Cold
Mating Ritual feat. Lizzy Land Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Even though It's cold outside
The fog of pushing through my mind
I think I've seen enough of you
Oh I've had enough of you
I think it's gonna rain tonight
Cover up the stains with wine
Cause heavens always new
An unattractive truth
But you [?]

You know that I've been looking [?] down before
Now it's just something else I cant explore
I feel like everytime, takes less and less
To move on with my mind, there's nothing left

(Now I want)
All those days I want to set my eyes, I want
(Now I want)
All those feelings coming up my spine
Everyday I want more and I
I want, more of you

I've been waiting for you to call my bluff
I cant feel the difference in the smoke
Clouds in my mind, these bones are dry
Even though im trying to get it right
Still between my veins I cant describe
But this fire's nice, these shadows alive

You know that i've been looking down before
Now it's just something else I cant explore
I feel like everytime, takes less and less
To move on with my mind, there's nothing left

(Now I want)
All those days I want to set my eyes, I want
(Now I want)
All those feelings coming up my spine
Everyday I want more and I
I want, more of you

All those days I want to set my eyes, I want
All those feelings coming up my spine




Everyday I want more and I
I want, more of you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics in Mating Ritual's song "Cold" seems to be about a strained romantic relationship; the coldness possibly representing a feeling of distance or detachment. The first verse suggests that the singer has had enough of the person they're addressing, and the line "Cover up the stains with wine" could be interpreted as an attempt to mask or forget the problems in the relationship. The second verse brings up a feeling of waiting or uncertainty ("I've been waiting for you to call my bluff"), potentially implying that the singer is unsure if the relationship is worth continuing. The chorus repeats the phrase "All those days I want to set my eyes, I want", which could be interpreted as expressing a desire to return to happier times in the relationship, or perhaps a desire to leave it altogether.


Overall, the lyrics seem to be grappling with complicated emotions and difficulties in communication within a relationship, with a sense of disillusionment and longing brewing just beneath the surface.

Lyrics:

Even though it's cold outside
The fog ain't pushin through my mind
I think I've seen enough of you
But have I had enough of you

I think it's gonna rain tonight
Cover up the stains with white
Heaven's always new
An unattractive truth
To choose

You know that I've been broken down before
Now it's just something else I can't explore
I feel like every time, it takes less and less
To move on with my mind, there's nothing left

Now I want more
(I want more those days I want the sun in my eyes)
Now I want more
(I want more those feelings crawling up spine)
Every day I want more of the night
I want more of you

I've been waiting for you to call my bluff
I can feel the difference, steam and smoke
Clouds in my mind, these bones are dry
You know I've been trying to get it right
Steel between my veins, can't describe
But this fire's nice, these shadows lie

You know that I've been broken down before
Now it's just something else I can't explore
I feel like every time, it takes less and less
To move on with my mind, there's nothing left

Now I want more
(I want more those days I want the sun in my eyes)
Now I want more
(I want more those feelings crawling up spine)
Every day I want more of the night
I want more of you.
