Cold Bed
Embers of Reflection: Unveiling Stories in Cold Bed
Lyrics
The cold tonight seems more anxious to talk
The cold tonight symbolizes a silent desire to communicate.
Than he has seemed in nights before
The cold's behavior is more expressive than usual.
Skinless face and yellow heart, he
Describing the cold with a faceless and heartless persona.
Hesitates and I wait
The cold hesitates, creating anticipation.
All my stories are about the same things
The narrator's stories revolve around recurring themes.
I find so many beds for them
Finding beds or places for the stories to unfold.
I find this package of tiny lamps
Discovery of a set of small lamps, possibly metaphorical.
And it makes a firey ring
The lamps create a fiery ring, suggesting intense experiences.
Right now is the reason I carry this jewel
The present moment justifies carrying a symbolic jewel.
Everywhere round my neck
The jewel is worn around the neck as a constant presence.
I keep it close but still outside
Keeping the jewel close but still somewhat distant.
This is my explanation
The narrator provides an explanation for their actions.
All my stories are about the same things
Reiteration that all stories revolve around similar themes.
I find so many beds for them
Continuing to find places for recurring stories.
I find this package of tiny lamps
Discovery of another set of small lamps.
And it makes a firey ring
Similar to line 15, creating an intense and fiery experience.
A box of love and sex and reflection
A box symbolizing love, sex, and self-reflection.
Its got my face and hands
The box contains the narrator's face and hands.
The lonely is yellow and old
The feeling of loneliness is depicted as yellow and aged.
Watch the cold around my bed
Observing the cold around the narrator's bed.
All my stories are about the same things
Reiteration that the narrator's stories share common themes.
I find so many beds for them
Continuing to find suitable places for recurring stories.
I find this package of tiny lamps
Encountering another set of small lamps.
And it makes a firey ring
Similar to line 15 and 31, creating a vivid and fiery experience.
