[Verse 1]
I turn the bathroom light on low
Count every mark I never show
A borrowed shirt, a tired face
Still hoping I could take up space
[Pre-Chorus]
If I disappear behind the glass
Would you reach for me at last?
I’m done rehearsing what to say
I need an answer today
[Chorus]
Look at me, don’t look away
I’m more than someone you delay
When every door is closing slow
I need to know before I go
Would you choose me, choose me now?
Not when I’m easy, not somehow
With all the pieces I can’t hide
Choose me with my whole life inside
[Verse 2]
The sink is cold beneath my hands
I make a promise I can stand
No perfect angle, no disguise
No shrinking down to fit your eyes
[Pre-Chorus]
If I say the honest part out loud
Will you stay here in the crowd?
I’ve spent too long beneath your doubt
Tonight I’m finding my way out
[Chorus]
Look at me, don’t look away
I’m more than someone you delay
When every door is closing slow
I need to know before I go
Would you choose me, choose me now?
Not when I’m easy, not somehow
With all the pieces I can’t hide
Choose me with my whole life inside
[Bridge]
No more waiting by the phone
No more calling less than home
The face I feared is still my own
And I won’t leave her here alone
[Beat Drop]
Choose me!
Choose me!
[Final Chorus]
Look at me, I’m still right here
I crossed the room and faced the fear
Let every broken window show
The woman I was scared to know
Would you choose me? I choose me now!
I won’t be softened by your doubt
With all the pieces I can’t hide
I choose this whole life from inside
[Outro]
In the mirror, breathing clear
I’m the one who keeps me here
No more asking to belong
I was waiting all along
