So Cold Lyrics

Oh,you can hear me cry
See my dreams all die
From where you're standing
On your own.
It's so quiet here
And I feel so cold
This house no longer
Feels like home.

Oh,when you told me you'd leave
I felt like I couldn't breathe
My aching body fell to the floor
Then I called you at home
You said that you weren't alone
I should've known better
Now it hurts much more.

You caused my heart to bleed and
You still owe me a reason
I can't figure out why...
Why I'm alone and freezing
While you're in the bed that she's in

I'm just left alone to cry.

Ohhh...Ohhh...Ehhhh...Ehhh...
Ohhh...Ohhh...Ehhhh...Ehhh...
Ohhh...Ohhh...Ehhhh...Ehhh...
Ohhh...Ohhh...Ehhhh...Ehhh...

You caused my heart to bleed and
You still owe me a reason
I can't figure out why...
You caused my heart to bleed and
You still owe me a reason
I can't figure out why...

Oh,you can hear me cry
See my dreams all die
From where you're standing
On your own.
It's so quiet here
And I feel so cold
This house no longer
Feels like home.

I think this is about a failed relationship. She found out her lover was cheating on her. When it comes down to it, her lover is not longer in love with her. This other person has moved on and they're leaving. At first, she doesn't believe it. She knows that her partner is gone but she doesn't believe it's for another person. So she calls them to check and make sure it's true. She finds out her partner isn't alone. Hearing this breaks her and she is saying her house no longer is her home, it no longer has the warmth and happiness it once had. And as she lays in bed, she wonders and wonders why it happened. Why her partner is in bed with someone else at that moment. She wants an explanation for why she's alone, why she's in bed, so cold from the lack of another body.

My Interpretation

@ughlame wow its true

I think this song is quite self explanatory. The man she loved has cheated on her and she never knew but she should have known. She is left feeling hurt from what he has done to her and he never gave her an explanation as to why he left her for another girl.

I think that this song could be about any sort of relationship. For me, I see this as a friendship. I see one friend abandoning the other for a different, romantic relationship, leaving the friend alone. Maybe the leaving friend is an aromantic's qp. I'm not sure, but the person singing is definitely feeling abandoned and alone.

My Interpretation

Disclaimer: I know this is not the real meaning...but when I heard the song this is how I interpreted it...so no judgement please:)

I think of this song as referring to domestic abuse. She starts out by saying that she feels alone and "so cold", while someone else (I'm guessing her ex-significant-other) is somewhere else. She says that "this house no longer feels like home," and to me that meant that after a while of being in a relationship with this person, he has started to abuse her. Although, what he did was awful and cruel, she is fighting two feelings...first of all being mentally (and physically) scarred and burnt out, and being relieved that he's finally leaving...but she also still loves him, as weird as that sounds. She calls him, because she can't handle being without him...and finds out that he left her for somebody else. She feels even worse now, and her "heart is bleeding" because she feels emotionally and physically pained. She can't figure out why she still wants him, so she just feels confused and left with no answers. Her house doesn't feel the same because without his energy it is much colder, and from all of the emotional and physical trauma she's been through.

Sorry that was super long and thank you for reading if you did:) have a great day and if this is happening to you please tell someone...for your own safety:))

@MaiaGoldring this song was written by Taryn Bosman in South Africa for our friends funeral. And yes she did love him dearly but their relationship didn't work. So you are all wrong on your comments.
