'So when I'm crying alone
Yeah, when I'm cold as a dying stone'
The narrator is without feelings. He can't feel (or doesn't allow himself to feel) emotional highs and lows anymore, because of the things that he did and things that happened in the past.
He is asking someone (girl maybe) to show him what it's like to feel again. That his life is not only grey anymore, but full of colours (feelings.) 'Paint me the colors of sky and rain'
The sky as a beautifull blue (happiness) but also the colour of the rain (sadness). In other words, just to feel again. No high without a low.
Long story short: it's about bringing feelings back and just to feel alive again.
So true! It's all because of the things the traveller did in the past, the things that he abandoned (love, naivety or smt like that) to "try to have a go at what I thought I knew was real" But one day, he realized that "I'm cold as a dying stone", cause the things that he had thown away, are the things he actualy need most.

I specially love the part "And so I came to gaze upon the stars, when they were yet unborn. And consequently, tear at my old scars, and the mask I had outworn" and "I've heard the rumors, started fires, I sowed a sordid lot of plays for keeps for what I need, behold the demons that I freed", so imaginative! Everytimes listen to the song, I always have an odd idea that I've just closed the last page of a fiction, a poetic surreal fiction, slightly sad but not woeful.

Good song, catchy too.
nod I agree with you on this, MaximumMax. Seems logical.

This is the second song I heard by PotF and I absolutely love it. I'm thinking about doing a cover of it. :)
