(Verse 1)
I’m checking the calendar, the date says mid-July
But there’s a frost on the window that I can’t quite explain why
The neighbors are out in the sun, chasing the golden light
But I’m pulling the blankets up, shivering through the night
The thermometer’s climbing, the world is a burning gold
But ever since you walked away, my blood has turned to cold.
(Pre-Chorus)
They say the seasons change, that the earth begins to heal
But they don’t know the weight of the iron that I feel.
(Chorus)
It’s like a sudden winter in the middle of June
A silent, frozen garden under a pale, white moon
The roses are dying in the heat of the day
Because the heart of the summer just withered away
I’m watching the snow fall where the lilies used to bloom
Trapped in a season of silence, in a freezing room
How did the world stay so bright and so blue
While I’m stuck in a winter... a winter without you?
(Verse 2)
I walk through the park and I see the lovers in the grass
While I’m wrapped in a coat, waiting for the storm to pass
Your side of the bed is a glacier, a mountain of white
And I’m losing the sun, losing the will to fight
There’s a blizzard in my chest, a gale in every breath
Loving you was life, but losing you feels like a little death.
(Bridge)
I’m waiting for the thaw, for the ice to start to break
But the more I try to breathe, the more my spirit starts to ache
Is it ever gonna melt? Is the sun ever coming back?
Or am I just a silhouette on a frozen, lonely track?
(Chorus)
It’s like a sudden winter in the middle of June
A silent, frozen garden under a pale, white moon
The roses are dying in the heat of the day
Because the heart of the summer just withered away
I’m watching the snow fall where the lilies used to bloom
Trapped in a season of silence, in a freezing room
How did the world stay so bright and so blue
While I’m stuck in a winter... a winter without you?
(Outro)
The ice is getting thicker...
The sun is just a ghost.
The thing that I loved...
Is the thing I miss the most.
June is burning... but I’m turning to stone.
It’s a long, cold summer... all alone.
