歌詞

You wear the midnight like a borrowed coat

City lights lean over your throat

You laugh soft, like you’re hiding a flame

I count reasons not to say your name

Your hands shake when the winter bites

As if the world stares too long at what’s right

So you pull the gloves a little too tight

Like beauty needs a place to hide tonight

Not because you owe them nothing

Not because you’re made to run

But some things glow too loudly

When they’re touched by everyone

The gloves say

No one needs to see your perfect hands

They aren’t for keeping warm

They’re for keeping you unclaimed

And the scarf says

No one earns your naked skin

Your neck is not a promise

It’s a secret I’m within

Your shadow swims along the wall

Like it knows things you can’t recall

You fold your words into your sleeve

As if honesty bruises easily

I’ve watched you dress your silence well

Layered lies you never sell

You don’t hide because you’re weak

You hide because you’re hard to keep

Not every treasure wants a window

Not every kiss wants air

Some hearts beat better

When nobody stares

The gloves say

No one needs to hold your truth

Your fingers write their own religion

They don’t answer to the youth

And the scarf says

No one reads you all at once

Your beauty isn’t lonely

It’s just never in a rush

If love is exposure

Then let me be shade

If touch is a currency

I’ll never trade

I don’t want to own you

Or tear you apart

I just want to stand guard

At the edge of your heart

So keep the gloves on

Till the world learns how to look

Keep the scarf tied

Till they learn how to listen

I don’t need your skin

I don’t need it to show

If you choose me

You’ll let me know

Some things stay beautiful

Because they’re covered

Some loves survive

Because they’re slow
