When I first heard this I thought it was about murder but I think it could be about a relationship as well. Also, its "come off hot" not hard. So, for the murder one I took it quite literally. The first two lines are saying that she'll never make things right once she's killed someone so she'll just cover it up. For the "too cold to shiver" line I imagine the girl running into the snowy woods to hide and eventually becoming too cold to shiver while thinking about the cold body of the girl she killed. Most of the 2nd verse is saying that see thinks people were looking out for her but she wasn't sure if they meant it. The last two lines mean that all the attention the dead girl is getting is taking away some of her fear."pictures for every place no affection just shut her up" means that everything looks hoe it should but it is not the same and now this girl can't show mercy."she can't afford to make it hot" would be that before she couldn't afford to show emotion and now, hiding outside, she can't waste heat even by moving because she's too cold."All the eyes behind the wall taking time towatch her crawl" were all the people who were watching how upset she seemed after the body was discovered."broken hearts are never true empty as the shadows walking over you" I think would mean she did the crime out of revenge, because she trusted someone else who's heart had also been broken but that person betrayed her. It feels like people are walking over her. Last two lines are that she metaphorically let someone walk over her. The background voices could be that she feels like the dead girl or the people she ran away from are still waiting for her. I imagine her dying, haunted, of hypothermia that night in a forest.
But that's just me. I think it could just as easily be thelivingfreak and AlecsPen's interpretations but those have already been typed. But this is what I imagined when I first heard it.
