Frozen in July

The first step felt like déjà vu,

A broken road, and I knew it too,

Your shadow lingered in the dawn,

And every breath felt overdrawn.

I built my world around your eyes,

But seasons changed, and love disguised,

You left me frozen in July,

While summer burned through every lie.

If only I could hate you now,

Maybe the cold would figure out,

But winter's holding on to me,

Since you left, time's lost at sea.

How do I move when the world still spins for you?

Every step back pulls me deeper into blue,

I’d rather feel the sting of hate than love that’s gone,

The more I try to let you go, the more you haunt.

One step closer to the end,

But memories never bend,

I’m stuck between the dark and light,

A shadow in the endless night.

I wish I knew how to forget,

Erase the lines where love was set,

Your name still whispers through the rain,

Like echoes tangled in my veins.

I told myself it's just a phase,

But even dawn can't heal this haze,

I thought the frost would melt with time,

But every thaw still tastes like crime.

If only I could hate you now,

Maybe the cold would figure out,

But winter's holding on to me,

Since you left, time's lost at sea.

How do I move when the world still spins for you?

Every step back pulls me deeper into blue,

I’d rather feel the sting of hate than love that’s gone,

The more I try to let you go, the more you haunt.

One step closer to the end,

But memories never bend,

I’m stuck between the dark and light,

A shadow in the endless night.

If I could call you just to ask,

What lies beyond this shattered glass,

Would you still hold me in your mind,

Or am I dust you left behind?

How do I move when the world still spins for you?

Every step back pulls me deeper into blue,

I’d rather feel the sting of hate than love that’s gone,

The more I try to let you go, the more you haunt.

One step closer to the end,

But memories never bend,

I’m stuck between the dark and light,

A shadow in the endless night.

I’m tracing lines where you once stood,

The silence speaks more than it should,

The winter clings, it won’t let go,

But I’m still here, I need to know.
