I was thinking about my older brother, who is not alive, when I originally wrote this, but at the same time I was thinking about someone who might have lost their beloved for whatever reason and is feeling left alone by everyone else around her. Interpret it however you wish. On a cold midwinter’s night Without my love by my side I travel through the darkness All my pain seeps from my bones I’m in this house but not at home Still I know I’m all alone, in this They don’t know me Like you know my heart They don’t see They can’t love me Like you loved my heart They ripped me apart On a cold midwinter’s night Without my love by my side I can’t see the path at my feet It’s so cold in this cruel world I feel like a little girl Standing in the spotlight They don’t know me Like you know my heart They don’t see They can’t love me Like you loved my heart They ripped me apart It seems so awkward Talking to this stone But I need you to know This is the only place, I don’t feel alone They don’t know me Like you know my heart They don’t see They can’t love me Like you loved my heart They ripped me apart They don’t see me Like a porcelain doll So fragile You’re the only one that ever knew So I’m blaming on you |
