Cold and Dark, Cold and Dark
Embracing Loneliness: Soft Idiot's Cold and Dark Journey
Lyrics
I think I wanted something similar
I desired something resembling a past experience.
Resemblant pause but not the same
A momentary pause that looks alike but isn't identical.
Radiant fog, something beautiful
A beautiful, glowing mist or haze.
I thought I heard my name
I thought I heard someone calling my name.
Familiar breath felt fond and dissonant
A breath that is both familiar and conflicting in emotions.
The words that struck your very soul
Words that deeply resonate with your soul.
Living in a tired accident
Existing in a worn-out incident or circumstance.
Nothing left to let go
There's nothing remaining to release or relinquish.
All singers are liars
The assertion that all singers are untruthful.
Their loneliest lies get through to you
Their most isolated falsehoods manage to impact you.
Cold and dark, oh cold and dark
A description of a desolate and obscure state.
The loneliest flame in a frozen hearth
The loneliest flame within a frozen fireplace.
I'm like any other animal
A self-aware acknowledgment of being like any other creature.
I make a piece, I know it fits
The creation of something that perfectly fits.
I wake up covered in gingko leaves
Awakening with ginkgo leaves covering oneself.
The rancid berries on my lips
The unpleasant taste of spoiled berries on the lips.
All animals are liars too
The statement that all animals are also deceptive.
Their loveliest lies grow old and cruel
Their most charming falsehoods become aged and harsh.
Cold and dark, oh cold and dark
A repetition of the theme of a desolate and obscure state.
The faintest light in a broken heart
The feeblest light within a shattered heart.
