Lyrics
I sit here staring wondering how I'm supposed to deal
I am sitting here contemplating how to cope with a situation.
I live my life with a certain care and everything I feel
I lead my life with careful consideration for my emotions.
I stay here waiting for the reasons to believe its for real
I remain here, waiting for convincing reasons to believe it's genuine.
So now I find myself here facing your cold blue steel
Now I find myself confronting the cold and threatening nature of your gaze (metaphorically described as "cold blue steel").
Why you got me staring down the barrel of this gun
You have put me in a situation where I feel threatened.
I tell you I need you all you do is run
Despite expressing my need for you, you consistently choose to avoid commitment.
You know I want you not just something I'm saying
I genuinely desire you, and it's not just empty words.
Come on home and let me love you once again
Come back home and allow me to love you once more.
Its how I feel
Expressing the emotions I am experiencing.
Cold blue steel
The recurring theme of facing the challenging and cold reality symbolized by "cold blue steel."
I know at times you find me over bearing overwhelming it's true
Acknowledging that I might be overwhelming at times, but it doesn't compare to the love I have for you.
But these cant compare to the love I got tied up on you
Comparing the challenges faced to the deep love held for the person.
I stand here waiting for the reasons to believe it's true
Waiting for convincing reasons to believe in the truth of the relationship.
So I will stay here and face your steel so cold so blue
Committing to facing the cold and challenging aspects of the relationship.
Why you got me staring down the barrel of this gun
Reiteration of feeling threatened and vulnerable.
I tell you I need you all you do is run
Expressing the frustration of needing the person while they continue to avoid commitment.
You know I want you not just something I'm saying
Reaffirming the genuine desire for the person, not just superficial words.
Come on home and let me love you once again
Requesting the person to return and rekindle the love.
Its how I feel
Reiterating the emotional state being experienced.
Cold blue steel
Emphasizing the persistent presence of the challenging and cold reality ("cold blue steel").
Its how I feel
Repetition of the emotional state.
Cold blue steel
Repetition of the challenging and cold nature of the situation.
Why you got me staring down the barrel of this gun
Reiteration of feeling threatened and vulnerable.
I tell you I need you all you do is run
Expressing frustration at the continued avoidance of commitment.
You know I want you not just something I'm saying
Reaffirming the genuine desire for the person, not just superficial words.
Get on my shoulders I can carry the weight aww yeah
Offering support by suggesting the ability to bear the weight of the situation.
Its how I feel (how I feel)
Reiteration of the emotional state.
Cold blue steel (cold blue steel)
Emphasizing the persistent presence of the challenging and cold reality ("cold blue steel").
Its how I feel (how I feel)
Repetition of the emotional state.
Facing cold blue steel
Facing the harsh and cold reality symbolized by "cold blue steel."
Facing cold blue steel (It's how I feel)
Repetition of facing the challenging and cold reality.
Facing cold blue steel
Continued emphasis on facing the harsh and cold reality.
Facing cold blue steel (It's how I feel)
Repetition of facing the challenging and cold reality.
Facing cold blue steel yeah
Final acknowledgment of confronting the difficult and cold situation.
