[Verse 1]
You move through my feed like a ghost
Little frames that you give to the world
I trace every angle you show
Like I’m learning the map of your bones
I know where you drink after work
Who laughs at your jokes
What you wear
Every mark on your skin that you’ve shown
Feels like something you left in my care
[Chorus]
You don't see the velvet chains
Already wrapped around your veins
Every road you try to take
Leads you right back into my cage
You don't feel the velvet chains
But you breathe in the air I make
Every choice you think is yours
Baby
I already wrote the way
[Verse 2]
That ink on your wrist
I zoom in
Read the lines like a secret I own
I imagine my hands on your throat
Thumb resting right under that stroke
You post that you're "strong on your own"
I smile while I watch where you go
Step for step
I’m a shadow that grips
You
Walking inside of my hold
[Pre-Chorus]
You leave little clues
I take them
I twist them
You think it's a view
It's just the one I’ve given
You think you could choose
But I’ve already written
Every door
Every room
Where you’ll learn how to listen
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
I like you defiant
Muscles tight when you fight it
Every "stop" is a siren
Pulling me in
Pulling you quiet
You’ll forget how you got here
Only know that you fit here
My hands
Your skin
Our small world
Shrinking down till I’m all you can hear
[Chorus]
