The Cold Lyrics

i've been outside for too long now, i've seen the seasons come and go. could be today may be the day, tomorrow comes and i'll stay the same. don't know my place,never thought it'd be this way. can't change my face, never thought i'd see this change. too many times i've passed these doors, i've seen them open just to close. now i'm searching for some new key. locked up, locked out it comes down on me. don't know my place,never thought it'd be this way. can't change my face, never thought i'd see this change. i've come to see this change, i've come to stay the same i'll stay until i'm old, unwind, release, unfold. i've come to stay the same, i'll stay until i'm old i don't want to be cold.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

there are a lotta references to cold weather in small brown bike songs(holiday "as far as this winter goes, we dont feel the deep snow, but its cold wherever i go, it feels cold wherever i go") but theyre all metaphorical. in my eyes this song is about wanting to take control of your life but not being able to. also, the original version of this song was much better than the one on our own wars
