Underneath Your Cold

(Cold…) (Cold…) You make the warmest rooms feel cold Turn every laugh we had to something old You tried to drain the color from my soul But I’m still burning underneath your cold Streetlights leaking through the window glass 2 a.m., I’m tracing shadows from our past Your jacket’s hanging where you left it last But all your warmth feels years away from that You’re in the way you never meet my eyes In every half-truth wrapped up like a lie You’re here in body but your heart’s outside I feel the temperature drop every time Every time you walk into the room I feel the summer sinking into rain I hear the words but I can’t feel your tone It’s like you’re close and miles from home You make the warmest rooms feel cold Turn every hug into a distant hold You tried to freeze the color in my soul But I’m still burning underneath your cold You make the softest nights feel tense You turn our kindness into self-defense You pull me under but I won’t lose myself I’m still a fire fighting off your cold You’re in the way you leave the bed at night Scrolling in the glow of the hallway light You’re in the smile you only wear outside The one I haven’t seen in a long, long time Our friends keep saying that we look okay But they don’t hear the words we never say We share a roof and still we split in two It’s like the weather changed inside of you Every joke falls flat between your teeth Every touch feels like it’s on repeat You say you’re “fine” but I can feel the freeze I’m not mistaken; this is more than just a breeze You make the warmest rooms feel cold Turn every story that we wrote ice cold You tried to dim the fire in my soul But I keep burning through your heavy cold You paint our brightest plans in grey Turn every sunrise into runaways You pull me under but I won’t break or fold I’m still a fire pushing back your cold Maybe you’re scared to let the daylight in Maybe you’re tired of who we’ve both been But I’m still standing on this frozen ground Calling your name, trying to thaw you out If there’s a spark left hiding in your chest I’ll light a match and give it all my breath But if you choose the winter over us I’ll walk away before I turn to dust (Cold… you’re getting so cold…) (Cold… you’re slipping, I know…) You make the warmest rooms feel cold (cold… cold… co-o-old) Turn every promise into something old (so cold… so cold) You tried to drain the color from my soul (cold in my bones… in my bones…) But I’m still burning underneath your cold (cold… cold… co-o-old) You fill the silence with your empty stare (cold… cold) You’re right beside me like you’re never there (so cold… so cold) You press your winter against my tired bones (no more… no more… so cold) But I’m still rising, I won’t turn to stone (cold… cold… co-o-old) (Cold… you won’t own my flame…) (Cold… I won’t wear your name…) I am the warmth you couldn’t overthrow I am the fire standing in your cold (cold… cold… co-o-old…)
