Frozen

I was abused by my ex, so spot on for this one!

It's about an 1800's family, a mother, a father, and their daughter. (I will tell the story from the daughters point of view)

Mother was just serving my favorite meal when my daddy came through the front door. He threw his overcoat on the chair he would normally sit on and went into the kitchen to get his bottle of alcohol from the pantry. I had only taken my first bite of food when he strode back out and began shouting ugly things at my mommy who only stared at him blankly. This angered my daddy who suddenly put the bottle down and grabbed my mommy, dragging her up the stairs by her arm. I heard her shrieking and shouting for me to stay downstairs as my daddy slammed the door to their room, imprisoning my mommy. From where I sat, all I could hear was my daddy shouting ugly words and my mommy screaming. Suddenly I heard her shouting my name along with other words that were muffled from the ruckus my daddy was making. I grabbed my porcelaine doll and ran up the stairs. The noise from in my parents room was deafening. As I stood facing the door I prayed a silent prayer hoping that our family would be okay. Holding the doll close I creaked the door open, my mother was on the ground shielding herself with her hands. When she saw me my daddy turned and saw me. My mother begged for him to leave me alone he began walking towards me his fists clenched, leaving my mother alone in her room to cry her eyes out. He dragged me to my room and slammed the door only one word escaping his teeth. "Sleep". I obeyed only to be woken again later that night, it was my daddy. I sat up in my bed. He sat down at the foot of my began and began to remove my covers from the bottom up. "What are you doing?" I asked only to be answered by silence. I suddenly heard my mother banging the door with her fists again begging my father to leave me alone he only quickened what he was doing to me. Suddenly I realizede what he was doing. With my small fists I tryed to get him off me but to no avail. "Daddy no! Don't do this to me! Leave me be!" Suddenly everything went dark. I only saw my mother being led away by the police from my window. I never saw my daddy again.

I can't believe there are no comments on this song... it's absolutely beautiful.

personally, i like to look at this as being unable to express one's love to those that truly matter. i know i find it hard to talk to others about mostly anything i feel emotionally, and it's like being frozen.

I think this song is about abuse not only of a child of a wife or another grown female. The wife or grown female kills him and goes to jail and the child grows up and doesn't understand her actions and doesn't appriciate what a good deed she actually did for her. I am refering to the video.

the song may have written to depict child abuse and it is a beautiful song with a powerful video but the beauty in songs is you can make them what you want them to be.

If you can't relate to the song from a child abuse aspect you can still relate it to another relationship in your life.

Its a nice song with some many meanings Only the person listening to it can determine its meaning

In my opinion, I think the song is about feeling powerless in a situation and not knowing what to do but ultimately resorting to something you wish you never had to and know you're going to regret, i.e like you see in the video, as the mother murdered her husband for abusing their daughter and the lyrics.

The video for this song is about child abuse, and some of the bands proceeds are going to help the cause.

I'm not sure I get that completely from the song. The lyrics sure, but the vocals and music don't imply anything I can relate with that.

The vibe I get from this song's more about being emotionally damaged and letting a loved one go cos you don't want to drag them down with you. Yes, that can relate to the child abuse aspect, but it could also involve any type of emotional damage.

Whatever, at least it's going to a good cause.

i LOVE this song...the video is so sad
