I’ve heard stories through silence and we laugh at the end
and declare that today was the best day we lived
but the end of the night draws a clam to the dark
where I dream you exist in the places you aren’t

I’m cold inside
and these pictures can’t even explain what’s missing in my life.
The coldest of calendars I couldn’t have it any better
Half the time I am alive just to see your smile

I’m cold inside
I’m cold inside

There’s a letter here waiting to go in the mail
In my head its all there but I’m not quite prepared to fade away
Don’t fade away
Somehow I’ll try to do this right

I’m cold inside
and these pictures can’t even explain what’s missing in my life.
The coldest of calendars I couldn’t have it any better
Half the time I am alive just to see your smile

Sometimes I feel cold inside It feels like I am sleeping outside.
Indoors there’s a light I can in your eyes

I've seen nights without sleep
Days without daylight
These memories I keep wont keep me warm at night
The coldest part is the heart that we share
is breaking apart and you're not even here
to say things will get better
so freezing out
blanket my discontent til I sleep again

I’m cold inside

I’m saving a story that won’t begin til you’re there

    I wish I really could define this song into a real meaning but I really don't think it's so concreate to make a true defination.

    i've been crying to this song for the past two days since i've discovered it... i think the meaning is kind of hard to figure out, it seems like the guy is missing something, but the something is still somewhat in his life from the line "half the time i'm alive just to see your smile"... i dont know, interesting song

    This song is good in its normal version, but listen to the piano version of this and you'll cry its so good.

    In total agreement with Poison.. The Piano just makes that intro an orgasam waiting to happen.. It has also been deemed High Times SOng of the Year.. listen to the song high, i swear it elevates its beauty 100 times..

    ok, My interpretation of this song is that he loves some one but cannot have them or is going through a hard time with them "The coldest part is the heart that we share is breaking apart and you're not even here to say things will get better " and the rest of the song is him tellin this person not to leave becasue of all the good things that have happened " I’ve heard stories through silence and we laugh at the end and declare that today was the best day we lived"

    Don't laugh at me, but I was laying down listening to it and I think it's about some lonely guy, and a girl he only gets to see in his dreams. or about an imaginary girl, a fantasy. probably not, but that's what I'll think of it as anyway.

    I like that last one ^, agreed but not necessarily someone unreal, maybe like a girl he works with or sees everywhere but doesn't have the nerve to talk to. Maybe.
