[Verse 1]
Cold air in my lungs
April still feels like last December
Cherry buds on the fence
I don’t bloom fast, I remember
Black boots in the green
Mud on my laces, I like it
Birds sing a sweet little hymn
I twist it, rewrite it
[Pre-Chorus]
They think sun means soft
They think petals mean kind
But I’ve been cutting through the thaw
With a razor in my mind
[Chorus]
I’m the spring you can’t touch
Frost on a bright new morning
All this light on my face
But the ground under me is storming
Watch me rise, rise, rise
Out the dirt like I own this sky
You can feel me in your blood
But you’ll never get me in your hands tonight (hey!)
[Verse 2]
New coat, same guard up
Laugh in the smoke by the corner
Warm rain on my neck
Still run hot like a warning
You chase with your open palms
I slip right past your reach
You want flowers in your fist
I want thunder in my teeth
[Pre-Chorus]
You see shine, see shade
You don’t see what it cost
Every petal on my skin
Grew up cutting through the frost
[Chorus]
I’m the spring you can’t touch
Frost on a bright new morning
All this light on my face
But the ground under me is storming
Watch me rise, rise, rise
Out the dirt like I own this sky
You can feel me in your blood
But you’ll never get me in your hands tonight
[Bridge]
[Beat drops, bass deeper, filtered synths pulsing]
New day, same edge
I don’t bend, I don’t beg (oh yeah)
If you step in my field
Know I bloom on a knife’s edge
New day, same edge
See me dancing through the flood
You can taste me in the air
But you’ll never drag me through the mud
[Chorus]
I’m the spring you can’t touch
Frost on a bright new morning
All this light on my face
But the ground under me is storming
Watch me rise, rise, rise
Out the dirt like I own this sky
You can feel me in your blood
But you’ll never get me in your hands tonight
