Gemini
Knox Fortune Lyrics

I get lost when I'm in your space
Being around you distracts me and takes me away from reality.

Hold my breath when I'm in your embrace
I become so mesmerized by you that I forget to breathe.

Hold my breath 'til I'm red in the face
I try to hold my breath as long as I can while I'm holding you tightly, leaving me breathless and red-faced.

Holding my breath 'til you're making me faint
Your embrace is so powerful and intoxicating that I feel like I might pass out from holding my breath.

I'm in love with my old ways
I'm attached to my old habits and behaviors, even if they're not good for me.

Things I do that I don't plan to change
I have no intention of changing my ways, even if they cause issues in our relationship.

Going down paths that I shouldn't take
I sometimes make choices that are not the best for me or our relationship.

Getting shook up but I won't shake
I might get scared or shaken up, but I won't let it affect me or make me change my ways.

'Cause I won't let you break my heart
I won't let you hurt me or affect me negatively.

Won't let us drift apart
I won't let our relationship fall apart or become distant.

No, I know that you got a second face, oh no
I'm aware that you could have different sides or personalities that I might not know about.

No, I won't let you kill my high
I won't let you bring me down or make me feel bad.

You're such a Gemini, cigarettes and apple pie
You have two different sides, like a Gemini, and you also have qualities that are both sweet (apple pie) and dangerous (cigarettes).

Come on girl, you make me hot
You make me feel passionate and aroused.

I don't want it to stop
I don't want our connection or feelings for each other to end.

Come on, make me crave it, girl, I know you know
I want you to make me desire you even more, because I know you have the power to do so.

How to build me up to break me down
You have a way of making me feel confident and then tearing me down emotionally.

You know the run around
You know how to play games or lead me on.

Pour me up until I drown like
I want to drown in my emotions or in alcohol, if it means being closer to you.

You're a map leading to my grave
You are like a guide to my downfall or self-destruction.

Holding my hand like a match in a cave
You provide me with a spark or light in my dark or difficult moments.

Pardon my ways 'cause you could relate
You understand and excuse my negative behavior, because you might have similar traits.

Getting my back back when I lacked the strength
You support me and have my back, especially when I'm feeling weak and vulnerable.

We're compatible most days
We have a good connection and understanding of each other, most of the time.

But we move backwards when we're out phase
We tend to have issues or setbacks when we're out of sync or not on the same page.

Falling apart in the same old ways
Our relationship tends to break down or fail in familiar patterns or situations.

People can talk but they don't change
Others might give us advice or criticism, but it doesn't usually affect our behavior or relationship.

Ah, yeah, yeah, yeah
A repeated phrase throughout the song that adds emphasis or emotion to the lyrics.
