Life got Cold Lyrics
Oh, yeah
We text as we eat
As we listen to the freaks
As we wait for the ride away
We text as we talk
We're running as we walk
Cause we surf our little souls away
We smoke as we choke
As we sink another coke
And we grin when it blows our mind
We skate as we date
As we slowly suffocate
We're running, we're running, we're running out of time
[Chorus]
My life got cold
It happened many years ago
When summer slipped away
So chill now whoa
We've gotten many years to go
So take it day by day
And long ago I lost my soul
to some forgotten dream
But how was I supposed to know
it wasn't what it seemed?
And even though the last hello
has left me on the floor
I don't believe in Romeos and heroes anymore
We spend as we lend
'cause we're happy to pretend
everything's gonna be okay
We shake as we wake
never give until we take
and we hate when we have to pay
We flirt while we work
to forget about the hurt
and the trash that we left behind
We sink as we swim
The ice is wearing thin
We're running we're running we're running out of time
[Chorus: x2]
We text as we eat
As we listen to the freaks
As we wait for the ride away
We text as we talk
We're running as we walk
Cause we surf our little souls away
We smoke as we choke
As we sink another coke
And we grin when it blows our mind
We skate as we date
As we slowly suffocate
We're running, we're running, we're running out of time
My life got cold
It happened many years ago
When summer slipped away
So chill now whoa
We've gotten many years to go
So take it day by day
And long ago I lost my soul
to some forgotten dream
But how was I supposed to know
it wasn't what it seemed?
And even though the last hello
has left me on the floor
I don't believe in Romeos and heroes anymore
'cause we're happy to pretend
everything's gonna be okay
We shake as we wake
never give until we take
and we hate when we have to pay
We flirt while we work
to forget about the hurt
and the trash that we left behind
We sink as we swim
The ice is wearing thin
We're running we're running we're running out of time

Its so relaxing, even more than "I'll Stand By You"!
This song is so good, I love it. I think it talks about how people's hearts can get broken and they pretend as though nothings wrong with them and then suddenlly everything comes crashing down on them.
Its about disillusionment with life and how technology (text messages & the Internet) distance us from real life.
Realisation that the fairy tales we heard of when we were young aren't true in this part of the chorus:
"I lost my soul, to some forgotten dream" & "I dont believe in Romeos and Heroes, any more"
I always thing this line relates to cocaine rather than coca cola in the way its said and the "grin as it blows our mind" reference:
"we sink another coke, And we grin and it, blows our mind"
its actually how i feel just now everything was perfect, then it all crashed down on me and it never real,y kicked in what id lost until weeks later it makes me feel sad and so its not the kind of stuff i listen to anymore i love Girls Aloud and I have since i was 11 :)
this is one of my faves by them
; Kay, im not a fan atol but i love this song. I was wondering if anyone knew who wrote the lyrics? thanks =] x
Xenomania wrote the lyrics: Miranda Cooper, Brian Higgins, Nick Coler and Lisa Cowling. :)

i kinda think this song is referin 2 drugs.
'we choke as we smoke as we sink another coke an we grin as it blows our minds'
'we shake as we wake never give until we take and we hate wen we have to pay'
It could of been that a relationship went bad so they turned to drugs. 'i dont believe in romeos and heroes anymore'. This is obviously about a man. They've now realised lifes not a fairytale.
This song has a special place in my heart. It still gives me goosebumps and the lyrics still have a great impact on me. I'm not a Girls Aloud-fan, but this their best song, without a doubt.
