    Lyrics
    Did you ever want it?
    Did you want it bad?
    Ohhh, my
    It tears me apart
    Did you ever fight it?
    All of the pain
    So much pride
    Running through my veins
    Bleeding, I'm bleeding
    My cold little heart
    Oh I, I can't stand myself
    And I know
    In my heart, in this cold heart
    I can live or I can die
    I believe if I just try
    You believe in you and I
    In you and I
    In you and I
    In you and I
    Did you ever notice
    I've been ashamed
    All my life
    I've been playing games
    We can try and hide it
    It's all the same
    I've been losing you
    One day at a time
    Bleeding, I'm bleeding
    My cold little heart
    Oh I, I can't stand myself
    And I know
    In my heart, in this cold heart
    I can live or I can die
    I believe if I just try
    You believe in you and I
    In my heart, in this cold heart
    I can live or I can die
    I believe if I just try
    You believe in you and I
    In you and I
    In you and I
    In you and I
    In you and I
    In you and I
    In you and I
    In you and I
    Maybe this time I can be strong
    But since I know who I am
    I'm probably wrong
    Maybe this time I can go far
    But thinking about where I've been
    Ain't helping me start

    I smoked some joints with my wife and then we laid down in bed to go to sleep. Lights off and we put earphones and this song came up. All i remember that i was taken to another dimension with an Afterlife vibe. I certainly couldn't feel my body and it somehow felt like I'm in contact with dear friends and relatives who passed away during my lifetime. My wife said that night she was trying to grab my arm, but it felt very cold to her and i wasn't reacting to any kind of touch, she also stated that i was smiling real wide while asleep. Amazing experience

My heartbreak of loss, you have just helped me release, as my tears flow down my face l am so touched by your music. l have been holding back for so long, a pain that will never go away, only strengthen all my love and thoughts of our most wonderful life we shared together for so long… My dog Skyler and l are alone now… l lost my husband, Cody our 17 year old healer mix, Casey our 18.5 year dog, my cat Cali who was killed the week he died, and her brother to cancer all in this short period of time… Heartbreak only makes us stronger to help us manage our journeys throughout the rest of our life ! 💔🐾❤️ You become more forgiving, tolerant and loving of so many others. LIFE IS TO SHORT … Forgive, move forward and Love everyone !

I admire the beautiful sincere words you have written for your husband, you can tell you truly had met and embraced immortal Love through and wkth him. For me, I am thinking of the many miscarriages my wife and I suffered. The hopes of a life and of someone you will never meet. This song leaves me stern and pensive, the thoughts and emotions swim through me. I think we all meet the deepest love and loss emotions thanks to this song..all the best Melanie, may music and thinking of your husband keep your big heart warm, not cold or little. Vito

    The first time I listened to this song was September 17, 2018. It was a bad time for me. I remember sitting on a makeshift roof, having climbed it with so much difficulty, at 4 in the morning. I listened to this song on loop till the sun came out. That was the first time I ever wrote and here's the poem I wrote that day:
    Cold Little Heart
    You win.
    Amidst the tyranny of my agony, I realize...
    My heart succumbs finally,
    To my guilt, or to your absence?
    Burdened by something,
    Is it your virtue or my sins?
    Can see myself fading,
    Is it the growing dark or the shimmering light?
    I feel myself sinking,
    Is it a dream, or just the starry night?
    Want to ask you once,
    Should l stand again or give up the fight?
    Bewildered,I run searching around,
    Am I blind or is there no one in sight?
    Rush to me, strap me in your trap too tight,
    This cold little heart may bleed yet again,
    Another day, Another plight.
    This song will haunt me forever and I'll happily let it.

If you're not recognising that you have no place advising anyone about anything to do with music. No thanks to your 'prog-rock' wankery anyway, can't stand any of those bands. No one is saying they "invented the genre", but Floyd were in a class of their own.

    I am not so young anymore but still a young hippie by heart in an old packaging. I was 18 years at the Rotterdam Pop Festival in 1969 with Pink Floyd, Jefferson Airplane, Canned Heat, The Byrds etc. I love this pure and honest piece, very skillful with a lot of soul. Reminded me of days long gone. Brilliant.

    Every once in a great while a song will come along that makes my soul tingle with emotion and I have to stop everything and just listen to. Cold Little Heart is one of those songs. Thank you so much for this.

    Beautiful old school voice. We need more black singers like this to raise the overall quality in music. You know, like in the 60's and 70's.

      Nice racist touch Jackie. Ignorance is a bliss. Let music be the one true colorful language of love with no distinction between colors.

      @Insert name here: Please look up ‘st Paul and the broken bones’ or the ‘Teskey brothers’ and you will understand that labeling this type of music to black is just a bit narrow minded. But let’s focus on good music and enjoy.

      Jackie, I had the same feeling sounds like Pink Floyd, Peter Tosh and The Fifth Dimension all together.

    I'll never get over Big Little Lies and how well this song fit in the intro.

    Crackening in an bones inside of yourself tells all. Whoever. Sing isn't all moments of calmness loved maybe loves to. Laughing laughter. It's alright. No matter where itself comes from kindness again
