Punchline Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'll break through to you some way
You'll be my alarm clock
To wake me from this endless day
And when its all over
Well you'll be calling out for me
Finish what you started
And do it all over
What am I supposed to do about it
I sit around and wait for you
What am I supposed to say to you
You already know I'm in love with you
(And I hope that you love me too)
You broke me down without saying a thing
All it took was for me to see you with him
I'll pack my bags and move to Alaska
Where it's as cold as you
What am I supposed to do about it
I sit around and wait for you
What am I supposed to say to you
You already know I'm in love with you
(and I hope that you love me too)
What am I supposed to do about it
I sit around and wait for you
What am I supposed to say to you
You already know I'm in love with you
(and I hope that you love me too)
And as I let this note ring out
The only thing I think about
Is how I never took a chance on you
The way you used to look at me
Has changed so clearly I can see
Things will always be so awkward between you and me.
The lyrics to Punchline's song Cold as You depict a story of unrequited love and longing for a person who is seemingly unattainable. The singer expresses his desire to break through to this person, to have them serve as his "alarm clock" to wake him from his endless state of longing. He hopes that this person will call out for him when it is all over, indicating a feeling of inevitability that they will eventually be together.
However, there is a sense of frustration and helplessness in the first verse as the singer asks what he is supposed to do and say about his love for this person; they already know how he feels. The second verse reveals a pivotal moment where the singer's heart is broken after seeing the person he loves with someone else. He then decides to move away to Alaska, a place that is as "cold as you," referring not only to the physical climate but also to the emotional distance he feels between himself and this person.
The final verse reflects on missed opportunities and the knowledge that things will always be awkward between them. The singer acknowledges that he never took a chance on this person and regrets that he let his feelings go unexpressed. Overall, the lyrics of Cold as You convey the painful and complex emotions that come with unrequited love.
