship, wondering why things ended and lamenting the fact that they are now just a "man of glass," fragile and easily shattered. The chorus repeats the phrase "I can't live, I just have to die," emphasizing the singer's feelings of hopelessness and the sense that they are already dead inside. They also talk about wanting to be remembered and kept warm after they're gone, indicating a desire to be loved and remembered even in death.


The second verse is more direct in its expression of anger and bitterness towards the former lover who "killed my love." The singer calls out to them, but there is no response, and they feel increasingly isolated and alone. The chorus is repeated with a slight variation, as the singer adds the line "it hurts to know you were so cold." The song ends with a grim image of the first snow melting on the singer's blood, emphasizing the themes of death and loss.


Overall, "Love Letter" is a haunting and melancholy song that explores the pain of lost love and the feeling of being trapped in a state of emotional fragility. The repeated phrase "I can't live, I just have to die" highlights the sense of hopelessness and resignation that permeates the song, while the references to winter and snow create a sense of quiet, mournful stillness.

Después de 20 años, aún te sigo guardando en mi alma, pues siempre escuchábamos este disco en la adolescencia. Tu y yo recostados en el cementerio, viendo las estrellas, jurandonos amor eterno. Pero nos olvidamos que la vida tiene sus propios planes... Aún te llamo en mis noches... Abril Paola
