Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Hide your empty eyes
Every moment, every whisper
Separates you from me
I've been screaming
Won't you let me in?
Let me see a trace
Of the places hidden
Answer me,
Till the day that you do
I'll be one step behind you
Answer me,
Till the day that you do
I'll be waiting here for you
Answer me,
Till the day that you do
I'll be one step behind you
Answer me,
Till the day that you do
I'll be waiting here for you
Needles sting me
When you look away
And your silence
Sounds like deafening screams to me
I've been waiting
Won't you open your heart?
And let me in
Please let me in
Answer me,
Till the day that you do
I'll be one step behind you
Answer me,
Till the day that you do
I'll be waiting here for you
Answer me,
Till the day that you do
I'll be one step behind you
Answer me,
Till the day that you do
I'll be waiting here for you
Free your mind from doubt
All you have, is now
Free you mind from shame
It will only bring you pain
Answer me,
Till the day that you do
I'll be one step behind you
Answer me,
Till the day that you do
I'll be waiting here for you
Answer me,
Till the day that you do
I'll be one step behind you
Answer me,
Till the day that you do
I'll be waiting here for you
The lyrics of "Frozen" by Delain convey a sense of longing and desperation as the singer tries to reach out to someone who seems emotionally distant and closed off. The "misted windows" symbolize the barriers and emotional walls that separate the two individuals. The empty eyes suggest a lack of connection and understanding.
The singer expresses their frustration and plea to be let in, to see what lies beneath the surface of the other person. They have been pleading and waiting for a response, wanting to bridge the gap between them. The repetition of the line "Answer me, till the day you do" reflects their persistence and the need for acknowledgement and communication.
The lyrics further emphasize the pain of being ignored or dismissed when the singer mentions how the other person's silence feels like "deafening screams" to them. This silence is portrayed as hurtful and profound, causing the singer to feel needles stinging them and intensifying their longing to be heard and understood.
The final verse offers a possible solution, encouraging the person to free their mind from doubt and shame. It suggests that embracing the present moment is crucial in order to move forward and overcome the pain caused by emotional distance. The singer reiterates their commitment to waiting, remaining one step behind, until the other person is ready to open up and respond.
Overall, "Frozen" explores the theme of longing for emotional connection and the frustration of being unable to break through the barriers of another person's emotional withdrawal. It portrays the desperate desire to be seen and heard, while highlighting the importance of addressing and releasing doubts and shame in order to find healing and connection.

Misted windows
Clouded or foggy windows
Hide your empty eyes
Conceal the void or emptiness in your gaze
Every moment, every whisper
Each passing second, every quiet spoken word
Separates you from me
Creates distance and disconnect between us
I've been screaming
I have been crying out desperately
Won't you let me in?
Please allow me to understand and connect with you
Let me see a trace
Allow me to glimpse even a small hint
Of the places hidden
Of the secrets and parts of you that are concealed
Under your skin
Deep within your being
Answer me,
Respond to me
Till the day that you do
Until the moment you do so
I'll be one step behind you
I will be closely following and supporting you
I'll be waiting here for you
I will patiently wait for you in this place
Needles sting me
The pain I feel is sharp and piercing
When you look away
When you avert your gaze
And your silence
Your lack of words or response
Sounds like deafening screams to me
Feels overwhelming and distressing, like loud screams
I've been waiting
I have been patiently anticipating
Won't you open your heart?
Please allow yourself to be vulnerable and let me in
Please let me in
Kindly allow me to be part of your life
Free your mind from doubt
Release your thoughts and uncertainties
All you have, is now
The present moment is all that truly exists
Free your mind from shame
Let go of feelings of guilt or embarrassment
It will only bring you pain
Those emotions will only cause suffering

Won't you let me in?
Let me see a trace

[Chorus:]
Answer me,
Till the day that you do
I'll be one step behind you
Answer me,
Till the day that you do
I'll be waiting here for you [x2]
Needles sting me
When you look away
And your silence
Sounds like deafening screams to me
I've been waiting
Won't you open your heart?
And let me in
Please let me in
[Chorus]
Free your mind from doubt
All you have, is now
Free you mind from shame
It will only bring you pain
[Chorus]

This was the first Delain song I've heard and now I'm a fan of Delain since 10 years (2009).
@ChrisRoms
I just knew them and this is one of the best songs they have!
@OneWheelMan
I wish they'd play this live more. I guess they have a lot of songs to choose from these days. Seen Delain 3 times so far, may there be many more.
@edsonpaulino7
Lindo demais ! Junto com Sirenia, Lacuna Coil e Within Temptation, são as que eu mais tenho ouvido de dois anos pra cá.

@Closminding
SUPERB. Gives me the Chills. In the days when she RULED THE WORLD (or should have done). She was young and carefree and the world stretched before her with that invitation to STARDOM (that never came 😔) 🤪💗💞💜
@martijnjanssen4419
The Invitation that Martijn gave her. He made her. And now he has given the invitation to another great singer. Diana.
