A World So Cold

It means he is tired of caring about the world and its people. His "passion" and "trust" for people is "gone". He gives and gets kicked, and he is tired of tring to be an outgoing and nice person. His only sense of happiness is in being alone and not having anyone to shit on him.

This song has a deep meaning that can be interpreted many ways. That is what I love about Mudvayne's lyrics. They make things kind of abstract so that the listener can relate to it in their own way.

I love this song because it makes me think about how this world is so cold

i think every song we like, has something to do with what happened in our past. the song helps us and alows us all to move on.

bitchin song dont really care what it means

This is my opinion... and you should make your own also about the song too. I believe hat this song is about exactly what it says it is. The singer is singing about the fact that he is sick and tired of a world so cold. He explains how the world is cold in the intro, then goes on to tell you how he is running away from it, and why. This may be talking about a relationship that caused this, or just the world as a whole, I'm not quite sure there... here's a breakdown.

"When Passion's Lost and all the trust is gone For way to Far for Way to Long, Children Crying, Cast out and neglected.." This part is talking about the current setting of our world. Our trust is gone, with terrorists everywhere, and the passion is gone, because no one feels for this world like they used too... children crying, cast out and neglected is a normal occurence in our world today.. This begins the explantion of why our world is cold..

The chorus "Fever inside the storm, so I'm turning Away..." he tells you he sick and tired of the world being such a cold place, why, and what he is doing about it. Turning and running away, cause he's through mending the wounds of us [as a world, or maybe a relation of two people, not quite sure here].

"I'm backing out, I'm no pawn, no mother-fuckin slave to this, Never lied, Never left, Never lived, Never loved, Never lost, Never Hurt, Never Worry About being me, or anyone else..." [Lyrics taken from the CD's book jacket. They are NOT wrong] This breakdown may be directed towards a single person, but I see it directed towards the entire population. That's debatable. He goes on to say he needs to find a darkneded cornor, where it's safer and calmer. Maybe so he can rest for a while, and take a break from this world so cold.

Like I said, it's my opinion, not based on anything but looking over the lyrics outta the book and typing down my opinion here.

Traumatic experiences when we are young can have deep and profound impacts on a personal and societal level. Callous behaviour and attitudes are created early, repeated when growing up. When someone tries to put themselves out there, be friendly, expose themselves to make connections but are met with constant hostility, neglect, indifference or negativity it creates an animal. Everyone plays a part to some degree how outcasts behave a think. The moral is be kind, don’t be so quick to judge, show empathy.

Great song. It has a great melody. Plus I like the parts where Ryan comes in and harmonize with Chad, really cool. I can't wait for the video!

i dont know why no one has put up anything on this song, there is so much to say. not to mention the fact that the radio almost ruined the song by cutting it down. i love this song, it reminds me of a time when two of my friends died in a car crash. something that i wont ever forget, this song will help me with that.

to me, this song is about somebody shutting themself away from the world, but in the process, losing everything and basically saying that they running away and shutting themselves away from their problems. All-in-all, this is by far, Mudvaynes best song ever written!
