Cool as a Fire Lyrics

Wasted the morning again
The world at the window is dead
The look in your eye says you don't love me anymore
Cool as a fire
I'm alive I'm alive I know
But now that I found you I don't have a choice
With or without you I don't have a choice

When nobody's watching I'm coiled in question
Hiding the signs
Because weakness wins if weakness shows
Cool as a fire

I'm alive I'm alive I know
But now that I found you I don't have a choice
With or without you I don't have a choice
Now that I found you I don't have a choice
With or without you I don't have a choice

Gone with the weather
Nothing ever lasts forever
Gone with the weather
Nothing ever lasts forever
Gone with the weather
Nothing ever lasts forever
Gone with the weather
Nothing ever lasts forever

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.

Terribly sad. Her cold as ice vocals demonstrate the despair of feeling trapped by what seems like love.
