Frozen
State Champs Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Now you wanna make the minutes last
If that’s not a miss, what do we call that?
Maybe I messed up a little
Or maybe I’m a little messed up
We’ve been walking on ice, but is it strong enough?
With everything that’s burning up inside of me
Here’s something for your diary
You had the opportunity to find out just what we could be
But all was frozen after all
Say that I was way too different
Now you know me in a different way
So let me cross it off, I haven’t lost enough
I think it’s safe to say
I tripped up now but I’m still standing
And I won’t be standing still
We’re not thawing out, don’t think we ever will
With everything that’s burning up inside of me
Here’s something for your diary
You had the opportunity to find out just what we could be
But all was frozen after all
You know I tried my best
I asked for your heart, but you asked for a breather
Now I feel it in my chest
I wasn’t ready for this, but you weren’t either
With everything that’s burning up inside of me
Here’s something for your diary
You had the opportunity to find out just what we could be
But all was frozen after all
The song "Frozen" by State Champs explores themes of missed opportunities and the aftermath of a failed relationship. The lyrics paint a picture of someone who initially doubted their ability to endure a difficult situation but has now become determined to make the most of it. The opening lines, "Thought I wouldn’t last a minute, now you wanna make the minutes last," suggest that the person in question has surprised themselves and their partner with their resilience. They are questioning the contradiction between their previous expectations and their current situation.
The singer acknowledges that they may have made some mistakes or have personal flaws, as expressed in the line, "Maybe I messed up a little, or maybe I'm a little messed up." This self-reflection shows vulnerability and acknowledges that both parties in the relationship may have contributed to its downfall. The imagery of "walking on ice" symbolizes the fragility of their relationship and the uncertainty of whether it can withstand the challenges they face.
The chorus emphasizes the frustration and disappointment felt by the singer. They express their disappointment that the relationship couldn't reach its potential, represented by the line, "You had the opportunity to find out just what we could be, but all was frozen after all." The word "frozen" conveys a sense of stagnation and a missed chance for growth or transformation.
The bridge of the song addresses the rejected request for a committed relationship, as the singer states, "You know I tried my best, I asked for your heart, but you asked for a breather." This indicates a mismatch in readiness and willingness to invest emotionally. The final lines express a mutual unpreparedness for the challenges they encountered.
Overall, "Frozen" captures the feelings of regret, lost potential, and the longing for a different outcome in a failed relationship.

Thought I wouldn’t last a minute
I believed I wouldn't endure for even a short time
Now you wanna make the minutes last
Now you desire to prolong the duration of our time together
If that’s not a miss, what do we call that?
If that's not a mistake, how can we describe it?
Maybe I messed up a little
Perhaps I made a small error
Or maybe I’m a little messed up
Or perhaps I am slightly flawed
We’ve been walking on ice, but is it strong enough?
We have been navigating through a delicate situation, but is it stable?
With everything that’s burning up inside of me
With all the intense emotions consuming me
Here’s something for your diary
Here's something for you to remember
You had the opportunity to find out just what we could be
You had the chance to discover our true potential
But all was frozen after all
But everything became stagnant in the end
Say that I was way too different
Claim that I was excessively unique
Now you know me in a different way
Now you have a new understanding of me
So let me cross it off, I haven’t lost enough
Allow me to cross it off my list, I haven't endured sufficient loss
I think it’s safe to say
I believe it's appropriate to state
I tripped up now but I’m still standing
I made a mistake but I'm still resilient
And I won’t be standing still
And I won't remain motionless
We’re not thawing out, don’t think we ever will
We're not recovering, don't believe we ever will
You know I tried my best
You know I exerted my utmost effort
I asked for your heart, but you asked for a breather
I requested your love, but you required a break
Now I feel it in my chest
Now I feel it deeply in my heart
I wasn’t ready for this, but you weren’t either
I wasn't prepared for this, but neither were you

Thought I wouldn't last a minute
Now you wanna make the minutes last
