Ice Queen Lyrics
Artist(Band):Within Temptation
Review The Song (31)Print the Lyrics
When leaves have fallen and skies turned to grey
The night keeps on closing in on the day
A nightingale sings his song of farewell
You'd better hide from her freezing hell

On cold wings she's coming
You'd better keep moving
For warmth, you'll be longing
Any day
Come on, just feel it?
Don't you see it?
You'd better believe

When she embraces
Your heart turns to stone
She comes at night when you're all alone
And when she whispers
Your blood shall run cold
You'd better hide before she finds you

Whenever she hears raging
She takes a life away
Haven't you seen
Haven't you seen
The ruins of her world

Whenever she hears raging
She takes a life away
Haven't you seen
Haven't you seen
The ruins of her world

She covers the Earth with a breathtaking cloak
The sun awakes and melts it away
The world now opens its eyes and sees
The dawning of a new day

On cold wings she's coming
You'd better keep moving
For warmth, you'll be longing
Any day
Come on you feel it
Don't you see it
You'd better believe

Whenever she hears raging
She takes life away
Haven't you seen
Haven't you seen
The ruins of her world

Whenever she hears raging
She takes life away
Haven't you seen
Haven't you seen
The ruins of her world

Review about Ice Queen

lyrics correction | Reviewer: Mat | 8/14/09

I 'd like to correct some mistakes in this version of the lyrics.

1. The songs says "Whenever she IS raging", not Whenever she HEARS raging.
2. The song says "Haven't you seen the ruin of OUR world", not Haven't you seen the ruins of HER world"

Just a couple corrections...Other than that it's a great song...one of many great songs by Within Temptation.



All that meets the eye | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/19/09

I personally think that the charater of the 'Ice Queen' has good intensions, but hasnt found the way to express them in a more positive light. She dosent like war, and in the lyrics,
"Whenever she hears raging she takes a life away havent you seen havent you seen the ruins of her world"
She has had her own world destroyed by war, and seeks to end it. She kills those who start them, but in the process takes life as well.
All of Within Temtation's songs have had a personal meaning to me, and this one is no diffrent, if not more so.



ICE QUEEN | Reviewer: Julius | 7/4/09

so... whatever the enviroment between the lyric, the music and the video makes me feel some nostagic feeling.... the effect of the video; the representation of the differents stages of the nature like the fire, and other natural forces reinforces the relation of the ICE QUEEN with the winter... also is pretty emotonal compare the winter with some mental stage like winter depression or whatever.... so this is a pretty good song and really really emotional with a relative but unified meaning



Flawless Ice | Reviewer: The Poet | 6/18/09

I think this song is flawless. Ice Queen is truly magnificent and almost foreshadowing. It's chilling and mysterious, a difficult combination to create in a song. When I look for the meaning of a song, I am not looking for the literal or obvious meaning. I prefer to search deeper.

When I heard this song, I thought of a spirit who has for so long lived in the coldest, darkest ice. Her castle is just an icey ruin of olden times. A broken, lost memory killed by war.
"When she hears raging, she takes life away," She destroys the fighting because of the pain it causes her. Since I feel our world has become so chaotic, the Ice Queen returns to destroy the very reason for it. Then sun/peace comes and melts her stone heart away. She slips back into the ice and waits, for an eternity if she has to, she waits to ruin the world with the cold. Eternal winter and night...



A Title For My Review? :) | Reviewer: Hula | 5/21/09

I love this song. In my opinion I think it's talking about all those disasters that have to do with winter, like avalanches and stuff. Like for example:

"On cold wings she's coming
You better keep moving
For warmth, you'll be longing
Any day."

I think this means the 'ice queen' creates winter 'you' want Spring to come.

So I think the 'ice queen' is basicly winter itself. One last thing:

"Whenever she is raging
She takes all life away
Haven't you seen?
Haven't you seen?
The ruins of our world?"

This I believe means when people die during winter or very cold places. It is extremely sad when someone dies in an avalanche or freezes to death. Well, that's my opinion. Bye ~Hula



ice queen | Reviewer: sarim | 4/10/09

it's amazing to see the different meanings this song holds.I will discuss one here.I think that here the queen is the death, notice the phrase "your hearts turn to stone".there is an air of constant presence of the death factor in the song.the idea is that we should look at our deeds and measure the extent to which they effect the people around us so that we don't infuriate the queen and escape its fury for as long as we can!



^.^ | Reviewer: Anonymous | 1/13/09

This song rox. I have to agree, it does seem to refer to evil in general. It sort of reminds me of Azula from Avatar:The Last Airbender. No wonder there's so many videos on youtube referring to her as an "ice queen".



Meaning of the song (-^-^-) | Reviewer: Anonymous | 1/8/09

Here is what Wikipedia says, so you decide what you think:

The "Ice Queen" of the song is a somewhat sociopathic-sounding woman who is never mentioned by name and referred to only as "She". (She's coming). This woman is obviously highly dangerous given the foreboding tone of the song and the lyrics ("You better keep moving"). It also says "When she rages she takes life away" implying that the woman whom the song is about is guilty of murder. Given the fantastical quality of the video it is possible that the song is pure science-fiction and the woman is merely a villainess of the Ice Queen archetype. Some fans of the song have drawn comparisons between the Ice Queen and the White Witch Jadis from The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe and speculated that they may be the same character.

The song says that the Ice Queen comes "When leaves have fallen and skies turned to grey" and "the night keeps closing in on the day", suggesting that she may be the personification of winter. This impression is further enhanced by the song's proclamation of "The sun awakes and melts it away, the world now opens its eyes and sees the dawning of a new day."

The song also makes reference to "the ruins of our world" suggesting that the Ice Queen is a metaphor for the wars and other manifestations of evil that damage the world. The song also portrays the Ice Queen as a figure of temptation so she, like Jadis, may in fact be a satanic character.




Ice queen | Reviewer: Anonymous | 12/18/08

I'll agree with Anonymous and Shawna Lynn it's either Andersen's snow queen either Witch from Narnia. They both were deadly and bad, they both turned into ice (snow queen turn boy's heart into stone, and Witch freezed everyone who stood in her way)



Good song.. | Reviewer: Hey.. | 11/22/08

I dont really think this video is trying to portray the negative sides of war and disease and global warming etc.. i think its trying to speak of the arrival of loneliness and sadness of people when night comes... along with the freezing cold. For me, for some unknown reasons i feel pessimistic whenever night comes.. i dont know why too.
