Cold Fire
Cold Fire: Embracing the Flames of Misunderstood Souls
Lyrics
They called me, Cold Fire
They gave me the nickname "Cold Fire."
They said my gaze was like a burning flame
Others described my intense gaze as a burning flame that has a cooling effect when touched.
That cooled you to the touch
My demeanor may seem cold or distant despite the outward appearance of intensity.
They said, You steer clear now
People warned to stay away from me due to my seemingly unkind or harsh nature.
From the man with the brackish heart
Referring to someone with a bitter or unpleasant character.
He'll fool you with a silver tongue, and then tear you apart
Cautioning against trusting someone who speaks persuasively but may cause harm.
Sometimes I wonder where people get these thoughts
Expressing curiosity about the origins of negative perceptions and judgments.
Must be easy to blame somebody so young
Reflecting on the ease with which people blame someone young for their actions.
'Til I look in the mirror and see what I've become
Realizing one's own reflection in the mirror and acknowledging personal faults or changes.
So go ahead and call me what you want
Encouraging others to label or criticize as they wish.
Call me Cold Fire
Embracing the nickname "Cold Fire."
Call me the devil's right hand
Accepting a comparison to the metaphorical "devil's right hand," suggesting a sinister or influential nature.
And if you really need to
Open to being called an evil man.
Call me an evil man
Acknowledging the possibility of being perceived as malevolent.
Broken windows, broken bones
Listing various forms of brokenness, possibly metaphorical representations of pain and suffering.
Broken hearts, and broken homes
Highlighting the pervasive nature of brokenness in hearts and homes.
Out of context like a game of telephone
Reference to misunderstood situations, where information is distorted as in a game of telephone.
From the ones who say they know
Referring to those who claim to understand but may misinterpret.
I never meant to cause any fear
Expressing remorse for unintentionally causing fear or distress.
Through the fire in my eyes
Suggesting that the perceived fire in the eyes is not intended to cause harm.
That flame they say
Addressing the conflicting nature of a flame fueled by the supposed coldness in the heart.
Was fueled by the ice in my heart
Exploring the paradoxical relationship between fire and ice within oneself.
But most people hate what they don't understand
Commenting on the tendency of people to dislike or fear what they don't comprehend.
Call me Cold Fire
