Gesture

Wake up with me sleeping silent

Let it sink under you skin

Look at me like it’s a lesson

on how to take it all in

Like I’m romanticizing every gestureLove I thought you knew me better

as I string together every letter

I’m not one to make love

but I’m down to give a fuck

I’m not one to make love

and I’m always giving up

I’ll stay frozen under your eyes

Stay hidden under disguise

Can’t remember what it feels like

to be surprised

Lay awake for a while

Wake up with me still and silent

wishing I was somewhere else

Wonder why I always capsize

and internalize each moment

as it plays out

I’m not romanticizing every gestureLove I thought you knew me better

as I string together every letter

I’m not one to make love

but I’m down to give a fuck

I’m not one to make love

and I’m always giving up

I’ll stay frozen under your eyes

Stay hidden under disguise

Can’t remember what it feels like

to be surprised

Lay awake for a while

I spend my nights

reviewing captured constellations

In the morning I lie

reliving tiny revelations

fixated and shameless

I’m not one to make love

but I’m down to give a fuck

I’m not one to make love

and I’m always giving up

I’ll stay frozen under your eyes

Stay hidden under disguise

Can’t remember what it feels like

to be surprised

Lay awake for a while
