Verse 1]
You don’t talk, I don’t ask,
We just sit in silence, watch the moments pass,
Your eyes say something’s wrong,
But your pride too strong, you keep holding on.
We used to burn like summer heat,
Now we sleep on different sides of the sheet,
Love letters turned to battle plans,
Every word feel like contraband.
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
We fight with quiet eyes,
We love, but we don’t try,
We touch, but it don’t heal no more,
It’s a cold war.
⸻
[Chorus]
It’s the cold war, baby,
No bombs, just walls between us lately,
Frozen hearts, no one’s waving white flags,
We both too proud to take it back.
Yeah, it’s the cold war, baby,
I miss the fire we had, gone crazy,
Two soldiers in love, now strangers in pain,
Still fighting but it don’t feel the same.
⸻
[Verse 2]
You scroll through your phone, I stare at the ceiling,
We don’t say a word, but I feel what you feeling,
Every kiss taste like goodbye,
Every hug just a truce for the night.
You said forever, I said “me too,”
But forever turned cold, and I froze with you,
We built a love with no peace accord,
Now we both losing this quiet war.
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
We fight with quiet eyes,
We love, but we don’t try,
We touch, but it don’t heal no more,
It’s a cold war.
⸻
[Chorus]
It’s the cold war, baby,
No bombs, just walls between us lately,
Frozen hearts, no one’s waving white flags,
We both too proud to take it back.
Yeah, it’s the cold war, baby,
I miss the fire we had, gone crazy,
Two soldiers in love, now strangers in pain,
Still fighting but it don’t feel the same.
⸻
[Bridge]
Maybe love ain’t supposed to burn forever,
Maybe peace means walking away together,
But I still keep my armor by the door,
‘Cause I don’t know how to love you no more.
⸻
[Final Chorus]
It’s the cold war, baby,
No bombs, just silence breaking lately,
Frozen hearts, we lost what we were,
Now we ghosts of what we preferred.
Yeah, it’s the cold war, baby,
We fought too long, now the wounds too heavy,
Two souls that forgot what they fought for —
Stuck in love’s cold war.
