Frontman Paul McCoy said of the track:
“‘World So Cold’ is a song I wrote about my view of the world. I wrote this song almost 20 years ago about how messed up the world seemed to me. I can honestly say that I don’t feel like it’s gotten any better over the last 20 years. I remember sitting in the lounge of the music studio messing around with an acoustic guitar while the TV was on in the background. I saw a news story about another person on a shooting rampage, and in that moment, I just started singing the melody that became ‘World So Cold’. I realized that all humans can become a byproduct of their environments. The song is about believing in hope in hopeless times.”
Lyric Noel adds:
“I was incredibly honored that out of all the singers out there, they chose me to be part of the re-release of ‘World So Cold’. It’s such a powerful song that already carries so much emotion and history, so getting the chance to lend my voice to it meant a lot to me. Filming the music video was an amazing experience, and the visuals really bring the story and atmosphere of the song to life in a beautiful way. Being part of this new chapter of ‘World So Cold’ alongside 12 Stones is something I’m truly grateful for.”
