Cool It Child
Hazlett Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Licking wounds
Foul news
Sweeping through
Ease we strung, praise be gone
Let loose
Recluse
I'm trying, I really am
To feel in my fingers again
Cool it child
Cool it child
We're on our own
This hideouts warm
Cool it child it's over
We hide from the wind
To build our home
This hideout's warm
When it's far
It's far from good
Shallow eyes
Do what they could
I travel north
See the Lord understood
When it's far
It's far from good
I'm trying, I really am
To feel in my fingers again
Cool it child
Cool it child
We're on our own
This hideout's warm
Cool it child, it's over
We hide from the wind
To build our home
This hideout's warm
Cool it child, it's over
We hide from the wind to build our home
This hideout's warm
Cool it child
Cool it child
Cool it child
The song "Cool It Child" by Hazlett is a poignant and introspective track that touches upon themes of pain, healing, and resilience. The lyrics suggest a sense of isolation and withdrawal, with lines such as "Recluse/Licking wounds/Foul news/Sweeping through." The singer seems to be in a state of emotional and physical pain, attempting to retreat and recover from whatever hurt they have experienced.
However, the song also includes a message of hope and perseverance. Lines like "Cool it child/We're on our own/This hideout's warm" and "We hide from the wind/To build our home" suggest that despite the challenges the singer is facing, they are finding comfort and solace in temporary isolation. The repetition of the phrase "cool it child" serves as a mantra of sorts, reminding the singer to take a breath and remain calm despite the difficulties they are facing.
Ultimately, the song is an exploration of the balance between pain and healing, isolation and community. It suggests that sometimes we need to withdraw in order to find strength to move forward, and that in moments of upheaval and crisis, we can find refuge in unexpected places.
