Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You bent to stay alive
A crack became a seam
You learned to smile on cue
And call it a clean machine
You kept your name in pockets
Along with old receipts
Some days you wore the first one
Some days the one that eats
[Pre-Chorus]
So tell me where it changes
From shelter to disguise
When does the scar stop hurting
And start looking like your eyes?
[Chorus]
Which one is me now?
Which one is me now?
The one that held the line
Or the one that learned to bend?
Which one is me now?
Which one is me now?
If both can say my name
Where does the real one end?
[Verse 2]
You broke in small directions
To keep the whole thing fed
You gave the room a version
That could get through the day
But every borrowed answer
Leaves fingerprints of fear
And every fixed-up mirror
Shows a stranger getting near
[Pre-Chorus]
So tell me where it changes
From cover to the skin
When does the voice I built
Become the one I’m in?
[Chorus]
Which one is me now?
Which one is me now?
The one that held the line
Or the one that learned to bend?
Which one is me now?
Which one is me now?
If both can say my name
Where does the real one end?
[Bridge]
Maybe it’s not a border
Maybe it’s a thread
Pulled through every breaking
Till the old and new are wed
Maybe survival’s ugly
Maybe it’s the cost
Of carrying a thousand selves
And not knowing what you lost
[Final Chorus]
Which one is me now?
Which one is me now?
The one that held the line
Or the one that learned to bend?
Which one is me now?
Which one is me now?
If both can say my name
Where does the real one end?
Which one is me now?
Which one is me now?
If I survive the splitting
Will I still be me then?

Indie-pop ballad with a pulsing mid-tempo groove, fingerpicked guitar on the verses, warm synth swell in the pre-chorus, and a lift into a soaring chorus; intimate close-mic lead vocal with doubled lines on the hook, soft gang harmonies in the back end, reverse piano swells and breathy risers between sections, polished but human mix with bright top end and a roomy low mid
