Immer Kalt Lyrics in English by AYLIVA

Mitternacht translates to "midnight". While seemingly simple, it's a highly evocative word in this song, setting a somber and isolated tone.

The artist sings, "Weil man mich nur sieht bei Mitternacht" (Because one only sees me at midnight) and "ihr schläft bei Mitternacht" (you sleep at midnight). This contrast highlights her feeling of being awake and alone in her struggles while others are oblivious, making it a powerful symbol of her solitude and the hidden nature of her pain.

In "Immer Kalt," which translates to "Always Cold," AYLIVA paints a vivid picture of a late-night drive fueled by loneliness and a powerful realization. The song's atmosphere is set by the cold night air and moonlight, a time when the singer feels most visible while everyone else is asleep. This isn't just about being awake late; it's a metaphor for feeling isolated and seeing things clearly when others are oblivious. She sings about realizing—too late—who her true friends are, accusing them of being selfish and only loving themselves.

The central theme is a feeling of emotional coldness, both from others and as a defense mechanism for herself. AYLIVA reflects on past hurts, mentioning being naive at fifteen and still facing the "same stress" six years later. She references watching TV shows like "Pretty Little Liars" with white wine, suggesting a backdrop of drama and insincere friendships. Ultimately, the song is a declaration of independence. A late-night message arrives "viel zu spät" (far too late), and instead of dwelling on it, she finds freedom in driving alone, choosing her own company over the coldness of others. It's a powerful anthem about self-respect and leaving behind relationships that don't serve you.
