too human for this place (desert rock sessions v1)
(c) all lyrics by Fatih L.C. People move through this world like nothing ever breaks their stride. Steel eyes, straight lines, every heartbeat locked in tight. I used to feel the contrast like a warning under skin — too warm for rooms built colder than the places I’d been in. I swore I’d keep my warmth, swore nothing here could change it — but frost rewrites your edges if you stand inside long enough. I’m too human for this place, but the frost keeps moving in. Up the spine then down again, ’til it settles in my skin. I used to burn on purpose, now the embers barely glow — up the spine then down again, turning warm things into snow. I watch them move like storms, loud, fast, no hesitation. Every path a straight strike, every step a calculation. And in their wake I feel it, a shift inside my chest — not breaking, not defeated, just colder than the rest. I learned their pace without meaning to, their distance without choice — silence spreads like winter when you dampen down your voice. I’m too human for this place, but the frost keeps moving in. Up the spine then down again, ’til it settles in my skin. I used to burn on purpose, now the embers barely glow — up the spine then down again, turning warm things into snow. There was a time I glowed and never questioned it. Now I feel the shift in moments when I can’t tell the difference between the cold around me and the cold I’ve started carrying. I’m too human for this place, but I’ve learned how cold begins. Up the spine then down again, creeping slow beneath the skin. Thought my warmth was unbreakable, but even fire thins in wind — up the spine then down again, and I’m not what I’ve been.
