Cold Air
The Hics Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If only i can feel your stare now
Oooh, cold air

He keeps in shadow
Once warm, now ceases to thaw
My offering was simple
Yet to get to our downfall
In the tireless slumber, suffering from withdrawal
And now I see your silence signs
All along was love in your eyes

If only I could feel your stare now
Cold air!
If only you would let me in now
Cold air!
If only I could feel your stare now
Cold air!
If only you would let me in now
Cold air!

Right into darkness, so endless
Silence filling the air
Looking for a sign to find the secret you're keeping
It always have, always seems to keep me from leaving
But I will sleep until it dies
Nothing left here to.

Falling to, to the ground
If only you would let me in.
Falling to, to the ground
If only i could feel your st...
Cold air
In. oh
Cold.

If only I could feel your stare now
Cold air!
If only you would let me in now
Cold air!
If only I could feel your stare now
Cold air!




If only you would let me in now
Cold air!

Overall Meaning

GTA blew this song up lol...The Hics are criminally underrated....Every single song of theirs I've found has throughly impressed me. Their sound is so layered and complex, but not extra. So easy to vibe out to.

@bmslhs

Right, I wish the song was more known. They deserve to be acknowledged for their great work.
