PERIMETER lyrics

[Verse 1]
You walk like a secret I could break
So I did, just for heaven’s sake
I traced your lines like city maps
Every inch, every breath you had
Your Converse shoes, that crooked smile
You didn’t know I’d stay a while
Glasses fogged, hair dyed gold
Baggy jeans and a shirt half torn

[Chorus]
I studied the perimeter, baby
Every scar, every maybe
Got close enough to taste the risk
I want the mess, not just the kiss
You leaned in, it got sensitive
I held on like it was instinctive
I don’t just love you, I designed
The map to your reckless mind

[Verse 2]
Your hoodie smelled like after-hours
Sweat and static, midnight power
Even your silence feels like art
That little crack inside your heart
[Pre-Chorus]
I watched you flick your pen mid-thought
Your sentences, the wars I fought
Your laugh, your bite, your twisted lore
I needed you, and then I wanted more

[Chorus]
I studied the perimeter, baby
Every scar, every maybe
Got close enough to taste the risk
I want the mess, not just the kiss
You leaned in, it got sensitive
I held on like it was instinctive
I don’t just love you, I designed
The map to your reckless mind

[Bridge]
We share a hug like it’s armor
Like it’s the last light after drama
Your hands know mine like old terrain
Even your chaos, I’d explain

[Chorus]
I studied the perimeter, baby
Every scar, every maybe
I built a compass with your name
And still, I’d chase you all the same
You leaned in, it got sensitive
I gave you everything I lived
You’re not just someone, I aligned
My soul to your reckless mind
