Cold
Morris Rae Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You're not the one I adore
(And your hips never wave when you walk)
You're not the one I adore
And I won't ever change my mind
'Cause I'm so tired of being your love
'Cause you've gone cold
Cut me and my blood runs cold for you
Cold for you, cold for you
Cut me and my blood runs
Cut me and my blood runs cold for you
Cold for you, cold for you
(Your voice isn't kind when you talk)
You walk away when we talk
(And your lips go blue with your thoughts)
You never really cared what I thought
And I won't ever change my mind
'Cause I'm so tired of being your love
'Cause you've gone cold
Cut me and my blood runs
Cut me and my blood runs cold for you
Cold for you, cold for you
Cut me and my blood runs
Cut me and my blood runs cold for you
Cold for you, cold for you
(You fell for my charm and my affection)
I fell for you, I fell for you
(I fell for a taste of your complexion)
I fell for you, I fell for you
(You fell for my undivided attention)
But it didn't last
But it didn't last long
(I fell for your unique ways)
I fell for you, I fell for you
Cold for ya, eh
Cold for ya, eh
Better write about it (To tell you, tell you) (Ey)
Cut me and my blood runs
Cut me and my blood runs cold for you
Cold for you, cold for you
Cut me and my blood runs
Cut me and my blood runs cold for you
Cold for you, cold for you
Cut me and my blood runs
Cut me and my blood runs cold for you
Cold for you, cold for you
Cut me and my blood runs
Cut me and my blood runs cold for you
Cold for you, cold for you
Cold for ya, eh
Cold for ya, eh
Better write about it
(Ey)
Cold for ya, eh
Cold for ya, eh
Better write about it
The lyrics to Morris Rae's song "Cold" appear to be a reflection on a past romantic relationship that has turned sour - the singer has fallen out of love with the person they once adored. The lyrics describe physical changes in the person, such as their eyes not being pretty anymore, and their hips no longer waving when they walk. The singer also notes behavioral changes, like the person walking away during conversations and never really caring about the singer's thoughts. It's clear that the singer has made the decision to move on and no longer be the object of the other person's affection.
The chorus repeats the phrase "cut me and my blood runs cold for you," emphasizing the impact that the relationship had on the singer. The metaphor of blood running cold suggests a complete emotional detachment from the person they once loved. The bridge includes a recollection of the things that drew the two people together originally - the singer fell for the other person's charm, unique ways, and love of attention. However, these feelings have clearly faded over time, leading to the breakup.
Overall, the song is a relatable portrayal of the end of a romantic relationship and the emotions that come with it - the initial attraction, the growing unease, and finally, the decision to move on.

Watching those facial expressions, the multi-faceted personalities slicing through each other, a slight sadness, admitted moments of appreciation and caring, great music, so brilliant!
