What's 'Deep Down Rebel' about?

Deep Down Rebel song meanings

Cold
This is about seeing someone I was with once, but now wouldn't look me 'in the eye'. Essentially it's for anyone who's known love but then become strangers with that person.

Easy
This song is about how 'easy' it is for me to love and commit, and how 'easy' it should be to with the person you love.

Deep Down Rebel
This is about my frustration about not being able to do the things I want in life. Especially in terms of a day job and songwriting but also life in general too.

Girl Like Me
This was written in frustration of some people not acknowleging me as a singer/songwriter yet. That being who I am and not just a 'hobby'. But I wrote for anyone who is seen in a different way to how they'd like 'to be seen'.

Deep Down Rebel EP has a similar theme to Unconventional Girl in that I will always aim to do what I want and not be quiet about it :) LJ x

Cold lyrics

Cold (from 'Deep Down Rebel')

I'm no stranger to the cold

How could I be?

You turned my tears to snow

And our story's old

A frozen fairytale

Of how you left me long ago.

And when you see me now

You keep your head down.

You don't look me in the eye

The boy who never left my side

Until you said goodbye

I feel a chill inside

And you won't say hello

The boy who said he'd never go

Now who doesn't want to know

It feels so cold

When you walk right through me.

We knew a warmer time

You held me up

You kept me from the ice

Then you became

Something unbreakable

However hard I tried.

And when you see me now

You keep your head down.

You don't look me in the eye

The boy who never left my side

Until you said goodbye

I feel a chill inside

And you won't say hello

The boy who said he'd never go

Now who doesn't want to know

It feels so cold

When you walk right through me.

We were so close before we were strangers

Maybe nothing, maybe everything changes.

You don't look me in the eye

The boy who never left my side

Until you said goodbye

I feel a chill inside

And you won't say hello

The boy who said he'd never go

Now who doesn't want to know

It feels so cold

When you walk right through me.
