Gravity Doesn’t Ask

Verse

You say you’re fine, but you don’t look steady,

Coffee’s cold, but your hands still shake.

We’ve been dancing ‘round the truth already,

Like we’re scared of the moves we’d make.

Every silence says a little more,

Than the words we never choose.

I don’t know what we’re waiting for,

But I know what we’d lose.

Pre-chorus

If love’s a line we’re walking blind,

I’ve been leaning your way all night.

Chorus

Gravity doesn’t ask if you’re ready to fall,

It just pulls you close, then it takes it all.

I’ve been holding on like I’m stronger than that,

But gravity doesn’t ask.

You can run, you can fight, you can say it’s the past,

But the heart remembers way too fast.

I’ve been lying to myself in the dark,

But gravity doesn’t ask.

Verse

Your laugh still hits me like it’s nothing,

Like it doesn’t undo my calm.

We talk about leaving like it’s easy,

Like the ground won’t miss our arms.

Every road feels familiar now,

Even the ones that break us apart.

I don’t know where we’re headed,

But I know where you are.

Pre-chorus

If love’s a war we never planned,

I’ve been waving the white flag in my hand.

Chorus

Gravity doesn’t ask if you’re ready to fall,

It just pulls you close, then it takes it all.

I’ve been holding on like I’m stronger than that,

But gravity doesn’t ask.

You can run, you can fight, you can say it’s the past,

But the heart remembers way too fast.

I’ve been lying to myself in the dark,

But gravity doesn’t ask.

Bridge

Maybe we’re not broken, just bent,

Like a truth we don’t want to admit.

If letting go is the bravest thing,

Why does it feel like this?

Chorus

Gravity doesn’t ask, it just knows,

Every secret you never showed.

I’ve been standing still on the edge of the past,

But gravity doesn’t ask.

If love’s a fall I can’t outrun,

I’d rather fall than feel nothing at all.

I’ve been lying to myself from the start,

But gravity doesn’t ask.

Outro

No, gravity doesn’t ask.
