Cold Water Lyrics
I feel faint what have i just heard,
I feel dead from the neck up,
Could you pour some water on my face,
It feels cold at least I feel something else.
I am not ready.
It's hard enough to believe you've left us,
But no goodbyes and no signs that you hurt,
I could cry like you should of years ago,
So I'll see you when i'm ready to go.
I am not ready.
I feel dead from the neck up,
Could you pour some water on my face,
It feels cold at least I feel something else.
But no goodbyes and no signs that you hurt,
I could cry like you should of years ago,
So I'll see you when i'm ready to go.

I think this track is about someone who committed suicide, and left without saying goodbye, or saying that they were hurting. Quite sad, but I think theres some anger in there too, like the lines "I could cry like you should of years ago, So I'll see you when i'm ready to go."
Thats my reckoning anyway :-)
Burkey, I think u're right! the "I could cry like you should of years ago" is resentment for the suicide, well in my opinion anyways....
Lightbody said he wrote it after his grandmother's death. The album is dedicated to her
So that's who Rebecca Wray is! I get it now! It's kinda nice "I'll see you when I'm ready to go" refers to the fact Lightbody reckons he will see her when he dies. It almost gives hope.
