Transparent

(Verse 1)
How dangerous the ones who hug you with a grin,
kiss you on the cheek while sharpening the pin.
They smile in the daylight, sweet and polite,
but sharpen their shadows when you’re out of sight.
They don’t face truth, they bend and pretend,
call you their “brother” while cutting the thread.

(Pre-Chorus)
They say it’s all calm, say everything’s fine,
but chaos is screaming behind that smile of mine.
So they strike in silence, no blood on the floor,
just rumors and whispers behind a closed door.

(Chorus)
Oh, what a shame, what a waste of a soul,
too scared to be honest, so you play a role.
What a misery, hiding behind
stories you build in the back of your mind.
I stay in the light, I don’t need disguise,
I’m clear as the truth you avoid in your lies.
I’m transparent — steady and bright,
such a pity you’re scared of the light.

(Verse 2)
Playing the victim, “I never meant harm,”
but poison still drips from the edge of your charm.
You rewrite the story, you twist every line,
projecting your shadows like they were mine.
But truth has a rhythm, it echoes, it grows,
and sooner or later, everybody knows.

(Bridge)
I won’t carry weight that isn’t my own,
I walk straight ahead on the path I’ve grown.
Clean hands, clear heart, nothing to hide,
you can’t break a soul that stands in the light.

(Final Chorus)
Oh, what a shame, what a fragile disguise,
needing the dark just to feel your size.
What a misery, drowning in fear,
hurting the ones who see you clear.
I stay in the light, steady and right —
I’m transparent…
and you can’t survive in the light.
