Warm Night, Cold Inside [AIU Spring Festival]

[Intro] The spring night is warm And my mind won’t rest Did I read too much Between the lines... Or not enough? [Verse 1] May air drifting through the window screen Warm outside, cold in my mouth Laughter somewhere down the street Like a life I missed somehow Never thought I’d be this age Still trying to figure it out I keep waiting for something to break But it’s only breaking now [Pre-Chorus] I keep telling myself: “Your time will come...” Like maybe if I say it I’ll believe it some But spring keeps moving And I’m still numb [Chorus] Warm damn night Cold inside May is blooming But I’m barely alive Windows open Music and laughter everywhere Feels like life is happening Everywhere else but here Warm damn night Cold inside [Verse 2] Did I hold on Till the pages went thin Stayed too long When the light went dim Too scared to move Too scared to lose Watching life happen Instead of choosing Every year I tell myself “This one won’t end the same” But spring keeps touching everything Except the parts that ache [Pre-Chorus] I keep telling myself: “Your time will come...” Like maybe if I say it I’ll believe it some But spring keeps moving And I’m still numb [Chorus] Warm damn night Cold inside May is blooming But I’m barely alive Windows open Music and laughter everywhere Feels like life is happening Everywhere else but here Warm damn night Cold inside [Bridge] Was I too scared to make a move Too busy scared of what I’d lose Standing right there And saying nothing Watching moments disappear Did I wait too long To be enough Mistaking fear For being tough Maybe love knocked And I just stood still. [Final Chorus] Warm damn night Cold inside May is blooming But I’m barely alive Windows open Music and laughter everywhere Feels like life is happening Everywhere else but here Warm damn night... Cold inside. [Outro] Was I too closed off... Maybe. Too quiet... Maybe. Too ordinary... I don’t know. Maybe love knocked... Maybe I just... didn’t answer. Warm damn night... Cold inside — of me.
