This song is about one girls struggle with mental health at
University whilst sharing a house with other students
who can’t understand why she isn’t enjoying herself and
partying like they are.
It’s about how we can feel alienated from the good time
that others seem to be having.
lyrics
We all walked through the green door
of this tiny terraced house
us three together
no more school days for us now
we are freshers
so let’s party on
Sing it loud, raise it high,
throw our clothes on the floor,
no more rules in our life, and
We dragged ourselves to lectures
and came home just after One
Found you sitting, on your own
in the front room, not even dressed yet
I said “we’re the lazy ones”
Sing it loud raise it high
throw our clothes, on the floor, no more rules
in our life, but you said I’m
Cold, Cold
All we ever hear you say
Cold, Cold
So we just left you there
We ordered pizza, and two massive boxes
came but you ate nothing
so I joked that’s why your
Cold, Cold
All we ever hear you say
Cold, Cold all we ever hear you say
You don’t go to parties,
you wont leave that floor
and you’re on a go slow
to every invite you say I can’t
I’m just too cold,
Cold, Cold
All we ever hear you say
Cold, Cold
So we just left you there
You saw the doctor, when you started
shouting out, talking to windows
long nights sitting there for hours
we would whisper
what’s she doing now?
Sing it loud, raise it high,
throw our clothes
on the floor no more rules in our life
Cold, Cold
All we ever hear you say
Cold, Cold
So we just left you there
Cold, Cold
All we ever hear you say
Cold, Cold
Sorry we just left you there so cold
